Hurricanes can cause significant coast erosion. Flooding resulting from heavy rains can alter river channels.
Tornadoes can destroy vegetation, but rarely cause significant amounts of soil erosion.
yes they do and so do glaciers, hurricanes, tornadoes and many other things
Yes, but the chances of such an occurrence are extremely low. Hurricanes often produce tornadoes, but more often in their outer regions beyond the area of hurricane conditions (sustained winds of at least 74 mph). Hurricanes and tornadoes are not related to earthquakes in any way known to science. Many area that are prone to large earthquakes to not typically see hurricanes or tornadoes very often.
Hurricanes don't have funnels; tornadoes do. However, in both cases air moves up from the surface.
Terrestrial phenomena are natural events or occurrences that take place on Earth's surface or within its atmosphere. Examples include earthquakes, lightning strikes, volcanic eruptions, and weather patterns like hurricanes and tornadoes.
90% of hurricane deaths are drownings. The most dangerous feature of a hurricane is the storm surge. This is a bulge on the surface at the ocean that can cause heavy coastal flooding. Hurricanes also produce torrential rain that can lead to landslides and more flooding. Hurricanes also produce very strong winds that can knock down trees and damage or destroy buildings. Finally, severe thunderstorms can form in the outer bands of a hurricane, wome of which can produce tornadoes.

The movement of air mass over Earth's surface causes changes in weather patterns, including the formation of high and low pressure systems, wind patterns, and precipitation. These movements can lead to the development of storms, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and thunderstorms.
Tornadoes can shape the Earth's surface by creating paths of destruction through their high winds and intense pressure changes. They can uproot trees, strip vegetation, and even move large objects. This can lead to changes in the landscape and patterns of erosion.
It can be found in areas where temperature changes often or where air of different temps and densities collide. These create high winds, often tornadoes and hurricanes. That is where high winds can be found but wind occurs everywhere along the surface of the earth.
Hurricanes don't have funnels; tornadoes do. However, in both cases air moves up from the surface.
Hurricanes form when clusters of thunderstorms move over tropical ocean water. These clusters then organize and intensify. Tornadoes most often form when thunderstorms encounter strong wind shear, which is when the speed and/or direction of the wind changes with altitude. The storms themselves usually occur when air masses of very different temperature and/or moisture content collide.
Hurricanes can form only open warm ocean water with a temperature of least 80 degrees or 26 celsius. Tornadoes can form over land or water. A tornado formed over water is called a waterspout. Tornadoes can almost anywhere in the world with the right weather conditions. Their have been tornadoes on six continents. Hurricanes form in the tropics and then follow paths that take them either over land or they or they stay over the open ocean.
Unequal heating and cooling of the Earth's surface creates temperature and pressure differences that lead to the formation of weather systems. These differences in temperature and pressure can result in the development of severe weather events such as tornadoes and hurricanes. Tornadoes form in areas with intense temperature contrasts, while hurricanes form over warm ocean waters where there is a large temperature difference between the air and water.
Hurricanes are measured through a combination of satellite imagery, manned flights into the storms, Doppler radar, and ground ad seas surface based observations. Tornadoes are more difficult because they are smaller, shorter lived, and overall less predictable. Measurements have been made using Doppler radar and ground and ground based probes. Even then, most tornadoes do not have any measurements taken, so strength is estimated based on the damage caused.
Blowing winds can form due to differences in air pressure caused by temperature variations on Earth's surface. These wind patterns can lead to the formation of weather systems such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and ocean currents.
