@GEO102SUNY This story is about someone who lived in NYC and has taken a large interest in why rent prices have been fluctuating. He talks about his conspiracy of apartment owners filling rooms and lying on reports to keep their rent prices stable. shorturl.at/doyGP

@GEO101SUNY Good Evening! Below is an article that discusses the insane heat wave Phoenix, Arizona! Lasting 31 days, it has broke a new record, exceeding 110 degrees Fahrenheit nytimes.com/2023/07/31/us/…

@GEO101SUNY This map shows all the rivers that flow into the Mississippi River. I found this to be quite interesting I did not realize how many rivers there were connecting to the Mississippi! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississip…

April 2023 was the 4th-hottest April for Earth in NOAA's 174-year record. Not only have the 10 hottest Aprils occurred since 2010 but April 2023 was also the 49th consecutive April and 530th consecutive month with global temps above the 20th-century ave. climate.gov/news-features/…

@GEO101SUNY atmospheric methane ( potent at trapping heat in the atmosphere) has increased by 1.911. 1 parts per billion (ppb). In 2022 methane increased by 14.0 ppb, the fourth-largest annual increase recorded since NOAA’s systematic measurements began in 1983.

@GEO101SUNY This here is a picture of the dramatic temperature change from the past 50 years. We know that greenhouse gases cause a warming affect on the Earth.

@GEO101SUNY Below is an picture of what is called Geographic Information system or short for GIS. A geographic Information System is a mapping system tool powered by computers that collects, examines, saves, manipulates, and displays a range of spatial and geographic data.

@GEO101SUNY This photo here shows an alluvial fan. It is located in Kazakhstan. An alluvial fan happens when a fast-moving mountain stream empties out onto a relatively flat plain.

@GEO101SUNY A natural Kart topography landscape located in Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in Madagascar. It is caused by the dissolution of rocks.

This is an image of a cave in Missouri that shows Karst Topography, Missouri is a karst landscape also known as “The Cave State” because of how much caves are there @GEO101SUNY

@GEO101SUNY This is an image of a the Mammoth Cave, known to be the longest cave system in the world. As shown in the picture, it developed stalactites and stalagmites by the dripping of water from the ceiling.

@GEO101SUNY An example of karst topography in Andalusia, Spain. This landscape formed when water dissolved and eroded into soft rock, creating caves, steep cliffs, and sinkholes.

@GEO101SUNY Below is a photo of Avalanche Lake in Glacier National Park. It sits at the mouth of a U-shaped valley or glacial trough

@GEO101SUNY A very clear look at medial moraines formed from tributary glaciers coming together at Wrangell-St. Elias National Park in Alaska

🌍📈 🏆 We just pushed the atmosphere to a new RECORD HIGH for WEEKLY #CO2 😰 424.40 ppm CO2 at Mauna Loa (via Maunakea) in 17th week of 2023 🏆 Up 4.21 from 420.19 ppm a year ago 😰 @NOAA data gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/we… 🌍 CO2.Earth records co2.earth/co2-records 🌍

@GEO101SUNY Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky. This cave was created through chemical weathering which is heightened due to the amount of vegetation surrounding the entrance of the cave.

@GEO101SUNY Below is a photo of a collapsed cave system found in Clifty Creek, Missouri. It is now a natural bridge!

@GEO101SUNY This is an image of the various sinkholes that have been reported in Florida.

@GEO101SUNY This is an image of a karst spring in Ozark National Scenic Riverways
