Hurricanes are large and heavy engines which are run by heat. The tropics available in the North and South of Equator consist of warm waters during the late summer. The storms are not initialized near the equator because the rotation of the storms is caused by Coriolis Effect. The Coriolis Effect does not deflect the winds in required direction either in clock wise or anti-clock wise in the equator region. It is generally said that air at the equator region will not be held at low pressure and do

AECs of ultisols usually greater than those of mollisols? CEC has a much larger impact for most agricultural soils. AEC occurs on the edges on minerals where positive charges are found.AEC is found particularly in highly weathered soils of the tropics and subtropics. Most agricultural soils have too high a pH for AEC to occur‚ which increases as pH in soils decreases‚ especially in the US and Canada. But the AEC in agricultural soil are smaller than CEC so they are repelled by the positive charge

radiation coming from the sun UV-B radiation can be harmful to the skin and is the main cause of sunburn; excessive exposure can also cause genetic damage‚ resulting in problems such as skin cancer. The ozone layer is higher in altitude in the tropics‚ and lower in altitude in the extratropics‚ especially in the polar regions. This altitude variation of ozone results from the slow The ozone layer can be depleted by free radical catalysts‚ including nitric oxide (NO)‚ nitrous oxide (N2O)‚ hydroxyl
