" Only one thing is certain: disasters don't occur in regular cycles.
- floods – normally the ground with plants and trees around the river is like a sponge – it holds water and then lets it go slowly into the streams and rivers
- flooding happens when after a long period of rain the ground cannot hold any more water. The river channel is too small for the amount of water and so it spreads sideways onto the flood plains.
- the deforestation and change of the natural river-basin makes the floods even worse
- floods damage crops and buildings, kill people and animals, there is a risk of an epidemic and diseases, during floods the water is contamined so there might be a lack of drinking water
- to prevent flooding, many reservoirs have been build
- also caused by:
- monsoon rains - these very heavy rains happen each year in SE Asia, and although they
can cause flooding, they are necessary for the success of agriculture in the region.
- tsunami - the sea floor suddenly either rises or falls because of a major earthquake. This
causes very large tidal waves to spread out from the epicentre and causes devastation when
they reach land.
- tornado - most of the world's tornadoes occur in the United States
- its a huge rotating column of air which cause the damage of buildings, kills people and
animals "
