.

(a natural disaster is a ‘major adverse event’ resulting from ‘natural processes’ of the ‘earth’)

.

(examples include…)

‘floods’

‘hurricanes’

‘tornadoes’

‘volcanic eruptions’

‘earthquakes’

‘tsunamis’

(+ other ‘geologic processes’)

.

(a ‘natural disaster’ can cause ‘loss of life’ or ‘property damage’, and typically leaves some ‘economic damage’ in its ‘wake’, the severity of which depends on the affected population’s ‘resilience’ (“ability to recover”) + also on the ‘infrastructure’ available)

(an ‘adverse event’ will not rise to the level of a ‘disaster’ if it occurs in an area without ‘vulnerable population(s)’)

.

(in a ‘vulnerable area’, however (such as ‘nepal’ during the ‘2015 earthquake’), an ‘earthquake’ can have ‘disastrous consequences’ and leave lasting damage, which can require years to repair)
