Could hurricanes happen in Utah?
No. Hurricanes can only happen in coastal areas with warmer climates.
Why do some scientist think that gobal warming would increase the strength of an hurricanes?
Hurricanes get their energy from warm ocean water. Warmer water usually means more potential for hurricanes to form and gain strength. Warmer water resulting from global warming could therefore lead to stronger hurricanes. Some have suggested, however, that changes to other factors such as wind shear could negate the effects of warmer oceans on hurricanes.
Why do hurricanes happen close to equator?
Hurricanes happen over hot water ... which is found close to the equator.
What kind of hurricanes happens in the deciduous forest?
Hurricanes don't happen in a forest they only happen over water.
Why do warmers seas make a stronger hurricanes?
Warmer seas provide the energy that fuels hurricanes, as warm water evaporates and rises to form storm systems. The increased evaporation and water vapor in warmer seas contribute to the intensification of hurricanes, making them stronger and more destructive.
Why are hurricanes more likely to strike NJ than OR?
Hurricanes gain their energy from warm ocean water. The water off the U.S. Atlantic coast is warmer than the water off the Pacific coast
What is the relationship between oceans and a hurricane?
Oceans provide the warm waters that fuel hurricanes, allowing them to strengthen and develop. The heat and moisture from the ocean surface are crucial elements for the formation and intensification of hurricanes. Warmer oceans can lead to more powerful and destructive hurricanes.
Do hurricanes ever happen in denmark?
No. The water is not warm enough.
Did scientists already know that warmer hurricanes make stronger hurricanes?
Yes
What will happen to the water as it's heated by light energy?
It will get warmer.
How is global warming making hurricanes stronger?
It has been shown that the warming of the atmosphere warms the oceans and provides more energy to tropical systems, thereby causing some hurricanes to become more powerful. Whether they are becoming more frequent is still a matter of debate.
Do any hurricanes happen in Colorado?
No. Colorado is smack in the middle of the US. Hurricanes feed off of water and dissipate quickly on land.
