Global Perspective
Hint: For Questions 6-9, provide the weathering regime for a given location based on where the mean annual precipitation and mean annual temperature for that location plot on Figure 1. For the geographic context for a given location, you may type its name (or latitude and longitude) in the search bar at the top left hand side of the viewer window and zoom to the site.
6. What is the dominant weathering In Bangkok, Thailand (28°C, 145cm)?
A. Moderate chemical
B. Strong chemical
C. Moderate chemical with frost action
D. Very slight weathering
7. What is the dominant weathering in New Delhi, India (25°C, 80cm)?
A. Moderate chemical to very slight weathering
B. Strong chemical
C. Moderate chemical with frost action
D. Strong physical

Hint: For #8, if you find that the precipitation and temperature plot within the “No Such Environment” field of Figure 1, estimate the weathering type for the location by selecting the closest viable option on the diagram.
8. What is the dominant weathering at 19°10'21.78"N, 96° 7'59.77"W (25°C, 236cm)?
A. Moderate chemical
B. Strong chemical
C. Moderate chemical with frost action
D. Strong physical

9. What is the dominant weathering at 58°18'7.00"N, 134°25'11.00"W (5°C, 140cm)?
A. Moderate chemical
B. Strong chemical
C. Moderate chemical with frost action
D. Strong physical

Tower Karst
Note: The only questions for the tower karst section of the lab are 25 and 26 (below). This portion of the lab also allows you to view a slope profile of a tower karst landscape (and I encourage you to do so), but there are no questions related to the slope profile that you need to answer.
25. What land use is found throughout the valleys? (Hint: you may have to pan around the image).
A. Commercial buildings
B. Industrial complexes
C. Agricultural fields
D. Golf courses
26. Would you expect to find many caves present in the tower karst landscape? Hint: Remember to consider the information in the short slide set “Lab05_Karst_Tips” when responding to this question.
A. Yes, because caves are a common feature of karst landscapes
B. No, because erosion has exposed the caves
C. Yes, because high water levels create caves
