Answer: Hurricanes generate strong winds that can completely defoliate forest canopies and cause dramatic structural changes in wooded ecosystems. Animals can either be killed by hurricanes or impacted indirectly through changes in habitat and food availability caused by high winds, storm surge, and intense rainfall.
A hurricane can cause extreme damage to the biosphere and the geosphere. A hurricane can leave water standing therefore sinking itself into the geosphere. The biosphere can be permanently effected because it can kill, injure, and destroy the biosphere and what the biosphere creates (buildings, parks).
