I. Summary This paper aims to address the topic of beach erosion. I will start with some background on the topic about what beach erosion is, why it is a potential hazard, and where its effects are being seen today. I will then get into how erosion specifically effects beaches, and delve into the various causes of beach erosion such as rising sea levels, tidal patterns, and human development. After that I am going to discuss how erosion effects the land. More specifically on how it effects the…

Hurricanes become catastrophic at a category five storm when they reach wind speeds from 155 miles per hour and higher (Erickson). Some storms will be more ferocious than others depending on the route of the…

Next is the updraft stage, it lifts when fronts and low pressure troughs. Then the storm stage and it is a large disturbance to the earth, which usually comes with rain, hail…
