What to Focus On

  • Hazard is a potential threat; disaster is the actual harmful event.
  • Disasters result from the combination of hazard, vulnerability, and insufficient coping capacity.
  • India is highly vulnerable to multiple natural hazards due to its vast and diverse geography.
  • Geological hazards involve Earth's crust movements.
  • Hydrological hazards are water-related.
  • Meteorological hazards are short-term weather events.
  • Earthquakes are caused by tectonic movements, volcanoes, or human activity.
  • Effects include shaking, landslides, fires, and tsunamis.
  • India has four seismic zones: II (low) to V (very high risk).

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All earthquakes happen because of tectonic plates. If there's no plate boundary, no earthquake can occur.

Tsunami means 'tidal wave', so it is caused by tides.

Volcanoes in India are active and dangerous like those in Japan or Italy.
