.... is usually very short. It depends on how high the tide is which goes up and down twice a day. When the velocities of hurricane winds become severe the height of the waves become three or more feet higher than the previous high tide. Coastal floods can be caused by a number of things. Coastal floods can be caused by runoff, hurricane waves, tsunami (seismic sea waves), and hurricane rains. Coastal flooding can not only take part on oceans but it can also take part on lakes. Coastal flooding can be a great danger because coast lines are very densely populated areas. In the United States in the early 1990's 50% of the population was on a coastal county.1 Although .....

.... found to have trace amounts of isolatable Cesium compounds. Once the knowledge of Cesium compounds was discovered, the study of it’s chemical properties was initiated. Perhaps the most dynamic chemical reaction of Cesium occurs when it is exposed to oxygen. This exposure causes oxides to form, where even the heat from oxidation is enough to melt and ignite this metal. Another major reaction of Cesium occurs with water and ice. Ice with a temperature as low as -177 degrees Fahrenheit can trigger a vigorous reaction. Because Cesium reacts so violently with organic compounds, it is considered the most reactive of Alkali metals. There are four principle compou .....
