This section clarifies the difference between natural hazards and natural disasters, providing essential definitions for understanding the topic.
Definition: A natural hazard is an extreme natural event with the potential to cause harm, while a natural disaster is a hazard that has actually occurred and caused damage.
Vocabulary: 'Potential' in this context refers to the possibility or likelihood of an event causing harm or damage.
This page outlines various types of natural disasters with explanation, specifically focusing on tectonic hazards. It includes tsunamis, landslides, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions.
Example: The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami is a prime example of a devastating tectonic hazard that affected multiple countries and caused widespread destruction.
This section covers climatic hazards, another major category of natural disasters. It includes tornadoes, tropical storms, floods, and droughts.
Highlight: Climatic hazards are often influenced by global weather patterns and can be exacerbated by climate change.
This page delves into the concept of hazard risk and explores reasons why people live in hazardous areas despite the dangers. It discusses various factors that influence people's decisions to remain in high-risk zones.
Definition: Hazard risk is the probability or chance that a natural hazard will actually occur and affect a population.
Example: People might choose to live near active volcanoes due to fertile soil for agriculture, despite the risk of eruptions.
This section provides a comprehensive overview of the factors affecting hazard risk in Geography. It discusses urbanization, population growth, climate change, land use, and wealth as key factors influencing the level of risk associated with natural hazards.
Highlight: Climate change is increasingly exposing more people to natural hazards and intensifying existing risks in many areas.
Example: Informal housing in rapidly growing urban areas often lacks proper construction standards, increasing vulnerability to hazards like earthquakes or floods.
This page explores the various impacts of natural hazards, discussing how the consequences can differ between developed and developing countries. It also touches on long-term effects such as reduced tourism and economic recovery.
Quote: "Hazard risks are increasing due to population growth, urbanisation, pressure on marginal land and changes to the natural environment."
Vocabulary: Marginal land refers to areas that are difficult to develop and yield little profit.
This section provides key definitions related to natural hazards and gives examples of different types of tectonic hazards. It helps solidify understanding of the terminology used in the study of natural disasters.
Definition: Tectonic hazards are created when the Earth's crust moves, while climatic hazards occur in regions with certain weather conditions.
Example: Earthquakes, avalanches, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and landslides are all examples of tectonic hazards.
The final page provides a list of useful websites for further study on natural hazards. These resources can be valuable for students looking to deepen their understanding of the topic or prepare for exams.
Highlight: The provided links offer additional information and revision materials on natural hazards from reputable educational sources.
This page introduces the topic of natural hazards as part of Paper 1: Living with the physical environment. It sets the stage for a comprehensive discussion on various types of natural hazards and their impacts on human society.
Highlight: Natural hazards are a crucial component of physical geography, focusing on how extreme natural events interact with human environments.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
