GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Earth’s warmer and moister atmosphere and warmer oceans make it likely that the strongest hurricanes will be more intense, produce more rainfall, affect new areas, and possibly be larger and longer-lived.

Detailed explanation-2: -Increasing ocean heat content is contributing to sea level rise, ocean heat waves and coral bleaching, and melting of ocean-terminating glaciers and ice sheets around Greenland and Antarctica. Heat already stored in the ocean will eventually be released, committing Earth to additional surface warming in the future.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hurricanes need four main ingredients to form and strengthen: warm ocean water. lots of moisture in the air. low vertical wind shear.

Detailed explanation-4: -As the excessive heat and energy warms the ocean, the change in temperature leads to unparalleled cascading effects, including ice-melting, sea-level rise, marine heatwaves, and ocean acidification.

Detailed explanation-5: -Warmer oceans fuel storms Evaporation intensifies as temperatures rise, and so does the transfer of heat from the oceans to the air. As the storms travel across warm oceans, they pull in more water vapor and heat. That means stronger wind, heavier rainfall and more flooding when the storms hit land.
