answer questions 3 and 4 using the examples above
Explanation / Answer
Land or Ocean
Glaciation, Oxygen Isotope, Sea-level changes

Summary
Glaciation over past geologic time has two theory- one is Milankovitch orbital theory where a change in the orbital parameter is considered and another is the Antarctic surge hypothesis where the Earth's albedo increased due to a surge of Antarctic ice sheet in the southern ocean. The last interglacial maximum at 125 kyr and then decline with cooling of the North Atlantic, and with cooling of the North Atlantic that triggered a succeeding ice age. The raised coral reefs of Huon Peninsula, Papua New Guinea, contain a particularly good record of the interval 140–105 kyr which providing oxygen isotope and sea-level data that seem to require an Antarctic surge at 120 kyr, and which also have a role of the Milankovitch factor in it.
Atmosphere
Urban rainfall, atmospheric boundary layer

Summary
Planetary boundary layer over an urban area is heterogeneous and has an implication of energy budget, water budget, and weather phenomenon. This layer has the direct effect on human life and defined as the layer from canopy layer to bottom cloud surface. Doppler lidar which can measure above canopy layer properties has been used for the study of the urban atmospheric boundary layer, considering the impact of a high-rise building. In-situ surface based remote sensing, complex numerical analysis succeeded to show the balance between interaction such as urban heat island, convectional rainfall etc. The study found that the urban weather is 10° warmer than rural area, attracting the more precipitation over it. Limitation including aerosol’s negative effect needed to be further researched.
