Virunga National Park is a national park located on the border of Uganda. Virunga National Park is a group of volcanoes with similar properties. There are stratified volcanoes such as Muganga and Sagahita and caused a large-scale eruption in 1994. Because of this, Virunga National Park is divided into a narrow and long burn mountainous area. Also, the volcano features topography such as lava caves and volcanic lakes, and fertile volcanic soils create various ecosystems, which are home to animals and plants such as mountain gorillas. When mountains in the Earth undergo large-scale volcanic eruptions like Virunga volcano, it affects the entire climate of the planet, and I would appreciate it if you could answer about the climate change caused by the Virunga volcano! And I'm curious about the lava caves in Virunga National Park. If you have any pictures, please send me!
The Kashbi Royal Tomb is a structure that contains the traditional culture of the Ugandan people. The D-shaped main courtyard runs through a gap in the river wall, which surrounds the courtyard and is connected by nine buildings. This layout of the space of the royal tomb shows the best appearance of existing royal palaces and structures. It also reflects the achievements of technology that have been developed for centuries.
1. Korea's weather these days
Korea can see cherry blossoms, the representative flower of spring, blooming these days. As such, Korea shows a rather chilly spring day but warm spring weather during the day. The daily temperature range is characterized by a large range of temperatures, with the lowest temperature in the morning between 4 and 11 degrees, and the highest temperature in the day between 17 and 25 degrees.
2. Expanding to climate change or environmental issues
In Korea's spring, the concentration of fine dust from China is high. In March, the early spring, the concentration of fine dust is the highest in the year. Fine dust is caused by warm mobile high pressure affecting the Korean Peninsula in early spring. As the mobile high pressure stays on the Korean Peninsula, the flow of air flows is stabilized, weakening the wind, and fine dust from Korea and fine dust from China cannot escape, which is why fine dust cannot spread upward and is trapped. In order to reduce the concentration of fine dust in spring, efforts are being made to limit the output of thermal power plants and to crack down on industrial complexes where air pollutant emission facilities are concentrated.
3. Uganda's Environmental Policy + Questions
Nowadays, when global warming is causing huge environmental changes, many countries are putting in place policies to protect the environment. In Uganda, which has vast natural landscapes enough to be called the pearl of Africa, the National Environment Agency of Uganda has announced the protected areas by designating a list of all wetlands in the country to reduce the adverse effects of climate change and protect the environment. In addition, Article 36 of Uganda's National Environmental Protection Act provides for the protection of wetlands. In wetlands, no one can build or own a wetland, either on the ground or underground.
Q: Conservation experts say that wetland protection policies have prevented Uganda from experiencing excessive water bombs dropping during the rainy season, and one in five fish in Lake Victoria in Uganda is facing problems with microplastics, such as consuming plastic. Is there a policy related to microplastics?
