Wyoming (state) - geography.
The basins, which lie in the rain shadow of mountains, are very dry, with an average annual precipitation of about 250 mm (about 10 in) or less; the Great Plains regionhas an annual average of about 380 mm (about 15 in), and the Black Hills region receives slightly more. Thunderstorms and hailstorms are relatively frequent insummer. The annual snowfall ranges from about 500 mm (about 20 in) in the Bighorn Basin to well over 5,100 mm (over 200 in) in the higher mountains, where annualprecipitatio...

Extrait du journal "Le Monde", du 17 décembre 2010, auteur : Catherine Vincent
D’après les critères morphologiques, physiologiques, comportementaux et écologiques, on peut clairement établir que le Grizzly et l’Ours polaire sont 2 espèces différentes. Puisque ces 2 espèces occupent des niches écologiques différentes, elles ne sont pas censées se rencontrer et se reproduire ensemble. Si on analyse les cartes des aires de répartition des espèces, on constate que le Pizzly a été retrouvé à la frontière de la banquise et des aires de répartitions géographiques de ses 2 «...

Nunavut - Canadian History.
The Arctic Lands is a complex geological area that is centered on the Arctic Ocean. It includes coastal plains, plateaus, and mountains. Coastal plains and plateaus arefound in the western Northwest Territories section of the Arctic Lands, such as on Victoria Island, which is mostly a large, flat plateau. In striking contrast to theserelatively gentle landscapes, the eastern Nunavut section of the Arctic Lands is dominated by a jagged chain of ice-covered mountains. The mountains on EllesmereIsl...

Northwest Territories - Geography.
million years ago by the severe bending (folding) and faulting (breaking) of sedimentary rock that was once part of the Interior Plains. During the Wisconsin Ice Age,alpine glaciers covered the Cordillera, and the movement of the glaciers created razor-sharp peaks and ridges in these mountains. The moving glaciers also createdbroad U-shaped valleys. To the east of the Interior Plains, the ancient rocks of the Canadian Shield are exposed at the Earth’s surface, resulting in a rough, rolling terra...
