Why is NYC so susceptible (easily harmed) to hurricanes?

Geography

mina [271]3 years ago

The high buildings in NYC are highly vulnerable to hurricanes. High winds can arrive before the hurricane actually hits, and the higher you go, the earlier you feel those winds. Since the city is so big, it is also harder for so many people to evacuate from the hurricanes. NYC had 578 miles of coastline which is a lot of water around for the hurricanes to travel through.

Mila [183]

  The conclusion is that the pillar corals are heavily dependent on the sunlight in order to survive and flourish.

  In warm waters, other organisms compete with them, and the pillar corals are out-competed, so the sunlight is blocked, partially, or totally, so they are not able to function.

  Because they are not able to function, the pillar corals are dying out, thus living space for other organisms to take their niche in the ecosystem.
