How would a drought affect green sea turtles?
A drought would have little or no effect on them, because they live in the ocean, which droughts cannot affect.
How would a decrease in a evaporation from the ocean affect the drought?
It would mean that there would be less water vapor available to condense into clouds and the drought would continue.
How would a decrease in evaporation from the ocean affect the drought?
A decrease in evaporation from the ocean would lead to less moisture in the atmosphere, resulting in reduced precipitation. This can exacerbate drought conditions as there would be less water available for replenishing soil moisture and sustaining vegetation. Overall, it would contribute to the persistence and severity of the drought.
What is the main cause of drought in the sahel?
The main cause of drought in the Sahel region is the variability of rainfall patterns, which are influenced by factors such as climate change, ocean temperatures, and atmospheric circulation patterns. Human activities, such as deforestation and overgrazing, can also contribute to desertification and exacerbate drought conditions in the region.
What is the combination of temperature wind and water in the Pacific Ocean that causes heavy rains in some areas and drought in others?
El Nino

Does Droughts 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.
