Hurricanes have a cause rooted in weather.
They can be influenced by geographic formations and there is some evidence that human induced climate change can influence them as well, but not cause them.

Does catastrophe have weather or geologic or humans cause?
geologic for sure. it is possible that weather may play a role, yet i have not noticed any evidence of human causes for a catastrophe.
How is the geologic time scale different from time scales that show human activities or accomplishments?
The units of geologic time are much longer
Is heavy rain a human or physical cause?
Natural cause
Does a drought have weather geologic or human cause?
If a drought has a geographical cause, it is not called a drought but a desert. Natural deserts tend to occur in the rain shadows of mountains, far from oceans, or under Hadley Cells. With the exception of problems caused by volcanoes, the weather phenomena caused by geographical features usually remains constant. A drought is frequently caused by weather. An El Nino means the Pacific Ocean is warmer off the coast of Peru and the Indian Ocean is cooler off the coast of Africa. More water evaporates and turns to rain when the ocean is warmer. A La Nina means the opposite. Less water evaporates and turns to rain when the ocean is cooler. That creates a drought. In the Western United States, people have sold "water rights," which gives people downstream the rights to unimpeded stream flow. As a result many beaver dams were destroyed. With that destruction, a lot of land dried up. That caused conditions to become dryer. That created a man made drought. In Asia much of the land in the center of the empire of Timerlane suffered from over grazing. That created a drought. Thus, a drought can be caused due to either weather or human activity.
Do hurricanes affect earths surface or the ocean?
The correct answer to that question is BOTH, if the hurricane comes ashore. Hurricanes derive their strength from the temperature of the ocean. As the heat from the water rises, the strength of the storm increases. As the storm increases in strength, it cools the surface of the ocean with wind, rain and (if conditions are right) hail. When hurricanes move over shallow water, they churn up sediments on the ocean floor, which in turn provide a source of nutrients for a variety of marine life. When very strong, they can also destroy coral reefs, which have a negative affect on the many creatures that depend on the reefs for their survival. Hurricanes that achieve "landfall" cause many problems for vegetation, wildlife, coastal features (due to wind and water errosion), transportation, communication, structures and humans. The major threats from hurricanes that come ashore are: Very strong winds (70mph to 200mph) that may damage ships, marinas, knock down power lines, buildings and trees. Storm surges and heavy rains, that cause flooding, that can destroy; beaches, businesses, homes, crops, roads and sometimes human life.
Does hurricanes have weather geologic or human causes?
Hurricanes should be an weather related and geologic in nature
Do hurricanes have weather geological or human causes?
Hurricanes are produce by weather phenomena, though geologic features can influence them.
Does wildfires have weather geologic or human causes?
It's a human and geologic cause.
Does volcanos have weather geologic or humans cause?
in a volcano whatdoes the catastrophe have weather geologic or a human cause
Does a hurricane have human geologic causes?
No. Although geologic features can influence them, hurricanes are produced as a result of certain weather conditions.
Does a tornado have a weather or geologic or human cause?
Tornadoes are ultimately caused by weather, as they are violenlt weather events.
Does the catastrophe have weather geologic or humans?
It depends on the kind of catastrophe. Catastrophes such as hurricanes and tornadoes are caused by weather. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are geologic events. Train wrecks and industrial accidents are human-caused.
Does catastrophe have weather or geologic or humans cause?
geologic for sure. it is possible that weather may play a role, yet i have not noticed any evidence of human causes for a catastrophe.
Are hurricanes weather related geological in nature or causes by humans?
They are not human related. However they are weather related because of the wind that blows to create the hurricane, and they are also geologic in nature.
Does a hurricane have a geologic human or weather cause?
it has a weather cause. ----- The cause of a hurricane is warm water providing power to rising heated air, which produces a cyclonic set of winds because of the rotation of the earth. I would say geologic is the best description of these three.
Why has a hurricane got an effect on human population?
Hurricanes are terrifying, yet beautiful storms. Hurricanes have an effect on the human population because when a Hurricane can change the weather, or bring in dangering winds and rains. It can cause people to die.
Do earthquakes have weather geologic or human causes?
Earthquakes result from stress in the earth's crust, so the are of geologic origin.
