        The Philippines sits in an area of seasonally warm ocean water (sea temperatures over 27°C) and has enough Coriolis Force to create rotating winds over the ocean's surface.Sea-level rise is happening globally but is particularly affecting the Philippines. It is caused by global warming and has gone up by about 20 cm since 1900. These sea level rises create larger storm surges.Use of groundwater has caused parts of the country to sink.The worst affected city, Tacloban, is at the end of a bay that funnelled water from the storm surge.
