slide1. Connect your understanding: What causes the Monsoon? Where does the word monsoon come from?
How are monsoonal climates defined?
How much of the world’s population are affected by a monsoon climate?
What percentage of an area's rainfall can sometimes be received in India during the wet monsoon season? What “Powers” the monsoon?
What happens when warm air rises over India? How does this cause monsoon rainfall?
What impact do the Himalaya have?
Name one positive and one negative impact of the Monsoon<br>
slide2. The Pakistan Monsoon Floods of 2022 – Impacts and Responses<br>
slide3. 1.3 How does extreme weather influence people and places? Big Geographic questions<br>
slide4. The consequences of the Monsoon for people and places<br>
slide5. Complete the video worksheet on the Great Deluge. More detailed slide with questions and video embedded– click below<br>
slide6. Alternative shorter video - Pakistan floods are 'a climate catastrophe' says UN Based on the YouTube video titled "Pakistan floods are 'a climate catastrophe' says UN" , answer the following questions:
Causes:
How does Antonio Guterres describe the monsoon event?
What meteorological factors contributed to the severe flooding in Pakistan as discussed in the video?
How might climate change have influenced the intensity and frequency of the Monsoon and thus floods in Pakistan?
Impacts:
Which provinces have been worst affected?
What were the immediate impacts of the floods on the affected communities in Pakistan?
How did the floods affect Pakistan's economy, particularly in terms of agriculture and industry?
What long-term health concerns arose as a result of the flooding? Pay attention – the questions do not run in order!!! Responses:
What measures did the Pakistani government take in response to the flooding?
Why has delivering aid to assist Pakistan during the flood crisis been difficult?
What lessons can other countries learn from Pakistan's experience with these floods?<br>
slide7. The consequences of the Monsoon for people and places Using the “effects of flooding” worksheet:
1. Classify the information as social, economic or environmental effects of the monsoon floods in Pakistan.
2. Identify three secondary hazards posed by the Monsoon.
3. Add the impacts of the monsoon on People and on Place to the balance diagram. 4. Assess the view that “the 2022 Monsoon event in Pakistan was far worse for people than places”.<br>
slide8. The consequences of the Monsoon for people and places<br>
slide9. REVIEW Would I lie to you? – click on a number and decide if the following are true or false 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9<br>
slide10. Would I lie to you? – click on a number and decide if the following are true or false It was one third It was 1,460 health facilities – still a big number! Damages were estimated at $30 billion The death toll was 1,500<br>
slide11. The Great Deluge – Pakistan Monsoon Flooding of 2022 - A monsoon on steroids? Based on the video "Pakistan: The Great Deluge," answer the following questions:
Causes:
What meteorological (weather) conditions led to the flooding in Pakistan?
How did the 2022 monsoon rainfall compare to the long-term average?
In what ways did the geographical features of the affected regions influence the flooding?
What role did climate change play in the frequency and intensity of the floods?
Effects:
What were the immediate impacts of the flood on the local communities?
How did the floods affect the economy of the regions shown, particularly in terms of agriculture and infrastructure?
What long-term health issues ( a secondary hazard) arose in the aftermath of the floods?
Did the flooding affect people equally? Explain fully. Responses:
What reasons does the Minister give for the failure of mitigation measures in place after the 2010 floods?
What measures did the Pakistani government implement in response to flooding?
How did international organizations and neighbouring countries assist in the relief efforts?
What strategies have been proposed or implemented to mitigate the effects of future floods in Pakistan Pay attention – the questions do not run in order!!!<br>
