Opportunities presented by natural hazards
Students should be able to identify and explain the benefits that natural hazards can offer to humans, such as how flooding can enrich farmland with silt, and how volcanic activity can lead to fertile soils, mineral extraction, and geothermal energy. Additionally, students should compare and contrast the approaches taken by a specific more economically developed country (MEDC) and a specific less economically developed country (LEDC) in managing the effects of tectonic events. They should also examine the strategies used to address the impacts of tropical storms, floods, or droughts.
