The water cycle — technically known as the hydrological cycle — is the continuous circulation of water within the Earth's hydrosphere, and is driven by solar radiation. This includes the atmosphere, land, surface water and groundwater.
Hi. "Tidal wave" suggests a wave associated with the ebbs and flows related to the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun. These rises and falls relative to mean sea level are periodic and easily predictable. But the enormous wave generated by an earthquake is probably even less easy to predict than an earthquake and of no regular (that is, periodic) recurrence that anyone knows of. But I think "tsunami" is not too bad a name for such earthquake-generated waves as tsunami does not suggest any strong link with the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun.
Amount of energy released by the earthquake, and distance from the epicenter. hope that helps!
The correct answer is <span>C. One-half.
That is a massive rise considering that only 7% lived in suburbs in 1900.

The answer is B, the ocean affects their temperatures and helps act as air conditioning, cooling the area near it.
