    Oasis were an English rock band formed in Manchester in 1991. Developed from an earlier group, the Rain, the band originally consisted of Liam Gallagher (lead vocals, tambourine), Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs (guitar), Paul "Guigsy" McGuigan (bass guitar), and Tony McCarroll (drums). Upon returning to Manchester, Liam's older brother, Noel Gallagher (lead guitar, vocals) joined as a fifth member, which formed the band's core and settled line-up. During the course of their existence, they had various line-up changes, though the Gallagher brothers remained as the staple members until the group's dissolution.

    In case some people didn't know the Sahara parts of North Africa actually used to be very dense jungle full of trees until around last ice age it has become a desert due to environmental changes.

      nahor88 you can’t like fly a plane to the middle of the desert. Lemme give you the quick breakdown using Mali as an example. Mali has a lot of gold and Europeans wanted to go get it and trade for it the only problem is Mali was on the west coast of Africa ,very far from Europe yes you could sail but some couldn’t afford that so they went through the desert but they wouldn’t be able to make it so they stopped at oasis along the way and they traded goods for more water and food there to continue their journey on to bigger settlements. Naturally trade popped up. Now you can drive there and other stuff

  • @jordanrodrigues1279
    @jordanrodrigues1279 Před 5 lety +2

    I'm curious what process removes salinity from Siwa's aquifer. The rise and fall of salty layers is an important part of arid ecosystems - rising salt is a major factor in modern humans losing fertile land in subtropical continental areas, such as the US Southwest.
    Subtropical deserts are associated with the subtropical ridges - areas of prevailing high pressure near 30 degrees latitude. Air descending from the upper troposphere is dry (and it gets hot as it is compressed to low altitude pressures). If this pattern occurs over an ocean, the air picks up a lot of humidity, but over a continent it remains very dry.
    That's why if you look at a satellite-imaged globe you'll see that sandy deserts form two bands around the planet.
    These weather patterns follow a cycle as their summer season falls in an out of the Earth's closest approach to the Sun. It's not a huge effect, but it does change how much rain infiltrates these areas and that can be enough for drought tolerant grasslands to establish themselves or to die.
    The Sahara has green centuries and Sandy ones. So does the Sonora. The ancient cliff city ruins there have sockets in the walls sized and spaced to support wooden beams, and all those working people ate somehow. There must have been agriculture and accessible lumber.
    So I would guess that if an oasis has remained fresh enough for several million years, either the sand is very low in salt, or the processional climate has some way of flushing salt out of the aquifer. Probably both - the sand must have been formed containing a normal amount of salt and it leached out over time.
