Which rock would be most affected by acid rain?

Rocks containing carbonate (CO2) are highly affected by acid rain. Limestone (CaCO2) is a very common carbonate rock.


What kind of rocks are most affected by acid rain?

Rocks containing calcium carbonate (Ca CO3), example limestone, tend to weather easily. The acid rain reacts with this component in sedimentary rocks and weaken the bonds between its constituent minerals, making it more susceptible to breaking away from the original portion.


What place in the world have the most acid rain?

The region with the most acid rain is generally considered to be East Asia, particularly China and parts of Southeast Asia. This is due to factors such as heavy industrialization, coal burning, and vehicle emissions in these areas leading to high levels of air pollution and acid rain formation.


What are the global winds that blow across most of the continental U.S. called?

The global winds that blow across most of the continental U.S. are called the westerlies. They are winds that blow from west to east at mid-latitudes, typically between 30 and 60 degrees latitude. These winds influence weather patterns and play a role in shaping climate in this region.


Are the aquatic systems being affected by acid rain?

Of course they are. Everything in the environment is affected, actually. But focusing in on the aquatic systems I could give you more information. First of all they are GREATLY affected! The acid rain raises the pH levels of the water. As this happens it kills off many species of aquatic life. The first to go are normally the craw fish and clam species, then most fish die off. Depending on how quickly the acid rain gets to the aquatic system, some species may be capable of actually adapting to the rain acidic water. When it comes to humans, the aquatic systems that are affected WILL affect us! We have to drink that water sooner or later! I understand it's put through filters and cleaned but the acidic water will still affect us.

The weather in continental states can be influenced by a variety of factors such as latitude, altitude, proximity to bodies of water, and prevailing wind patterns. States in the Midwest can be affected by severe storms and tornadoes, while states in the northern region may experience harsh winters with heavy snowfall. In coastal states, the weather can be influenced by ocean currents and tropical storms.
