B. inggris What Caused the Flood?

There are many calamities we experience like storm, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes. The most common calamities that our country faces are storms and floods. According to PAGASA, flood is a natural hydrological phenomenon. One of the causes of flood is tropical storms. According to the Forces of Nature website, storms get water from oceans and bring it towards land.

Streams and rivers sometimes cannot handle the heavy rain so water overflows and produces flood. One of the reasons why we experience flood is ineffective drainage. Most drainage systerns in the country cannot handle the amount of water because they are blocked due to the trashes of people throw on sidewalks. Two examples of storms that caused flood were Hurricane Camille in 1969 in Virginia and the recent Typhoon Ondoy.

The second cause of flood is global warming. According to the Forces of Nature website, global warming is the heat trapped in the earth's atmosphere which slowly warms the earth. Global warming heats water from oceans and seas. It helps the water to evaporate faster. When a big amount of water vapor is in the atmosphere, it forms storms that causes flood on land. When the temperature of the earth increases, ice from the north and south poles would melt and it will cause the rising of sea levels. If the seas levels rise, seas will overflow and it will cause flood on coastal areas.

The third cause of flood is tsunamis. According to the Forces of Nature website, one cause of tsunamis is high winds. High winds create waves that would hit beaches and shores. According to PAGASA, another cause of tsunamis is seismic activities. The examples are underwater
