What is a natural disaster? Do you know how they form and where they occur the most often? What impact do they have on the community and environment by https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt Share your knowledge with the class en-us 2017-09-04 01:30:24 UTC 2024-07-15 05:55:56 UTC hello@padlet.com Tidal Waves Opposed to Tsunami's https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/184629499 By Tahlia, Cynthia and Ruby...

What is the difference between a tidal wave and a tsunami?
Although both are sea waves, a tsunami and a tidal wave are two different and unrelated phenomena. A tidal wave is the wave motion of the tides. A tidal wave is a shallow water wave caused by the gravitational interactions between the Sun, Moon, and Earth.

Tsunamis happen when earthquakes, landslides or volcanic eruptions disturb the ocean floor. Most tsunamis occur when there are earthquakes at tectonic plate areas.]]> 2017-09-11 03:48:54 UTC https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186230819 Firenado's https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186230835 By Cristian, Ryan and Gordon

Firenado's happen when strong winds combine in a Bush fire and the winds trap the fire in a spinning spiral going up then when the fire is high enough it loses its energy and burns out.

Here is a Fire Tornado!

In short they are like mini tornado's but they're made of fire!

Or it could happen when there is just to much rain for drains and they overflow. They do not occur specifically in certain places but can be extremely dangerous]]> 2017-09-11 03:49:05 UTC https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186230837 floods, floods and more floods https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186231137 by Nate
i think that floods are the worst natural disaster and have a larger death toll than cyclones and bush fires. also, they are much more likely than all other natural disasters. the worst flood ever recorded was in china and took place in 1938.

A Cyclone is an intense tropical storm with powerful winds and heavy rain. A cyclone can be formed by the water temperature being 26.5 degrees or higher. Other names for a cyclone include Hurricane, Typhoon and Tropical Storm. A cyclone can have sever wind, heavy rainfall and storm surge. While they are essential the same thing, different names normally indicate where they took place]]> 2017-09-11 03:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186231285 Alex, Mackenzie and Grace E. Earthquakes. https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186231341 Earthquakes occur near the ring of fire which is surrounded by the Pacfic Ocean. They are mostly seen when two diffrent types of tectonic plates meet and thats when the Earth starts to shake.

Tsunamis mainly occur in the pacific ocean and usually in China. Potential energy is formed by underwater volcanoes and earthquakes. The Potential energy creates a three foot of higher wall of water. Then as the wall of water gets closer to shore it gets bigger and creates a tsunami. ]]> 2017-09-11 03:55:30 UTC https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186231422 Floods By Sam and Thomas https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186232050 Floods are when a large mass of water overflows an area of usually dry land.
There are three main types of floods; flash floods, slow set floods and rapid on set floods. ]]> 2017-09-11 04:01:42 UTC https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186232050 Tsunamis https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186232063 Hemish and Deep

Tsunamis occur most often in the Pacific Ocean and Indonesia because the Pacific Rim bordering the Ocean has a large number of active submarine earthquake zones. However, tsunamis have also occurred recently in the Mediterranean Sea region and are expected in the Caribbean Sea as well.

another question people offten ask is what is the difrance between a title wave and a tsunamis the diffrance is that a title wave is a really big wave caused by the tide and they are also smaller ]]> 2017-09-11 04:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186232084 tornados https://padlet.com/scorry1/z2p8kfjjtslt/wish/186232265 Lucy, Grace and Ruban

Landslides are usually unexpected.
They don't have a specific place that they occur.
They are caused by the movement of rock on high steep places.
landslides can destroy many peoples family and their homes as well.
landslides occur in many places that have a steep place that could have rock movement.
they occur on mountains, hills
