Maritime Tropical is the air mass that is normally associated with the formation of hurricanes.
Hope this Helps!
Hurricanes are predicted using a Saffir-Simpson Scale. This scale is used to measure the intensity of hurricane most often than not. However, it may be used to identify a hurricane as well. A hurricane is categorised based on the wind speeds.
74 - 95 mph --> category 1
96 -110 mph --> category 2
111 - 129 mph --> category 3
130 - 156 mph --> category 4
157 mph + --> category 5
Typically, the formation of a hurricane occurs when moist warm air if absorbed from the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean and rises. The moisture will then evaporate further rising and heating until the moist air is twisted and circulation high in the atmosphere.
Answer:
What should be <u>TRUE</u> of the island of <em>Hawaii</em> :
- Scientists in search of ongoing speciation events are more likely to find them here than on the other six large islands.
- Its species should be more closely related to those of nearer islands than to those of farther islands.
- It should have a rich fossil record of terrestrial organisms.
Explanation:
In cases of <em>geographic isolation</em>, and subsequent speciation, produced by dispersal and colonization phenomena we can find the island of Hawaii. Adaptation to these environments can be the trigger for divergence. The <em>large number of species</em> in this archipelago, more than 500, seems to have emerged through<em> migration</em> and diversification. Many of these are endemic to a nearby island, and the subsequent<em> evolutionary divergence.</em>
The volcanic islands, which have never been in contact with the continent, are especially<u> rich in endemic species; </u>the species that inhabit them are descendants of those who arrived in times past and <u>were able to adapt.</u>
Almost ninety years ago, in the south of the island of Hawaii, they revealed some <u>bones </u>that turned out to be the<u> first bird fossils discovered i</u>n the archipelago. The bones were under a flow of prehistoric lava and on a bed of volcanic ash.
In short, the Island of Hawaii is of great interest to scientists and there are always new developments buried years ago by volcanic activity.
The full moon cycle (from one phase to the same phase again), from start to finish, is generally 28 days. That being said, from one phase to its opposite, or one half-cycle, would be approximately 14 days.
