paper 1 is content is complete, the rest isn't but all of the case studies are done
debates: disease dilemmas and hazardous earth (pretty much only case studies for hazards)
Sample Data
| Front | impacts of temperature on the carbon cycle in the tundra (links to seasonal changes) |
| Back | low temperatures → unavailability of liquid water most of the year + few nutrients in rocks → little plant growth → small biospheric store low photosynthesis + NPP on average across the year growing season lasts for barely 3 months, but there are long daylight hours in the summer low temperatures → slow decomposition + respiration → slows the flow of CO2 into the atmosphere |
| Front | how are geos formed? |
| Back | geos - narrow, steep-sided inlets weak points (joints and faults) are eroded more rapidly by wave action than more resistant areas around them (esp. by hydraulic action) leading to inlets or crevices formingsometimes they form from tunnel-like caves that suffer roof collapse total roof collapse - geopartial roof collapse - blowhole

| Front | how does the UN define short-term and long-term migrants? |
| Back | short-term migrant = a person who moves for at least three months but less than a yearlong-term migrant = a person who moves to a country other than his or her usual resident for a period of at least a year |
