Is sea erosion the opposite of sea level rising (or rather, an adjacent phenomenon)?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Richard Hernandez Sea erosion is not the opposite of sea level rising, it is a direct consequence of it. How does sea level rise effect erosion? Sea level rise can also increase coastal erosion because waves can extend further up and along beaches and cliffs. Erosion is happening faster along coastlines made from
Why a stratus cloud does not always reach all the way to the ground?

Those low, flat blankets can really put a damper on your day. But have you ever stopped to wonder why they don’t just sink all the way down and become fog? It’s a pretty interesting
Can clouds be formed without a pollen particle’s role?
Safety & HazardsClouds Without Pollen? Absolutely! Here’s How. Clouds. We’ve all seen them, maybe even dreamed of floating on one. These puffy masses aren’t just pretty faces in the sky; they’re crucial players in our planet’s climate, controlling everything from temperature to rainfall. But what exactly makes a cloud form?

Is there any possible way that a tropical cyclone of any strength could form over land?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Joseph Salleh Would it be possible for a tropical cyclone to form over land? Because tropical cyclones need warm water to survive, the chances of tropical cyclone formation happening over dry land are slim. Only 2 percent of all Atlantic tropical cyclones have formed over land (1851-2015), according to Michael Lowry, hurricane specialist
What is the difference between roughness length and zero plane displacement?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Joseph Salleh What is zero plane displacement? A height scale in turbulent flow over tall roughness elements associated with the average level of action of momentum transfer between the flow and the roughness elements. What is surface roughness length? A measure of the amount of mechanical mixing introduced by the surface roughness elements
