Effects of climate change animated
The document discusses various natural disasters that can occur as effects of climate change, including tsunamis, mudslides, earthquakes, avalanches, droughts, forest fires, blizzards, typhoons, cyclones, floods, volcano eruptions, tornadoes, and hurricanes. It provides brief descriptions of each type of disaster, such as tsunamis being large waves generated by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, mudslides being fast moving landslides after heavy rain, and hurricanes being strong tropical storms that develop in the Atlantic Ocean.
Natural disasters
Tsunamis are giant waves caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions that can reach heights of 30 meters and travel as fast as jets. Mudslides are fast moving landslides made of mud that destroy everything. Earthquakes are caused by movement of tectonic plates under the earth's surface and occur suddenly, mostly in the Pacific Rim. Avalanches are like mudslides but made of snow and ice, traveling at 80 mph in mountains after fresh snowfalls.
How natural disasters happen
The document discusses different types of natural disasters including those caused by movements of the Earth like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, which are difficult to predict and prevent. It also mentions weather related disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and extreme temperatures, which usually have some warning but are still unpredictable. Finally, it covers floods, mudslides, landslides, and famines, which are often consequences of extreme weather or exacerbate other natural disasters. The root causes of many natural disasters can be attributed to soil erosion, seismic activity, air pressure, and ocean currents, which have impacted the Earth since its formation.
Natural calamaties
This document discusses natural calamities and disaster management. It begins with an introduction to disaster management and the role of government agencies. It then discusses various types of natural calamities including tornadoes, extreme temperatures, droughts, wildfires, volcanic eruptions, cyclones, earthquakes, floods, and tsunamis.

Overall, the document aims to raise awareness of natural disasters and the importance of preparedness and coordination to minimize loss of life and property.
Hurricanes
A hurricane begins as a tropical storm over warm ocean waters near the equator. It features high winds that circle around the storm's eye, an area of calm weather at the center. Hurricanes are classified using the Saffir-Simpson scale from 1 to 5 based on wind speed and potential damage, though this scale is considered too simple by some. The worst hurricanes on record include Katrina in 2005, which caused massive flooding and damage in Louisiana and Mississippi with winds over 240 km/h.
Natural disasters-1226606059268844-9
This document discusses the top 11 natural disasters: landslides, floods, thunderstorms, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, droughts, hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, earthquakes, and avalanches. It provides details on the causes and impacts of each type of disaster, with landslides defined as the movement of land down a slope by gravity, floods caused by excessive rainfall, and tsunamis generated by displacement of large bodies of water. The document aims to raise awareness of natural hazards and inform readers on disaster preparedness.
Tsunami
Earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions and other disturbances can cause tsunamis by displacing large amounts of water. Tsunamis are a series of long sea waves that can travel across entire oceans within hours. Three-quarters of tsunamis occur in the Pacific Ocean due to high seismic activity along subduction zones that make up the Pacific Ring of Fire. When tsunamis reach land, they can devastate coastal areas by destroying homes and infrastructure and endangering human life. On average, two tsunamis occur globally each year, with about 80% originating in the Pacific Ocean.
Extreme natural disasters
Natural disasters occur when natural hazards such as floods, hurricanes, earthquakes interact with human and built environments. Hazards become dangerous when they threaten humans or destroy infrastructure. The frequency of earthquakes of different magnitudes follows a general pattern, with smaller quakes occurring more often than very large ones. New Zealand has experienced several significant natural disasters in its history, including landslides, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions.
Natural Calamities
Natural disasters are the result of natural hazards like floods, earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes or wildfires. They can cause damage through volcanic eruptions which release hot lava and ash. Earthquakes create giant shock waves that move towards the surface, sometimes splitting the ground apart. Floods occur when heavy rain or snow melt causes rivers to overflow their banks. Natural disasters have significant environmental, financial and human impacts.
Natural Calamities
The document lists and repeats various natural calamities including avalanche, blizzard, tropical cyclone, drought, earthquake, floods, hailstorm, heatwave, limnic eruption, meteor impact, tornado, tsunami, volcanic eruption, and wildfire. It was created by Prashant Mahajan to help his son with a school assignment and shares information on natural disasters.
Disaster
This document discusses different types of disasters including natural disasters like cyclones, earthquakes, tornadoes, tsunamis, floods, wildfires, droughts, avalanches, and landslides. It also discusses man-made disasters such as nuclear bombings, terrorism, and oil spills. Specific examples of major disasters are provided, like the 1945 atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Natural disasters are hazards caused by environmental factors, while man-made disasters involve human elements like intent, negligence or technological failures.
Natural disasters
1. The document defines various natural hazards and disasters including storms, droughts, floods, earthquakes, landslides, avalanches, wildfires, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis.
2. It provides details on the types of storms such as blizzards, cyclones, and thunderstorms. It also defines drought as a long period with little or no rain.
3. The causes and features of different types of earthquakes, landslides, avalanches, wildfires, and volcanic eruptions are summarized. Hazards associated with volcanic eruptions like pyroclastic flows, gases, and lahars are also noted.
Risk
The document discusses risk from natural hazards and disasters. It defines risk as the probability of a hazardous event causing harmful consequences based on potential deaths, injuries, property damage, economic impacts, and environmental effects. Risk is determined by the interaction of hazards, vulnerability, and capacity to cope. Factors like involuntary hazards, immediate impacts, and deaths grouped in space and time tend to increase risk perception, while voluntary hazards, delayed impacts, and statistical victims tend to decrease risk perception. Individual responses to risk are influenced by experience, wealth, personality, and psychological denial. The document also lists the top 5 most dangerous earthquake hot spots in the US beyond California.
Hurricanes
Tropical cyclones are rotating storms that form over warm ocean waters and are called hurricanes in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific. They have very strong winds that spiral inward toward the eye, where winds are light and skies are clear. The strongest winds and heaviest rains occur in the eyewall that surrounds the eye. Hurricanes are categorized on a scale of 1 to 5 based on their wind speeds, with category 3 or higher considered major hurricanes that can cause extensive damage. Climate change is expected to increase hurricane intensity by raising ocean temperatures.
Beyond the Category
This document discusses the limitations of solely relying on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale (SSHWS) category to determine a storm's potential impacts. While the SSHWS provides wind speed estimates, it does not account for other hazards like storm surge, rainfall, tornadoes, or storm size. Case studies of storms like Hurricanes Isaac, Sandy, and Ike demonstrate how low-category storms can still cause catastrophic flooding and damage depending on other factors. The document recommends considering detailed forecasts of each hazard in National Weather Service statements. It also discusses tools like tropical cyclone impact graphics and storm surge warnings that aim to better convey overall risk to the public.

environment disaster management concpt and application
This document discusses disaster management concepts and applications. It defines a disaster and outlines the phases of disaster management: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. It also categorizes different types of disasters as natural (meteorological, geological, environmental) or man-made (technological, industrial, warfare) and provides examples of specific disaster types like floods, earthquakes, chemical spills and attacks. Principles of disaster management are also outlined.
Natural disaster
The document discusses natural disasters and examines whether they are truly natural or have human influences. It provides examples of different types of natural disasters like hurricanes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. While the forces causing them are natural, the impact is influenced by human activities. A key example is the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami that killed over 250,000 people. Though caused by an earthquake, the death toll was exacerbated by human factors like living in vulnerable coastal areas and lack of warning systems. The document argues we should consider vulnerabilities created by poverty or development when analyzing disaster impacts and responses.
Natural disaster
There are differences between natural disasters and man-made social problems. Natural disasters are caused by natural forces like earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, etc. while man-made problems are caused by human activities like accidents, wars, terrorism. Natural disasters tend to disproportionately impact poorer countries and communities that have less ability to prepare for and respond to disasters due to lack of resources and infrastructure. While disasters may initially seem purely natural, human activities can exacerbate their impacts through issues like environmental degradation, lack of disaster planning, and unequal social vulnerabilities. It is important to consider both the natural and human factors that contribute to disasters.
Natural disaster
This document discusses the differences between natural problems and social problems. It provides examples of natural disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, floods, volcanic eruptions, and avalanches. It explains that while the causes of these disasters may be natural phenomena, the impact and damage is often exacerbated by human factors like poverty, lack of infrastructure, and environmental degradation. For social problems, it notes that a social problem is defined as an undesirable condition that threatens people's quality of life and values. Social problems result from issues related to a society's perceptions and norms. The document contrasts natural disasters with social issues.
AS Edexcel Geography - World At Risk
This document provides an overview of global hazards and trends related to climate change. It begins with key terms used to describe different types of hazards. Statistics show that while the number of deaths from disasters has decreased due to better protection, the total number affected has increased significantly since the 1990s. This is likely due to growing populations living in at-risk areas combined with more frequent or intense extreme weather events associated with climate change. El Niño/La Niña cycles also influence hazard patterns globally, bringing drought to some areas and floods to others. Human activities like deforestation exacerbate the impacts of disasters by increasing vulnerability.

The storm caused catastrophic damage due to strong winds and heavy rainfall. Over 138,000 people were killed or left missing. The damage was exacerbated by the lack of early warning systems and destruction of coastal mangrove forests that normally help protect against storm surges.

It will examine the causes and impacts of these hazards as well as mitigation strategies. Case studies of specific geological hazard events will also be discussed. The course aims to provide an understanding of natural processes and how to assess and reduce risks from natural hazards.
Natural Disasters .pptx
Natural disasters are caused by natural processes and can result in loss of life and economic damage. There are two main types of disasters: natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis; and man-made disasters caused by human activities like nuclear explosions and global warming. Common natural disasters include floods, which occur from heavy rain and overflowing rivers; tsunamis, which are large sea waves caused by undersea earthquakes or landslides; wildfires, which burn forests and grasslands due to lightning or human accidents; and earthquakes, which release energy through sudden rock movement underground. Education and preparedness can help reduce impacts, but natural disasters cannot be fully prevented when they occur
Disaster nursing
This document discusses disasters, including definitions, types, phases and the role of nursing. It begins by defining a disaster according to the WHO and FEMA. It describes different types of natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods and volcanic eruptions. The three phases of a disaster are outlined as pre-impact, impact and post-impact. Nursing goals in each phase are summarized, including rapid assessment, triage and meeting physical and emotional needs. The overall goal of disaster nursing is achieving the best possible health outcomes for those affected.
Global Hazards
The document discusses various natural hazards that can cause disasters including depressions, hurricanes, droughts, floods, tornadoes, wildfires, volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides and avalanches. It describes the physical processes that cause each hazard and their potential impacts, such as property damage, deaths or injuries. The document also discusses concepts of risk, vulnerability and capacity, noting that hazards combined with vulnerability can lead to disasters, while greater capacity can reduce risk and impacts.
Hurricane katrina group presentation
Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans in 2005. Local and national news coverage was initially ineffective due to a lack of on-the-ground reporting and a failure to communicate the severity of the situation. However, some local media like NOLA.com and Times-Picayune provided constant updates that helped guide relief efforts. In the aftermath, coverage increasingly focused on rebuilding efforts, though attention faded within a few years.

The document discusses challenges with financing energy efficiency projects. It notes that two key challenges are a lack of quality data and low consumer engagement. It describes different models for direct financing to consumers and indirect financing of larger projects. Open energy data initiatives could help address data issues and allow better assessment of risks. Improving consumer engagement on energy use would also help promote direct financing options.

The document summarizes a paper that proposes a new method for commercial mortgage lenders to explicitly factor energy risk and building energy efficiency into mortgage underwriting. It finds that standard underwriting does not account for risks from volatile energy prices, which can significantly impact building cash flows. The authors develop a model to simulate cash flows under different energy price scenarios and incorporate these risks into loan valuations. The results show loan valuations are 8.5% lower when accounting for energy, with larger reductions for larger buildings and loans. The paper concludes this method can help lenders more accurately price loans based on location-specific energy risks and efficiency levels.
James Finlay: Top 10 EE Concept Missteps
This document summarizes the top 10 conceptual hurdles to greater investment in energy efficiency. It discusses issues such as how construction lending differs from lending on stabilized properties, the different risk cultures across real estate asset classes, the fallacy that if there is no market data the value is zero, focusing on low hanging fruit improvements over deep retrofits, timing efficiency upgrades with capital expenditure cycles, and only considering cost savings without other potential benefits. It also addresses issues like the simple payback fallacy of not including reversion, incentives needed for renewable energy similar to subsidies for fossil fuels, greater emotional impact of potential losses over gains, and how complex credit issues have been solved before through mechanisms like credit enhancement.
Tim Weaver
This document discusses the shift from Keynesian economics to neoliberalism in urban politics and policy in the United States and Britain between 1976-2000. It argues that neoliberalism undermined cities' governing capacity and launched a new trajectory of political development that proceeded through two logics: neoliberalization by default through events like financial crises, and neoliberalization by design through targeted policy changes imposed by national elites. It provides examples of neoliberalization by design in London Docklands and neoliberalization by default through financial collapse and ideological shifts in Philadelphia.

This document discusses human capital-centered regional economic development and analyzes Philadelphia's biosciences sector as a case study. It outlines several analytical approaches used to understand regional occupational clusters and gaps, including occupational cluster analysis, industry/occupation cluster analysis, and gap analysis. These techniques help identify regional strengths and opportunities but require strong institutions to effectively translate analysis into coherent policy. The case of Philadelphia's early 2000s efforts shows how analytical results may be irrelevant without such institutions, due in part to challenges of regional governance and ambiguity around workforce development goals.The Bull & the Ballot Box: Art Museum Economic Strategies

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
