Which rocky intertidal zone, also called the super tidal zone, is only covered by water during strong storms?
Alex777 [14]

spray zone is the  rocky intertidal zone, also called the super tidal zone, is only covered by water during strong storms.

The topmost region where the marine ecology and terrestrial ecosystem converge is known as the Spray Zone. It is a transitional area, and the breadth and height vary from one location to the next. In the image above, a rock with a few weakly growing terrestrial plants meets a pine forest. The water is close to the bottom of the grey rock wall.

The organisms that dwell in the Spray Zone must be resilient to desiccation (drying out), salt spray, wind, and sporadic surf action. The terrestrial plants that you can see growing between the pine forest and the rock can withstand salt and set roots in fissures and fractures where soil has been trapped and stabilized. Low species diversity can be seen in this area. Do you recall the dominant organism in the spray zone? Let's get to know this plant, hint.

What would you call a system that develops on the coast and tracks along the coast towards higher latitudes
user100 [1]
Tropical oceans spawn approximately 80 tropical storms annually, and about two-thirds are severe (category 1 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson scale of intensity). Almost 90 percent of these storms form within 20° north or south of the Equator. Poleward of those latitudes, sea surface temperatures are too cool to allow tropical cyclones to form, and mature storms moving that far north or south will begin to dissipate.

Similarities between Africa and Europe
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Europe and Africa have been linked together in evaluating the state formation process. Both regions have similarities, strengths, weaknesses, and room for improvement. To this day both regions are far from perfect. Some light can be shed on this subject, by evaluating Europe and Africa’s state formation process, evaluating what party benefits, and briefly explaining two economic consequences of European colonialism in Africa. Problems began for Africa when there was the “scramble for Africa. Africa was extremely divided throughout the continent. There was no nation intact. Even though they were divided into colonies, they still had no sovereignty.
