No, but global warming is predicted to cause floods and may already have contributed to some of the recent record floods. Global warming is also predicted to cause prolonged droughts in other regions.

Yes, very likely. The extra warmth in the atmosphere is energy, and this is released by giving extra force to weather "events" like cyclones and floods.

Melting land ice lifts sea levels, and warming oceans expand. This will cause flooding of low-lying coastal lands.

No. Super typhoons will happen with or without climate change. Some models suggest that the number of intense typhoons may increase, but no single event can be attributed to climate change.

No, it would not. However, cutting trees causes global warming. Global warming causes the polar ice caps to melt. When the ice caps melt, the sea level would rise.
