PPT-Extreme Natural Events Earthquake processes.

Stage 1 Magma rises to the crust within the mantle This creates friction and causes the plates to move What are the 3 main ways plates move 1 2 3 Stage 2 Pressure builds between plates and sometimes small earthquakes are felt . Magnitude 8.0 SOLOMON ISLANDS . Wednesday, 6 February, 2013 at 01:12:23 UTC. Australia. Magnitude 8.0 SOLOMON ISLANDS . Wednesday, 6 February, 2013 at 01:12:23 UTC. Tsunami model amplitude information is shown colour-coded to the scale. Filled colours show maximum computed tsunami amplitude in cm during 24 hours of wave propagation. Black contours show computed tsunami arrival time. . Are You Prepared To Ride It Out? We have heard it so many times –the “big one” is coming. In our lifetime, we still haven’t seen or felt that huge earthquake. That shouldn’t stop us from preparing. Andrei Gabrielov. Purdue University.

Questions to assess vulnerability. + How likely is an extreme natural event and will it affect people?. + How vulnerable are people to natural hazards?. + To what extent are societies able to cope with severe and immediate disasters?. Hazards are produced from the response of energy released. Amount and duration are related to the amount of energy released. Which hazards do you know?. Earthquake Hazards.

Earthquakes are likely wherever plate movement stores energy in the rock along faults.. Geologists can determine earthquake risk by locating where faults are active and where past earthquakes have occurred.. Earthquake Country Alliance. Cisco, San Jose, March 1. , 2018.
