Understanding natural disasters and what impact they have allows us to:

learn about why people become environmental migrants

A volcano is best described as a mountain that...

when erupts allows molten earth "lava" to flow out

Natural changes to landforms include:

deposition, weathering, tectonic force, glaciation & erosion

Human changes to landforms include

digging resources from underground and left open

Land reclamation means:

new land is created from large bodies of water

Learning about why people migrate helps us understand

settlement locations & patterns

A landform such as a Plateau can be described as

large area of tall land with a mostly flat on top

new land created in large bodies of water

The equator separates which two hemispheres

Northern & Southern hemispheres

Deserts are land areas that...

are dry and water evaporates into the air

9
Land reclamation means:
new land is created from large bodies of water
moving plates collide and results in a new landform
land is dug underground
10
Learning about why people migrate helps us understand
settlement locations & patterns
people's preferences
a population when there is a natural disaster
11
A landform such as a Plateau can be described as
low spaces between hills and mountains
large area of tall land with a mostly flat on top
found at the edge of rivers where they meet the ocean
land that is surrounded on all sides by water
12
Land reclamation is
the process of landforms becoming covered by ice sheets
mining underground or open pit
new land created in large bodies of water
tectonic plates moving and colliding
