The answer on the test I took said mass wasting was the right answer
Answer: Very Likely
Explanation:
Michigan has had 24 deaths from extreme cold in the last 20 years.
This is a rate of:
= 24 / 20
= 1.2 deaths per year.
For something to be considered ''very likely'' to occur, the chances of that thing occurring needs to be above 90%.
Going by the deaths per year, the probability is more than 90% at 120%. It is therefore very likely that there will be a death from extreme cold.
NOAA's Office for Coastal Management maintains a detailed online interactive mapping tool called Historical Hurricane Tracks at www.coast.noaa.gov/hurricanes. This tool offers users the ability to search and display global tropical cyclone data. The information can also be downloaded in widely-used GIS data formats.
Satellites, reconnaissance aircraft, Ships, buoys, radar, and other land-based platforms are important tools used in hurricane tracking and prediction. While a tropical cyclone is over the open ocean, remote measurements of the storm's intensity and track are made primarily via satellites.
