How is weather change responsible for natural disasters?
Droughts and floods are typically caused by changes in precipitation. Tornadoes are caused by colliding pressure systems (more complicated than that). Hail is caused by updrafts. Not all natural disasters are caused by weather (ex. volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis are caused by tectonics). Global weather change (climate change) shifts weather patterns from their 'normal' positions meaning that many biomes are significantly altered.
What are semi-tides?
Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and moon
What is a trait or genetic disorder caused by Polygenic inheritance?
A polygenic trait is a trait which multiple genes affect. An example would be skin color, the combined affects of several genes determine your base pigment shade. Polygenic traits are caused by a combination of genes.
What causes Saturn's rings orbit Saturn?
Orbits are caused by the force of gravity combined with the speed of the object in the orbit. Saturn's rings consist of millions of small rocks in orbit round Saturn.
Which is not caused by the combined effects of nicotine tar and carbon monoxide on the cardiovascular system?

What are down drafts?
Downdrafts are damaging winds on or near the ground. They are called downbursts or microbursts if caused by a thunderstorm which they usually are
Are tornadoes caused by updrafts?
Not directly. A tornado forms in the updraft of a thunderstorm, but other forces, such as a downdraft are at work.
Spinning of the earth causes wind to?
The spinning of the Earth is probably a very minor component in the generation of the winds, although the spinning does distribute the primary power source for the winds, which is the Sun. The Sun's light heats up areas of the Earth, causing updrafts, and since it can't all go up, there are downdrafts to compensate. The changing heat caused by sunlight causes turbulent air flow.
The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis combined with its movement around the?
The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis combined with its movement around the SUN.
What are the key features of a Haboob?
Haboobs are very strong dust storms. Wind speeds can be up to 50mph. They appear to be a wall of dust, and can be thousands of feet high. Haboobs are caused by downdrafts near thunderstorms.
Why does weather usually become cool and clear after a severe thunderstorm?
Weather becomes cool and clear after a thunderstorm because of the instability in the air along the "frontal boundary" between warm air and cooler air pushing in behind it. The reason it usually becomes cool after a thunderstorm is because after the storms have settled, the jet stream has pushed the warmer air further east and the cooler air has moved in its place. Thunderstorms contain updrafts and downdrafts. The downdrafts (caused by falling precipitation) drag cold air down from the top of the storm. When this air hits the ground it spreads out in all directions. The air from this downdraft moving in the direction of the storm is called a "gust front" and arrives just ahead of it and brings a nice cool breeze on a hot day.

The rising and falling of the ocean surface caused by the moon's pullof gravity is what?
You are thinking of the tides. However, they are not caused by the Moon alone, but by the combined pulls of the Sun and Moon.
