Question

Describe the location of Marajo islannd using the graticule

Answer 1

Explanation:

Marajo is a large delta island in the state of Para,Brazil. The island is bordered by the mouth of the Amazon river to the west and northwest, the Atlantic Ocean to the northeast and by the Pará River, a distributary of the Amazon to the east. From approximately 400 BC to 1600 AD, Marajó was the site of an advanced Pre-Columbian society called the Marajoara culture, which may have numbered over 100,000 people at its peak. Today, the island is known for its large water buffalopopulation, as well as the pororoca tidal boreperiodically exhibited by high tides overcoming the usual complex hydrodynamic interactions in the surrounding reaches of Amazon delta.
