Choose a starting point

Start with Causes of River Floods if you want to compare physical and human factors. Its branches include rainfall, slopes, deforestation and construction. For a case study, Boscastle Case Study offers a place to focus your study.

Study with the maps

Follow a branch from its main idea to the details, then cover it and try to explain the connections in your own words. Compare a causes map with a case study to see how the topics fit together. If you want to check recall or review terms, switch to a quiz or flashcard deck on the unit page. Choose a map and follow a branch that interests you.
