The North Pacific Garbage Patch on a continuous ocean map. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch formed gradually as a result of ocean or marine pollution gathered by ocean currents. [39] It occupies a relatively stationary region of the North Pacific Ocean bounded by the North Pacific Gyre in the horse latitudes. The gyre's rotational pattern draws ...
GPGP may refer to: Great Pacific Garbage Patch , or Pacific Trash Vortex, a rotating ocean current containing marine litter Generalized Partial Global Planning (computer science), see Task analysis environment modeling simulation (TAEMS)
A recent study published in the journal Scientific Reports on Thursday, March 22, found that the GPGP has grown to more than 600,000 square miles, which is twice the size of Texas or three times ...
Canada covers 9,984,670 km 2 (3,855,100 sq mi) and a panoply of various geoclimatic regions, of which there are seven main regions. [9] Canada also encompasses vast maritime terrain, with the world's longest coastline of 243,042 kilometres (151,019 mi). [20] The physical geography of Canada is widely varied.
The Indian Ocean Garbage Patch on a continuous ocean map centered near the south pole. The Indian Ocean garbage patch, discovered in 2010, is a marine garbage patch, a gyre of marine litter, suspended in the upper water column of the central Indian Ocean, specifically the Indian Ocean Gyre, one of the five major oceanic gyres.
This template creates a link to the Canadian Government Geospatial Data Extraction web page to plot a National Topographic System (NTS) map sheet bounding box when the template is given an NTS identifier or latitude and longitude.
Module:Location map/data/Canada is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on a Lambert conformal conic projection map of Canada. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
