A destructive hurricane is likely to trigger succession. Hurricanes can cause significant environmental changes, such as the uprooting of trees, flooding, and erosion, which disrupt existing ecosystems. This disturbance allows for the process of ecological succession, where new species colonize the affected areas and gradually restore the ecosystem over time.

What event is likely to trigger succession?

Succession is often triggered by events such as retirement, resignation, death, or a change in ownership of a company. Other triggers could include mergers, acquisitions, or the need for fresh leadership to drive growth and innovation.


Which activity is most likely to trigger secondary succession?

A natural disaster like a wildfire or volcanic eruption is most likely to trigger secondary succession. These events can wipe out existing plant and animal life, creating a blank slate for new species to colonize and establish themselves.


Does a hurricane trigger a tornado?

It is fairly common for a hurricane to produce tornadoes around landfall, however, not all hurricanes produce tornadoes, and most tornadoes are not associated with hurricanes.


How many different natural disasters can an earthquake trigger?

tsunami, hurricane, flood, aftershocks... i think that's it...


Does a thunderstorm happen when warm air rises or fall?

The opportunity for warm, sticky air is also more likely, but warm air alone cannot trigger thunderstorms.Thunderstorms need an unstable environment and enough moisture to make tall, large clouds and the cumulonimbus cloud that defines a thunderstorm.


What are two conditions that can form a thunderstorm?

Two conditions that can lead to the formation of a thunderstorm are warm, moist air near the ground and a trigger to lift the air, such as a cold front or a convergence of air masses. As the warm air rises and cools, it can create thunderstorms with lightning, thunder, heavy rain, and sometimes hail.


Why do Thunder storms usually form in Florida?

Thunderstorms commonly form in Florida due to its warm and humid climate, which provides the necessary heat and moisture for the development of the thunderstorm clouds. Additionally, the interaction of sea breezes from both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean can trigger the atmospheric conditions favorable for thunderstorm formation in the state.


Can thunderstorms form on cold days?

If a big thunderstorm forms on a snow day, then it would be a blizzard, not a storm because the water drops that the thunderstorm cloud drops will freeze into ice crystal shards and snowflakes, resulting in a snowstorm and/or sleet.


Does condensation cause tornadoes?

Condensation is not the direct cause of tornadoes. Tornadoes form as a result of severe thunderstorms in the presence of strong wind shear and atmospheric instability. However, condensation within a thunderstorm can contribute to the development of the rotating updraft that is necessary for tornado formation.


How During eye wall replacement cycle what exactly would trigger the expansion for storm diameter?

When an eyewall replacement cycle occurs the intensity of the hurricane usually decreases.Although an eyewall replacement cycle tends to reduce the category of a hurricane it also spread the hurricane force winds out over a larger area.This can cause a larger region to experience the extreme damage in a hurricane....But exactly how n why ??? may be there is a connection in between spiral bands or dense convective cloud


Ecological succession occurs beacuse?

Ecological succession occurs because of disturbances in an ecosystem that trigger a process of gradual change in the species composition and structure of the community over time. This process allows for the replacement of species as the environment changes, leading to the establishment of more stable and diverse ecosystems.


How do you hurricanes change the landform?

The waves and storm surge of a hurricane can cause severe beach erosion. Heavy rain from hurricanes can cause flooding, which can erode river channels and trigger landslides.
