The next low tide will occur at 12 Noon, because the coastline will turn 90 degrees from the moon.

Explanation:

All around the world, along the coastlines, it can be noticed that everyday the water is rising at some points, and then it is retracting at some points. When the water rises it is called a high tide, while when the water is retracting it is called low tide. Both of these tides occur twice every day.

In this case, we have a high tide occurring at 6 AM, meaning that the other high tide will occur at 6 PM, when the moon circles by 180 degrees from the coastline. The low tide also occurs on every 12 hours, which occurs roughly 6 hours after the high tides, so in this case the low tides will occur at 12 Noon and at 12 Midnight. There are variations among the tides, depending on the relative position of the Earth, Moon, and Sun towards each other, some being:

  • bore tide
  • neap tide
  • spring tide
  • rip tide

Describe/discuss your own views/experiences on the impact of tropical cyclones​
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The effects of tropical cyclones include heavy rain, strong wind, large storm surges near landfall, and tornadoes. The destruction from a tropical cyclone, such as a hurricane or tropical storm, depends mainly on its intensity, its size, and its location. Tropical cyclones remove forest canopy as well as change the landscape near coastal areas, by moving and reshaping sand dunes and causing extensive erosion along the coast. Even well inland, heavy rainfall can lead to landslides in mountainous areas. Their effects can be sensed over time by studying the concentration of the Oxygen-18 isotope within caves.

Environment

After the cyclone has passed, devastation often continues. Fallen trees can block roads and delay rescues, with medical supplies, or slow the repairs to electrical lines, telephone towers or water pipes, which could put other lives at risk for days or months. Stagnant water can cause the spread of disease, and transportation or communication infrastructure may have been destroyed, hampering clean-up and rescue efforts. Nearly 2 million people have died globally due to tropical cyclones. Despite their devastating effects, tropical cyclones are also beneficial, by potentially bringing rain to dry areas and moving heat from the tropics poleward. Out at sea, ships take advantage of their known characteristics by navigating through their weaker, western half.

Hazards are often characterized as primary, secondary or tertiary. A primary hazard involves destructive winds, debris and storm surge. Secondary hazards include flooding and fires. Tertiary hazards include spikes in prices of food and other necessities, as well as long term hazards like water-borne diseases.

What is the difference between hydrological and meteorological drought​
Tomtit [17]
Meteorological drought happens when dry weather patterns dominate an area. Hydrological drought occurs when low water supply becomes evident, especially in streams, reservoirs, and groundwater levels, usually after many months of meteorological drought.
