About natural hazards slides
GoConqr OriginalNatural hazards slides
These slide sets cover types of hazards, vulnerability and individual events. Geography - Hazardous Environments introduces tropical cyclones, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. Other sets look at disasters in the Philippines, flooding in Srinagar and hazards such as volcanoes and tsunamis.
Using the slide sets
Start with Geography - Hazardous Environments for an overview of different hazards. Its objectives also include the causes of tropical cyclones. Then move to Vulnerability and Processes to explore why an environment may be exposed to a tsunami, or choose a case study for a closer look at an event.
After reading a set, write down what you remember about the hazard and its effects, then check the slides. Switch to a mind map on the unit page if you want to see connections between ideas, or try a quiz to check your recall. Choose a set that fits the topic you are studying.
Frequently asked questions
Which slide set is a good place to start?
Geography - Hazardous Environments is a useful starting point because it introduces tropical cyclones, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. After that, you can move to a case study, such as the slides on disasters in the Philippines, to look at particular events in more detail.
Are these slide resources free to use?
Yes. Every slide resource listed here is free to open and study without an account. The resources were made by GoConqr users, so their coverage and presentation may differ. You can look through the sets and choose those that fit the topic you are studying or teaching.
Which courses do the slides suit?
Some slide sets refer to GCSE Geography or A-level Geography. They include a GCSE resource on Typhoon Haiyan and an A-level set on earth hazards. The collection is mainly aimed at secondary-level study, so school students and teachers can check each set against their course topics.
