Does human activity cause or contribute to development or intensity of tornado?
Currently there is no known connection between human activity and tornado formation and intensity.
What additional climate variables contribute to the picture of human-caused warming?
In addition to human caused variables that contribute to warming, there are several natural variables which also are major factors. These include solar activity, volcano activity and en nino activity.
How the human activities cause weathering of rocks and soil in logging?
I don't know.......my question is... how does erosion contribute to flooding?
How human activities can affect the size and number of floods?
Human activity can contribute to the size and number of floods in many areas. Vegetation, such as trees and grass,protects the ground surface from erosion by taking in much of the water that would otherwise run off. Where this natural ground cover is removed, water can flow more freely across the surface. as a result the likelihood of flodding increases. Logging and the clearing of land for africulture or housing development can increase the volume and speed of runoff, which leads to more frequent flooding. Natural events, such as forest fires, can also increase the likelihood of flooding
How the impact of human activities contribute towards flooding?
The main contributing factors that humans contribute to flooding problems are deforestation and over grazing. In both of these instances too much of the vegetation is being removed, which will cause the land to break away and flood.
Human activity that can increase the risk of mass movement?
this doesn't help you
Which human activity willl most likekly increase the amount of soil erosion?
farming... we over do it....
How did flooding and rich soil contribute to the fertility of the land and gives rise to farming in mesopotamia?
The way flooding and rich soil contribute to the fertility of the land was that Mesopotamia citizens received a little bit of rain. That's when irrigation started. To irrigate their lands, they dug out canals, human-made water ways. This is what gave rise to farming.
What would happen to the temperature of the atmosphere if carbon dioxide increase due to human activity?
It will rise. The temperature of the atmosphere is rising already because carbon dioxide is increasing due to human activity.

Which human activity will most likely increase the amount of soil erosion?
clear-cutting wooded areas
