Vertical rays
开始学习
Rays of sunlight that hit the Earth's surface directly overhead, which can result in intense heat and stronger UV radiation.
Intertropical Convergence Zone
开始学习
A region near the equator where trade winds from the northern and southern hemispheres meet, resulting in warm, moist air and high levels of rainfall.
Trade winds
开始学习

Biodiversity
开始学习
The variety of life on Earth, including the number of different species, genetic diversity within species, and the variety of ecosystems.
Diurnal climate
开始学习
Climate patterns that vary over the course of a day, typically with higher temperatures during the day and cooler temperatures at night.
Nutrient cycle
开始学习
The process by which nutrients are taken up by plants, used for growth and metabolism, and returned to the soil through decomposition and other processes.

Irrigation
开始学习
The process of providing water to crops to support their growth and development.
Overgrazing
开始学习
Grazing livestock on land beyond its carrying capacity, which can lead to soil erosion and loss of plant species.
Soil fertility
开始学习
The ability of soil to support plant growth and development, impacted by factors such as climate, soil type, and human activities.
