How are societies preparing for major risks and do you think that these preparations are sufficient and well justified?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

By correct territorial planning including natural hazards prevention and international accords regarding mitigation and adaptation to climate change.

Explanation:

Natural hazards cant be controlled, we cannot know for sure when an earthquake will occur and an eruption cannot be stopped, but there are still things societies can do to prepare and increase the resilience towards this kind of riks.

Trough territorial planning (if done correctly) societies can prepare well, for example, a city located at a high-risk zone of volcano eruption can set an alarm system to alert citizens to when it would be safe to leave the area. A seismic center can be installed to study the tectonic activity and establish high-risk zones.

Regarding climate change, there needs to be an integration of the different countries to the international accords toward climate change so that natural hazards can be mitigated no only locally but globally.

If done correctly estates can receive the impact of a natural hazard and still function correctly. Making high amounts of preparations and funding natural risk mitigation is justified if we look back at past catastrophes such as Katrina Hurricane or Haiti Earthquake and quantify the damage done.

Occur at underwater subduction zones
kherson [118]
Volcanoes occur at underwater subduction zones. In fact, volcanoes form at most if not all types of subduction zones. Subduction zones are regions where tectonic plates collide and one plate bends and slides underneath the other plate. This bent plate reaches the mantle of the Earth, putting more pressure on the hot materials inside it.

What effect did the movement of glaciers have on the region? 1. caused the formation of fjords 2. created thousands of lakes 3.
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

A fjord is usually defined as a contrasting geological landform, which is typically a U-shaped valley, that is formed due to the movement of the glaciers. It is generally narrow and forms steep-sided cliffs on both the sides and is mostly connected to the seas. They have huge depth, sometimes reaches up to a depth of about 1300 m. The downward flowing glaciers pushes the terminal moraine and allows it to remain underwater at its entrance, resulting in shallow water at the fjord's neck, in comparison to the main body of the fjord that is located behind it.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
