Answer:

explained below.

Explanation:

b) Urbanization decreases  the lag time because the  loss of the rainfall decrease as the water absorbed by the ground decreases and water reaches to the river very quickly.

c) In urbanization the runoff occurs for small period of time because there is no hindrance in the flow of the rainfall so the runoff reaches very quickly to the water body.

d) Intense rainfall in urban area often experience the flash flood condition because there no absorption of water by the ground, trees are less so which does not lead to perception of water by leaves of the tree hence all the rainfall is basically converted into runoff and city does not have system to act on the situation which lead to flash flood condition.

Explain how increased ocean temperatures increases the strength of hurricanes
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The rising of warm, moist air from the ocean helps to power the storm. Two other factors may also be contributing to the rising intensities of hurricanes. First, warm air holds more water vapor than cold air—and the rising air temperatures since the 1970s have caused the atmospheric water vapor content to rise as well.
