5. Where do Atlantic coast

hurricanes originate?

6. What is the difference

between El Niño and La

Nina?

Explanation:

1. Georgia's climate is relatively mild because of its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico and also because of its higher elevation above sea level

2. Drought: Drought is a prolonged period of shortage in water supply (ground, atmospheric, surface) which is usually as a result of inadequate precipitation.

3. Georgia's limited annual snowfall is so important because too much snow can cause electricity problems, damage several buildings and can cause  the side of their mountains to become an avalanche

4.Wind and ocean currents influence the settlements of New World by regulating global climate. They act as a transport system for transporting warm water toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. They play a very important role in keeping the Earth warm by absorbing most of the sun's radiation and redistributing the heat across the globe.

5. Atlantic coast hurricanes originate from the warm waters of the Golf of Mexico, the tropical Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean sea.

6.El Nino and La Nina, part of the global climate system both occur when the Pacific Ocean and the temperature above it change from their neutral state.
