Description
Natural Hazards and Their Benefits
Flooding can deposit nutrient-rich silt on farmland, improving soil fertility. Volcanic activity can create fertile soils, provide minerals for extraction, and offer geothermal energy. MEDCs and LEDCs manage tectonic hazards differently due to economic resources. MEDCs use advanced technology and strict building codes, while LEDCs rely more on community preparedness and aid.
