GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Examples of Geological hazards are earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and landslides.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hazards associated with earth processes (earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, avalanches, rock slides and rock falls, soil creep, subsidence, floods, frost heave, coastal hazards).

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -A geologic hazard is an extreme natural events in the crust of the earth that pose a threat to life and property, for example, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis (tidal waves) and landslides.

Detailed explanation-5: -Earthquakes-Liquefaction (soils), Tsunamis. Volcanic Eruptions-Lava Flows, Ash Fall, Lahars. Landslides-Rock Falls or Slides, Debris Flows, Mud Flows.
