(vt. ka õpik lk 64-65) Rhubarb, sweet vernal, Indian grass, purple coneflower, pampas grass 9. Describe the soil of temperate grassland. (vt. õpik lk 61) The soil of the temperate grasslands is deep and dark. The upper layers are the most fertile because of the buildup of many layers of dead branching stems and roots. This organic mater on the surface and in the dead roots provide a great degree of nourishment for the living plants. 10. Why are temperate grassland soils very fertile? (vt. õpik lk 61) Calfication is the dominat soil-forminf process in semiarid regions. When this process works on loess that itself is rich in calcium, the world’s most fertile soils are created, the chernozems. 11

Traditional Costumes of Estonia In Estonia, traditional costumes are worn on special occasions like song festival or weddings. Women's outfit consists of a striped skirt, white blouse and a hat called 'tanu'(coif). Some prides wear a brooch around their neck. It's a feature, which represents fertile age. The stripes and other small details show the origin of the item. Children usually wear just white linen shirt and trouses or a skirt. When it's cold, they put on a black coat. Men wear navy blue breeches and a jacket. Beneath the jacket they wear a white shirt. They also have a black hat and special footwear called 'viisud'.
taxi or public transport. During summer 2005, you have a possibility to reach Oti Manor by taking a flight from Finland (Helsinki Vantaa Airport) or from Sweden (Stockholm Arlanda Airport) to Kuressaare, where you can rent a car. Oti Manor is less than an hour drive from Kuressaare. HISTORY The oldest manor in Saaremaa, Oti (Peudorf in German) was privatized already in the beginning of the 14th century. In these populated and fertile areas, the first fiefdoms were created. The first information concerning Oti manor dates from the year 1309. It seems that in Saaremaa this manor was in the possession of the Order of Teutonic Knights and, until the Jüriöö uprising, the economic unit of Pöide Order castle.
Global warming means that the temperature keeps going higher. The world is now warmer than at any time since the last Ice Age. The problem of desertification increases every year. More and more fertile areas become useless. Seas, lakes and other bodies of water dry out. One reason why the global warming is happening is that the population is growing and we need to do more work so everyone can feel themselves comfortable. They have enough to eat, new clothes, warm house and so on. Some areas become uninhabitable so people have to move around and maybe even fight for something. For example for clean water. People so far have acted careless and not thinking ahead too far in the future

The Viidumäe Nature reserve is a small area in Saaremaa rich in rare plants. Some of them are unique in the world like Saaremaa yellow rattlebox. NORTH ESTONIA It consists of 5 counties Harjumaa, Raplamaa, Järvemaa, Lääne Virumaa and IdaVirumaa. The land is arable and the soil is fertile. On the northern coast is the Baltic Glint and Ontika is the highest point of it. Harjumaa is a densely populated region with large areas of summer cottages and gardens, children's camps and picnic spots. Estonia's biggest waterfalls are found there. In Harjumaa there is a little town Paldiski which was an important military port. The area surrounding Aegviidu boasts a scenic landscape: the "Estonian Switzerland" is the bestknown skiing centre in North Estonia
Global warming The problem of desertification increases every year. More and more fertile areas become useless. Seas, lakes and other bodies of water dry out. Desertification does not only have an effect on the dry areas but also influences the areas that aren't haunted by the lack of water and land. Desertification has an effect on all of us. It slows down the development of agriculture or puts a total stop to it. The poor living conditions of developing countries drive people to search food somewhere else.

making of the longbows, spears and dagger handles. In the past they were used as landmarks, because of their size and longevity, and their dark branches would make them stand out in the landscape. It is excellent for furniture making, interior, fences, gates, chairs, doors, tables, and rustic furniture. Where the Yew Grows It is also possible to find small trees growing near bigger trees, which transplant well. They prefer a moist, fertile, sandy loam soil, but will grow well in most soils except water-logged ground or sticky wet clay. They also grow well on chalk. They resist pollution and can flourish in the shade of taller trees. Yew trees are often found lining cemeteries and churchyards Ancient yews Yews are slow-growing and long-lived, and are often associated with cemeteries where the trees grow undisturbed.

Tropical rainforest is wetter than tropical deciduous forest. Both of these biomes have a warm climate all year long. Tropical deciduous forest has a well defined dry and a wet season. During the dry season, the trees in tropical deciduous forest lose their leaves. 4. Using the climate diagram describe the climate of the region (tropical rainforest/tropical deciduous forest). 5. Why are tropical rainforest soils not fertile? Because rapid bacterial decay prevents the accumulation of humus. 6. How do the soils in tropical deciduous forest differ from the soils in tropical rainforest? The soil in tdf has more nutrients, because the leaves fall down and trees grow more sparsely. 7. Describe the layers of tropical rainforest. Emergents forest giants, the trees there are 50m or more. Canopy a dence layer, the trees there are 20-30m.

These groups include the Egyptians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, European Crusaders, Mongols from Central Asia, Turks, British, and French. In 1946, the French gave up
In conversation, as in his music, he takes his time to unclutter his thoughts. They come out like poems. "Time for us, is like the time of our own lives, it is temporary. What is timeless is the time of eternal life. That is eternal. These are all high words, and so, like the sun, we cannot really look at them directly, but my intuition tells me that the human soul is connected to both of them -- time and eternity." This is only one of his inspiring thoughts. "On the one hand, silence is like fertile soil, which, as it were, awaits our creative act, our seed," Pärt said. "On the other hand, silence must be approached with a feeling of awe. And when we speak about silence, we must keep in mind that it has two different wings, so to speak. Silence can be both that which is outside of us and that which is inside a person. The silence of our soul, which isn't even affected by external distractions, is actually more crucial but more difficult to achieve."
growing season begins. The humus content gives soil horizons a brown colour. Temperate rainforest: This forest has nutrient-rich soil because there is a lot of dead organic matter on the ground. This dead material is being slowly digested by the fungi, insects, and bacteria that live here. Temperate Grasslands: Calcification is the dominant soil-forming process in semiarid regions. When this process works on a loess that itself is rich in calcium, the world's most fertile soils are created, the chernozems (A Russian term meaning black soil). Taiga: The low temperatures inhibit bacterial and fungal action, so the decomposition rate is low and the leaf litter relatively deep.The soil in the taiga is thin, acidic and not very nutrient rich. It also is rocky. 6. What is permafrost? In geology, permafrost, cryotic soil or permafrost soil is soil at or below the freezing point of water (0 °C or 32 °F) for two or more years

Australia's landmass of 7,617,930 square kilometers is on the IndoAustralian Plate. Surrounded by the Indian and Pacific oceans, it is separated from Asia by the Arafura and Timor seas. It the sixth largest country in area after Russia, Canada, China, the United States and Brazil. It is the flattest and (after Antarctica) the driest of continents, yet it has extremes of There are rainforests and vast plains in the north, snowfields in the south east, desert in the center and fertile croplands in the east, south and south west. About one third of the country lies in the tropics. Mountain ranges run from north to south along the east coast, reaching their highest point in Mount Kosciusko (2,228 m). The western half of the continent is occupied by a desert plateau that rises into barren, rolling hills near the west coast.

These forests are include: o Temperate deciduous forest o Temperate broadleaf and mixed forests o Temperate coniferous forest o Temperate rainforest They have all four seasons - summer, spring, winter and fall. Soil of these forests is fertile and enrich. Canopy in tropical forests is multilayered and continuous, allowing little light penetration. Temperature is on average 20-25° C and varies little throughout the year. Animal species found in these forests are for example rabbits, squirrels, wolf, black bear, mountain lion and bob cat.

Canada extends across the continent of North America, from Newfoundland on the Atlantic coast to British Columbia on the Pacific coast and northward into the Arctic Ocean. Canada shares land borders with the United States to the south and north-west. Canada is a land of great variety. Towering mountains, crystal-clear lakes, and lush, green forests make Canada's far west a beautiful region. Farther inland, fields of wheat and other grains cover Canada's vast prairies. Thes fertile farmlands contrast vividly with the Arctic wastelands to the north. Most of the largest towns and industrial areas lie near the Great Lakes and the St Lawrence River in central Canada. In the east, fishing villages and sandy beaches dot the Atlantic coast. Across the country, Canadians experience many different landscapes from rolling plains and mountains to the cold tundra of the north. Geographically, Canada can be divided into five major regions : the Pacific Region, the Prairie

Their major language is Russian and the major religions are Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Judaism. The capital of Russia is Moscow ("Basic facts about,"). The History of Russia In the early history of Russia people were migrating from less fertile land to more fertile land. They were looking for a better place to live and support their families. The country was not called Russia at that time, but it was working its way of becoming an empire. During the 9th century the Scandinavian people who were called the Varangians crossed the Baltic Sea and went to the Eastern Europe. They settled in the city of Novgorod. They also gained control over Kiev, which is in modern day Ukraine. This city became a big trading centre between Scandinavia and

It is the largest city in New England, the group of States along the northern part of the Atlantic coast. These States were among the first colonies in the 1600s. New Englanders think of themselves as the most moral and intelligent Americans. Boston is their cultural capital. Salt Lake City. It is the capital of the Beehive State, as Utah is called. Utah is mostly in fertile desert, rock and a lake that is too salty to support even fish. Yet the population is growing and it has the highest birthrate on the USA. There are 5 national parks and 14 Rocky Mountain ski resorts. Economy America has the largest economy of any single country in the world. Its people have the highest standard of living of any large country in the world; only a few small countries have higher standards of living. Its economy is still growing. Political system
shelf extends 400 km off the east coast, where the mixing of ocean currents has created one of the richest fishing grounds in the world. Once thought to contain a virtually inexhaustible supply of fish, the Banks are now considered a vulnerable resource that must be wisely managed. The Atlantic provinces are an extension of the Appalachians, an ancient mountain range. Much of the region has low, rugged hills and plateaus, and a deeply indented coastline. Agriculture flourishes in the fertile valleys, such as the Saint John River Valley, New Brunswick, and the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia. Prince Edward Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence has a gently rolling landscape with a rich, red soil.

Queensland is known for its natural riches like huge coalfields, copper, silver, lead. Its capital city is Brisbane, which is the third largest city in Australia. Because it lies in the Northeast part of Australia, its climate is mainly tropical. South Australia is famous as it is the region of fruit farming, vineyards and olive groves. Only the southern coast is fertile, most of the state is arid. Its capital is Adelaide, which is known for the Adelaide circuit. Western Australia is the biggest state in Australia. It is rich in deserts, as the central part of the state is practically a desert in whole and nearly uninhabited. On the other hand, the desert is important for its resources and mining. Western Australian capital is Perth with a population of 1.5 million people. Tasmania is the second most densely populated state

The mainland and larger islands are mountainous and rugged, divided by large fertile upland valleys. Fast- flowing rivers from the highlands descend to the coastal plains. A line of active volcanoes stretches along the north coast of the mainland and continues on the island of New Britain. To the north and south of this central mountain range on the main island lie vast stretches of mangrove swamps and coastal river deltas. /1/ Volcanoes and thermal pools are also found in the southeast of other islands.

Edmonton Corridor, in and between the two major cities. The Rocky Mountains along the southwestern boundary are largely forested. The southern quarter of the province is prairie, ranging from shortgrass prairie in the southeastern corner to mixed grass prairie in an arc to the west and north of it. The central aspen parkland region extending in a broad arc between the prairies and the forests, from Calgary, north to Edmonton, and then east to Lloydminster, contains the most fertile soil in the province and most of the population. Much of the unforested part of Alberta is given over either to grain or to dairy farming, with mixed farming more common in the north and centre, while ranching and irrigated agriculture predominate in the south. The Alberta badlands are located in southeastern Alberta, where the Red Deer River crosses the flat prairie and farmland, and features deep gorges and striking landforms. Dinosaur Provincial
forestry. Food industry is largely based on local agriculture. The production of meat and milk products is the main branch. In the countryside people breed dairy cattle, raise pigs and grow grain, potatoes and vegetables. The main grain crops are rye, oats, barley, wheat, potatoes, fodder crops. Many farms have specialized in vegetable growing. Strawberries are also widely grown and there are many apple orchards in Estonia. The soils are more fertile in the central part and poorer on the islands. Climate and weather. Estonia lies in the northern part of the temperate climate zone and in the transition zone between maritime and continental climate. Estonia has no climate extremes. Because Estonia (and entire Northern Europe) is continuously warmed by the Gulf Stream it has a milder climate despite its northern latitude. The Baltic Sea causes differences between the climate of coastal and inland areas.
Mulgimaa owe to the diligence and tenacity of the local people. Village handicraftsmen and masters have always been honoured. Mulgikapsad (stewed sauerkraut with barley groats), Estonian cheesecakes and kama (a roasted meal-mixture) have not lost their popularity. However, linen growers have now been replaced by cereal grains growers and many farms have specialised on raising sheep or horses. And as the song goes: "Mulgimaa it's a place where life is good. It's a land of vast woods, fertile fields and nature's charms, the home of prosperous Estonian farms..." Tourism and handicraft in Lõuna-Viljandimaa Lõuna- Viljandimaa captivates senses with its beautiful landscapes. Lõuna- Viljandimaa as we know it today stays in the heart of the historic Mulgimaa. Mulgimaa is the home of mountains, deep valleys and lakes, its natural axis is the beautiful old valley of Halliste. Southern Viljandimaa has been the homeplace of mulgi inhabitants who spoke their own
resorts. Winters are generally mild, with the most frequent and prolonged snowfalls in the Scottish Highlands, where it is possible to go skiing. If it does snow heavily in other parts of Britain, the country often comes to a standstill. Trains, buses and planes are late. Contrary to popular opinion, it doesn't rain all the time. There is certainly steady rainfall throughout most of the year, but the months from September to January are the wettest. Thanks to the rain Britain has a richly fertile countryside which is famous for its deep green colour. History The first inhabitants were Iberians and Celts who settled on the land and were often at war with eaeh other. In AD 43 the Roman Emperor Claudius invaded, and made Britain a Roman province. Julius Caesar had previously visited Britain to have a look around. The Romans stayed for three hundred years, and built villas, roads and towns. Many Roman remains can be visited in Britain today

Since they were not landing within the jurisdiction of the Virginia Company, they had no Charter to govern them. Mayflower Compact In the landmark Mayflower Compact of 1620, the Pilgrims decided that they would rule themselves, based on majority rule of the townsmen. This independent attitude set up a tradition of self-rule that would later lead to town meetings and elected legislatures in New England. Without good harbors or extensive tracts of fertile land, however, Plymouth became a colony of subsistence farming on small private holdings once the original communal labor system was ended in 1623. Puritan Colony in Plymouth, New England; Puritan ethics and ideology The four main convictions of Puritanism were that personal salvation was completely dependent upon God, that the Bible was the final authority and guide to good Christian life, that the church was to be organized from the scripture and that society was a single, unified entity
Great Slave (which is also the deepest), Lake Winnipeg, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. There are also a lot of rivers in Canada. The longest river is the Mackenzie River which is 4241 kilometers long. It runs through the Northwest Territories. Other large and important rivers are the St. Lawrence River, the Yukon River, the Columbia River, the Nelson River, the Churchill River and the Fraser River. Nature. Canada's land ranges from fertile agricultural plains in the south to freezing tundra in the north. The southwest of Canada has a mild climate. Cold winters characterize most of the rest of Canada. The magnetic North Pole is within Nunavut. There are five biomes in Canada: the Arctic Biome, the Tundra, the Taiga Biome, the Prairies and the Deciduous Forests. The Arctic biome is cold, windy and the land is permafrost. There are long periods of darkness and light. The growing season is very short
exceedingly poor in humus. The available water supply in the metric profile of arable soils at the beginning of vegetation period varies from 140 to 255 mm. Gleyic and gley soils occupy the large areas in the West-Estonian depression, in the Peipus Lowland and Hiiumaa. In cental Estonia soil conditions are relatively favourable for agricultural production. On the other hand in the north and south - east of Estonia and on the islands occupy less - fertile soils. In drawing up plans of development and planning land use local self - goverments should take account of concrete natural conditions more than before. Also, more attention should be given to alternative possibilities of land use.

Gold images of the flower, as well as seeds, were taken back to Europe early in the 16th century. The Giant sunflower (Hlianthus giganteus) is native to Connecticut. They can grow to be between 3 and 12 feet tall. Their flower heads can be between 2 to 3 inches wide. They are most commonly found in valleys with wet meadows or swamps. The Giant sunflower grows between July and October. To grow well, sunflowers need full sun. They grow best in fertile, moist, well-drained soil with a lot of mulch. In commercial planting, seeds are planted 45 cm (1.5') apart and 2.5 cm (1") deep. Sunflower "whole seed" (fruit) is sold as snacks and can be processed into a peanut butter alternative, Sunbutter, especially in China, the United States, the Middle East and Europe. In Russia it is probably the most wide spread snack.[citation needed] It is also sold as food for birds and can be used directly in cooking and salads.
increase in labour productivity has been limited. The production of milk and meat products is the main branch. In the countryside people breed dairy cattle, raise pigs and grow grain, potatoes and vegetables. The main crops are rye, oats, barley, wheat, potatoes and fodder crops. Many farms have specialized in vegetable growing. Strawberries are also quite widely grown and there are many apple orchards in Estonia. The soils are more fertile in the central part and poorer on the islands. Estonia's GDP (gross domestic product) grew rapidly during the second half of the 1990s and the country now has a solid level of formal education. At the same time, the average life expectancy is among the lowest in the European Union. The most important problems for Estonia today are unemployment, poverty and social exclusion. 13.Biggest cities The capital of Estonia is Tallinn. The closest major city to Tallinn is the Finnish

Together with his former schoolmate he set up a printing firm, joining him as a sleeping-partner. For two years he suffered from very serious attacks of ill-health. He almost died. And he still continued receiving visitors, who kept coming and going all the time. His publishing firm went bankrupt. He worked for the rest of his life, trying to clear off his enormous debt. His friends offered help, but he refused. He would not rest till his health failed altogether. He was a very fertile writer and died on the 21 st of September in 1832.
History. The first inhabitants in Australia are the Aborigines who came there about 60000 years ago. The first known Europeans to arrive in Australia were the Dutch. William Jaanzsoon tried to reach the East Indies, but landed in western Australia in 1611. The Dutch gave a poor account of Australia considering it to be and arid land inhabited by fierce savages. Abel Tasman was also a Dutch sailor and he discovered Tasmania. Captain James Cook discovered the fertile eastern coast in 1770 and had a more favourable outlook. He explored the coast and named some most important features, such as Botany Bay, for instance. Australia was called Terra Australis Incognita before 1770 and it means `southland'. After the disgraceful loss in the American War of Independence, Britain looked to establish new penal settlements to replace the North Atlantic colonies. The first fleet of 11 ships with 1500 aboard, half of them convicts, arrived at Botany Bay
temperatures are near -15°C (5°F), but can drop below 40°C (40°F) with severe wind chills. Coastal British Columbia is an exception and enjoys a temperate climate with a mild and rainy winter. On the east and west coast average high temperatures are generally in the low 20°C, while between the coasts the average summer high temperature range between 25°C to 30°C with occasional extreme heat in some interior locations exceeding 40°C. Canada's land ranges from fertile agricultural plains in the south to freezing tundras in the north. The southwest of Canada has a mild climate. Cold winters characterize most of the rest of Canada.
