GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Tectonic processes and flow in Earth’s interior drive deformation of Earth’s surface that can lead to destructive earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Geological natural hazards are for example earthquakes, land slides, sinkholes, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis. Geological natural hazards such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are triggered by activities taking place in the earth’s interior.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hazards associated with earth processes (earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, avalanches, rock slides and rock falls, soil creep, subsidence, floods, frost heave, coastal hazards).

Detailed explanation-4: -Examples include volcanoes, earthquakes, landslides and floods.

Detailed explanation-5: -Seismic hazards related to earthquakes, including ground rupture/faulting, liquefaction, strong motion, and tsunami. Landslides of all kinds, including seismically-triggered landslides, debris flows, mud flows, and rock falls. Mineral hazards such as asbestos, radon, and mercury. More items
