HURRICANE Carola and dora

Hurricanes A hurricane is a storm system with a low- pressure center. They cause strong winds and heavy rain. A hurricane strengthens when water evaporates from the ocean. That makes condensation of water vapor contained in the most air. They lose their force when they move over land

Negative effects Hurricanes can destroy: houses and buldings They can kill humans

Hurricanes and climate changes The climate changes makes... The temperature of ocean increases relatively unstable atmosphere with little wind shear high water vapor content. An important process driving a tropical cyclone is the evaporation of moisture from the ocean's warm surface into the atmosphere, making the ocorrence of hurricanes raise.

Curiosity A Hurricane counterclockwise wind flow in Northern Hemisphere. Clockwise wind flow in the Southern Hemisphere.

Hurricanes are also called typhoons,tropical storms,cyclonic storms, tropical depression and simply cyclones
