Storm surges occur during storm events, including hurricanes and tropical cyclones due to three processes: 1  wind setup. 2  barometric setup. 3  wave setup.
Starch is the most common carbohydrate in the human diet and is contained in many staple foods. The major sources of starch intake worldwide are the cereals (rice, wheat, and maize) and the root vegetables (potatoes and cassava).
Tapioca is a starch extracted from the cassava root through a process of washing and pulping. The wet pulp is then squeezed to extract a starchy liquid. Once all the water evaporates from the starchy liquid, the tapioca flour remains. Alternatively, cassava flour is the whole root, simply peeled, dried and ground. This means it has more dietary fiber than tapioca flour â and allows me to make cassava flour tortillas, which would not be possible with tapioca flour.
