Slide 2 Preparation before starting this Revision unit you need to have:- Sorted you theory notes and produced a contents page Have your case studies completed Introduction This unit is to give you 30 minutes of Geography Revision on the Volcanoes and Earthquakes topic. Work through the tasks and stick to the timings. You could work through this unit more than once

Slide 3 You may begin….. Record down your start time

Slide FeatureVolcanoEarthquake Distribution Where Distribution When A: What is the global distribution of different types of natural hazard? 1.Complete this table 2.Compare and Contrast the global distribution of Volcanoes and Earthquakes

Slide What natural processes cause different types of natural hazards? 3 What is (i) An Earthquake (ii) A Fault (iii) The Focus (iv) The Epicentre (v) The Richter Scale

Slide What is (i) A volcano (ii) The vent (iii) A pyroclastic flow (iv)Magma (v) Lahar

Slide How the movement of tectonic plates cause earthquakes and volcanoes 5 Complete the table Type of plate boundary Description of changesEarthquake/ volcanic activity Constructive Destructive Conservative

Slide Look at the map of tectonic plates. Give an example of (i) Plates moving away from each other (ii) Plates moving towards each other (iii) Plates moving past each other

Slide How do natural hazards affect people and places in parts of the world with different levels of development? VolcanoEarthquake PRIMARY-effects SECONDARY - effects 9 Complete the table to show the Primary and secondary effects for these hazards

Slide Look at the data 10. How does level of economic development influence the severity of the impact? MEDCLEDC Laquila ItalySichuan China Nos of deaths Nos of injured Nos displaced Nos homeless ,000,000+ Nos buildings destroyed 10,00015,000,000 Cost £ $ 16 billion $20 billion $
