The answer is; saturated soil turns into liquid that can't support buildings


Soil liquefaction occurs mainly in soils saturated, or partially saturated, with water such as in wetlands. During an earthquake, the waves pass through the soil and make it behave like a wave in a fluid. This causes the soil to loosen temporarily and become weak. The foundation of buildings in the soil fail and the structures collapse.

Remote sensing is used in numerous fields, including geography, land surveying and most Earth Science disciplines (for example, hydrology, ecology, meteorology, oceanography, glaciology, geology); it also has military, intelligence, commercial, economic, planning, and humanitarian applications.

Why An Underground Mine Might Be Better For Local Ecosystem Than A Surface Mine?
leonid [27]

Answer:

Surface mining is suitable for large, low-grade ore deposits which occur below a thin layer of rock or sand. Underground mining is used for small, high-grade deposits covered with a thick soil or rock above the ore. Alluvial mining is suitable for deposits in sand and riverbeds.

Explanation:

Environmental impacts of mining can occur at local, regional, and global scales through direct and indirect mining practices. Impacts can result in erosion, sinkholes, loss of biodiversity, or the contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water by the chemicals emitted from mining processes.
