.... in the Earth's magnetic field occur at trenches. Precision measurements reveal that the force of gravity generally is lower than normal. Small quantities of brown or red clay, which are signs of organic remains, volcanic ash and lapilli, and coarse, graded layers are found in the trench. Large amounts of remains cannot build up because they either are dragged into the Earth's interior or are distorted into folded masses and molded into new material of the continents. Deep trench in the sea bed indicating the presence of a destructive margin (produced by the movements of plate tectonics). The dragging downwards of one plate of the lithosphere beneath another means that t ....

Winds can carry the pollutants thousands of kilometers away from their source. The British government has recognized that sulfur emissions from power plants in the United Kingdom are contributing to acid deposition in Scandinavia. Canadian emissions contribute substantially to in the northeastern United States, for example, and much of the sulfur falling in eastern Canada is believed to originate in the United States. In 1986 the U.S. National Academy of Sciences acknowledged that from U.S. sources had become a serious problem in the eastern United S ....
