are typically responsible for natural disasters. Analyze the
potential impact of these disasters.
Analyze how these phenomenon are monitored, or not, via the
Internet. Critique available Web sites, which publicly display

supports your position?
Disaster Preparedness

preparedness related to these monitored phenomena?
