GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Natural Hazards can also be divided into rapid onset hazards, such as Volcanic Eruptions, Earthquakes, Flash floods, Landslides, Severe Thunderstorms, Lightening, and wildfires, which develop with little warning and strike rapidly.

Detailed explanation-2: -The different types of natural hazards include: Geophysical hazards (e.g., earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis). Hydrological hazards (e.g., floods). Meteorological hazards (e.g., cyclones and storms).

Detailed explanation-3: -Natural hazards and natural disasters are related but are not the same. A natural hazard is the threat of an event that will likely have a negative impact. A natural disaster is the negative impact following an actual occurrence of natural hazard in the event that it significantly harms a community.

Detailed explanation-4: -Geophysical hazard: earthquake, tsunami, volcanic eruption, landslide, and snow avalanche. Hydrological hazard: flood and drought. Shallow earth processes hazard: regional subsidence and uplift, local subsidence and heave, and ground collapse.
