PLEASE HELP ME I WILL MARK BRAINLEIST natural disaster is a natural event that can cause great damage and/or loss of life. Flood

s, earthquakes,
tsunamis, forest fires, tornadoes, and hurricanes are all natural disasters.
Hurricanes are the most violent storms on Earth. Depending on where they occur, they can be called
typhoons or cyclones. Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters near the equator. Most hurricanes
happen in the fall because the ocean waters have been warmed all summer long.
The warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface. As the warm air rises, less air is
near the surface, which makes an area of low pressure. Air from surrounding areas pushes into the low
pressure area and becomes warm and moist—that air rises, too. As the warm air continues to rise, air
swirls in to take its place. The moist air rises and cools off, making clouds form. The heat from the ocean
and the water evaporating from the surface make the whole system of clouds and wind spin and grow.
The system rotates faster and faster, and an eye forms in the middle. The eye is calm. If the rotating
winds reach 39 miles per hour, the storm is called a tropical storm. When the winds reach 74 miles per
hour, the storm is called a tropical cyclone, or a hurricane.
When hurricanes hit land, they become weaker because they no longer are above warm ocean water. As
they move inland, they can drop many inches of rain. The winds may cause much damage before the
hurricane dies out.
Tropical cyclones are categorized according to their wind speeds, the damage they create on land, and
the storm surge, which is a rising of the sea caused by cyclones. Hurricanes can cause floods with the
rain they bring onshore. The winds cause great damage, knocking down trees, power lines, and buildin

This is the horizontal movement of air caused by heating from the sun and rotation of the planet.
Illusion [34]

The answer is;  Wind

They drive atmospheric circulation. The sun does not heat the earth evenly. The parts that are heated up more form the low-pressure systems where air masses move in from high-pressure systems to form winds. These air masses are also deflected by Coriolis effect caused by earth’s rotation.

Why are rainforests so biodiverse and what are the implications of this for the ecology of the plants and animals living there?
Anna11 [10]

Explanation:

The rainforests typically have high biodiversity i.e it has large covers of flora and fauna.

The tropical rainforests are considered to be the oldest biome on earth and that is why they have high biodiversity also there fact is the geographical area of these rainforests are pretty enormous and widespread across the globe.

the tropical rainforests provides equitable climate i.e good amount of rainfall and warm temperature which is a optimum conditions for plants and animal species to survive and also features the best conditions for regular food supplies and growth in natural biodiversity.

many different sources of food and types of shelters are also available in the tropical rainforest, fulfilling the conditions for a vast varieties in natural biodiversity. another important factor that the situations arises in this areas makes way for the new species such as natural disturbance and presence of mountain regions makes home for the refugee species to survive and live.

so these are the reasons why rainforests are typically so biodiversed.

plants and animals ecology in the rainforest has not been in the perfect condition which use to be some decades back it is worsening with time and is a matter of concern.

Tropical rainforests loss is a major environment concern today as because of global climate change has caused major deforestation in the tropical areas. people's influence on the rainforest is also a big problem to watch for.they have started clearing these huge forest cover for wood for furniture  and for agriculture and cattle grazing. apart from these issues extinction of species due to global warming has also taken place.

Increase in green house gases and change in natural water cycle have started effecting the natural environment of these rainforests and so tropical rainforests today is big environment concern, as plants and animal's ecology has been disturbed.and losing of natural habitat.
