Chapter 37, Problem 1FFT
Summary Introduction
To determine: The consequences of the climatic cycle on vicariance of ocean island that has both mountains and valleys when sea level is high.
Introduction: The climatic cycle is an occurrence of an event of a change in climate at a time of period. Vicariance is a process of separation of geographic species of a geographic range like mountains and valleys.
