Theme 1: Living with the physical environment
Section A: The challenge of natural hazards – course outline…
Heading / Question How have I revised this section – do I need to catch up on notes – have I done exam style questions?
What are natural hazards? Different types of natural hazard Risks which increase hazard risk.
Plate tectonics theory Where do earthquakes and volcanoes happen? What physical processes create these tectonic hazards?
Effects and responses to tectonic hazards Primary and secondary effects Immediate and long term responses Named examples contrasting the effects and responses in two areas of contrasting
wealth.
Management of natural hazards Reasons why people live in areas of tectonic hazards How monitoring, prediction and planning can reduce risk
Global atmospheric circulation
Tropical Storms causes Distribution, causes, structure and features of tropical storms How can climate change affect distribution, frequency and intensity of storms
Tropical storms effects Primary and secondary impacts Immediate and long term responses Named example of effects and responses How does monitoring, prediction, protection and planning reduce the effect of
tropical storms
Extreme weather in the UK Recent extreme weather in the UK Causes, Social, environmental and economic impacts How management strategies can reduce risk
Evidence that weather is becoming more extreme in the UK
Climate change Evidence for climate change Possible causes (man-made and natural)
Overview of the effects of climate change
Managing climate change Mitigation- alternative energy production, international agreements, planting trees Adaptation- change in agricultural systems, managing water supply, reducing risk
from rising sea levels
