Geography

ra1l [238]3 years ago

They are called fringing reefs. They grow directly from shore and form borders along the shoreline. When a fringing reef continues to grow upward from a volcanic island that has sunk entirely below the sea level, an atoll is formed. Atolls are usually circular or oval in shape, with an open lagoon in the center. The fringing reef is the most common type of coral reef. They however tend to be very sensitive to human induced pollution in the water and are easily destroyed by such.

How was the path of Hurricane Ike different than the storm of Galveston 1900
olga_2 [115]

Answer: After the hurricane, Galveston raised the elevation of many new buildings by more than 10 feet (3 meters). The city also built an extensive seawall to act as a buffer against future storms. Despite the reconstruction, the city's status as the premier shipping port was lost to Houston a few years after the disaster. Ike, however, is projected to head west on a path that will take it close to Hispaniola, Cuba, and the Florida Straits.”
