Natural hazard is a natural phenomenon that might have a negative effect on humans and other animals, or the environment. Natural disasters are caused due to different reasons like soil erosion, seismic activity, tectonic movements, air pressure, and ocean currents etc.Natural disasters cause destruction of property, loss of financial resources, and personal injury or illness. The loss of resources, security and access to shelter can lead to massive population migrations in lesser-developed countries.The hazard management process consists of a number of activities designed to reduce loss of life and destruction of property.
