Impact if tectonic event bru👍🥰🥀

impact on human population

• Loss of life and injury: volcanic ash + muddy lava + super-hot fast lava + gas can be deadly

• Infrastructure damage: Earthquake can destroy building + road + bridges + important infrastructure eg gas + water lines

• Displacement and economic disruption: Damage to home + infrastructure force ppl to relocate

• Environmental and health impacts: Volcanic ash can poison animal + contaminate water sources.

Hazard Mitigation strategies(Earthquake)

• Base isolators and shock absorbers in buildings: - can separate building from ground so when ground shake building can stay more still + move on its own

Hazard Mitigation strategies(Earthquake)

• Reinforced concrete and cross-bracing - give strength + stability + resist force that push sideway + seismic activity (all the shaking of the ground from earthquakes)

Hazard Mitigation strategies(Earthquake)

• Early-warning systems and emergency drills

• important for human preparedness w early warning system detecting danger + notifying ppl

Hazard Mitigation strategies(volcano)

Monitoring gas emissions and seismic activity

Evacuation plans and hazard maps

Hazard Mitigation strategies(volcano)

Lava diversion channels

Hazard Mitigation strategies(tsunami)

• Sea walls, breakwaters, and elevated evacuation routes

• designed to protect shoreline blocking wave + protect infrastructure + ppl
