Write a short note of physical factor of the earth
Answers
Answer:
Physical Factors
- 1. Relief and landforms
Lowland plains, flat river valleys and deltas and volcanic areas with fertile soil tend to have high population densities. Mountainous areas with steep slopes and poor quality soil tend to have low population densities.
- 2. Weather and climate
Temperate areas which experience few extremes of weather and climate tend to be more attracted than areas which experience extremes. Areas which are very dry, very cold or very wet tend to have sparse populations whereas areas which have a moderate climate with evenly distributed rainfall or with monsoon type climates have denser populations.
- 3. Soil type and quality
Areas which have rich, fertile soils allowing successful agriculture tend to have higher population densities than areas which have poor quality soils have sparse populations. Good quality soils may be found in low lying areas such as river flood plains and deltas where silt is deposited; in volcanic areas; in areas which have a high natural humus content.
- 4.Vegetation
Some types of vegetation make the development of settlement more likely, e.g. grasslands. Areas with particularly dense rainforest, coniferous forests or those with little vegetation tend to have sparse populations.
- 5. Raw materials/natural resources
Areas with a wealth of natural resources such as oil, coal or minerals may have higher population densities than areas which do not. It is important to remember though that natural resources may be found in otherwise harsh environments and that they may be traded and exported/used in areas other than where they are extracted.
- 6. Natural threats
These may affect population density as people may try to avoid areas where pests, threatening animals and diseases are particular risks.
