Ablation correct answers when outputs are lost from a glacier due to meltwater, rivers, evaporation, calving, decreasing the size of glaciers (the loss of ice mass) Accumulation correct answers when inputs are added to a glacier due to snow fall and avalanches, increasing the size of glaciers (build-up of ice mass) Albedo Effect correct answers The reflectivity of a surface. Light surfaces reflect more than dark surfaces, they have a greater albedo. Anthropogenic CO2 correct answers Car...

Precipitation - water that falls from clouds and reaches Earth's surface as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Evapotranspiration - The evaporation of water from soil plus the transpiration of water from plants. Runoff - Water that moves across the land surface and into streams and rivers Interception storage - precipitation falls on the vegetation surfaces (canopy) or human cover. temporarily stored. Intercepted water either evaporated directly to the atmosphere, absorbed by the canopy surfaces ...

Mark schemes are prepared by the Lead Assessment Writer and considered, together with the relevant questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the standardisation events which all associates participate in and is the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation process ensures that the mark scheme covers the students’ responses to questions and that every associate understands and applies it in the same correct way. As ...
