, ECOCLIMAP land-use and soil information [2], soil carbon [3] and lake depth [4]. Inclusion of ECOCLIMAP is one of the main reason why RCA4 can be applied globally. On the physical side we have modified mainly the land and hydrological processes plus a few modifications in the atmosphere. The soil hydrology Last updated:

OceanographyEnvironment
travel at a speed of 31 m/s or 112 km/hr. A seiche is a standing wave that occurs in lakes and semi-enclosed seas like the Baltic. The wave length for the oscillation in the Baltic Sea between the Bothnian Bay and the Southern Baltic is twice the distance, i.e. 4000 km. The average depth of the global Last updated:
