The volcanic and earthquakes have been noted to be the most influencing factors that have affected the geologic formations in the regions of Beirut over time and scale. Most of Beirut’s rock formations are of the carbonaceous origin influenced by various factors including seafloor spreading and natural earth movement processes.  

The study of geography has many important implications and practical uses. However, in early history or before the advent of modern times, geography was used for many different ends, depending on the time period and the objectives of the rulers of a particular place. In this regard, there was effectively no exact definition of geography as it is known today.

The San Joaquin Valley is still at risk relative to the tow giant pumping stations that provide the south of California with significant amounts of water. If a storm-surge or strong winds of over 150mph were to strike, floods are more likely to occur but on the other hand, the developed landscapes might hold the water preventing any damages.

The construction of the city and the events that preceded the Industrial Revolution has had a great threat to the water reserves. The rivers have subjected to many of the safeguards so as to ensure that there are reliable channels for England and the United Kingdom.

After the recent Tsunami, about seventy volcanoes became active again. 

From the early geologic phases, the atmosphere has always come in contact with the exposed crust of the earth, a process referred to as weathering. This process occurs through a blend of both chemical and mechanical means. Weathering is a common phenomenon and most people have experienced it firsthand.

The use of technology in operations improves the quality of output, efficiency, and presentable, and it is time-saving. All these can be collectively perceived as the attributes making up a product quality or service quality. Use technology can, therefore, make the customers assume that the quality of the service provided is high and of quality. 

Spatial urbanization in China has increasingly posed a discriminatory influence on migrants leading to a rise in hybrids (migrant workers and village-in -the-city) in Guangzhou City. The paper aims at unearthing the influence of power and Positionality and their associated ethical issues to explain this phenomenon. 

During the last decade, there has been an increase in the integration of visual methodologies, with geographical research. This aspect has managed to gain increased attention from geographic researchers. Currently, it is easy for Geographers to access the tools of visual reproduction and production.

Such spatial relations have helped in the development of Guangzhou as an urban area (Ye, 2012, 35). The spatial relations contributed to the development of urbanization in the sense that the two governments- the government of Guangzhou and the government of Foshan- have jointly decided to spur investments in important sectors of the economy.
