Environmental factors can have various effects on ecosystems. in august 2005, hurricane katrina caused significant damage in several states along the gulf coast, including alabama, mississippi, and louisiana. thousands of people were evacuated from their homes due to flooding and other damage caused by the storm. what environmental impact would hurricane katrina not have caused? early onset of spring change in marine ecosystems change in animal migration change in habitats

Hurricane Katrina would not have caused early onset of spring. The damaging winds/rains of the hurricane would have caused a change in marine ecosystems and habitats since the heavy winds/rain and storm surge eroded beaches, took down trees, and flooded out areas. As a result, animal migration also changed since some habitats that animals would normally migrate to were destroyed and no longer existed. The early onset of spring (aka. seasonal change) is not driven by individual weather systems.
