LAHAR
LAVA FLOW
PYROCLASTIC FLOW
TEPHRA FALL
How can we tell when a volcano will erupt?
Deformation of the ground surface
Detectable earthquakes
Changes in the temperature and chemistry of the groundwater and spring waters.
Occurrence of steam-blast eruptions
What type of movement do lahar, debris avalanches, and earthflows belong?
flows
spread
slide
topple
This reduce the impact of tsunamis and floods by reducing both the height and the velocity of the incoming waves, and by distributing water among the canals.
(a)
What is the difference between a typhoon, a hurricane and a cyclone?
Typhoon, hurricane and cyclone are storms which are of different intensities.
Typhoons are tidal waves, hurricanes spin clockwise and cyclones spin counter clockwise.
Typhoons are found near the equator, hurricanes are found in the midlatitudes and typhoons in the Arctic and Antarctic.
All describe storms, the name used in the Western Pacific , North America and near the Indian Ocean, respectively
