Geography is just physics slowed down, with a couple of trees stuck in it. - Terry Pratchett



Notice Board



Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. Read more...

  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.

Elevation, climate, distance, and politics.

Delaware is pretty much a sandbar with corn off of Maryland's coast.

Neither one of you are

How the hell is Alaska at half the elevation of Hawaii? There's like a shit load of mountains in Alaska

[–] proudblond@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Average. There’s a shit ton of mountains (volcanoes) in Hawaii too and it does not take long to go from peak to beach.

Nevada is also the most mountainous US state in terms of the amount of mountain ridges / elevation changes, but that does not mean that the mountains are particularly tall. They have no 14ers, unlike Colorado, but less flat area overall

Hawaii is 100% old volcanos

Landlocked states have an advantage because there’s not a lot of land near 0 elevation.

This is the second link that I’m unable to see mBin. What’s the reason?

[–] Innerworld@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not sure, but the URL is the image’s address. You can easily get to it in a browser by clicking the title of the post on Lemmy.

[–] wildncrazyguy138@fedia.io 0 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Sad to say, there is no image either.

Something specific to this instance perhaps as other lemmy instances show images with posts.

Though not your issue, thanks for replying. The post sounded interesting.
