Across
4.This type of plate margin is where two tectonic plates slide past each other
6.A natural hazard caused by the movement of tectonic plates (including volcanoes and earthquakes)
7.A sudden or violent movement within the Earth's crust followed by a series of shocks
8.An opening in the Earth's crust from which lava, ash and gases erupt.
14.This plate margin is where two plates are converging or comping together and the oceanic plate is subducted. It can be associated with violent earthquakes and explosive volcanoes
15.The initial impact of a natural event on poeple and property, caused by it, for instance the ground buildings collapsing during an earthquake
Down
1.Attempts to forecast when and where a natural hazard will strike, based onm current knowledge. This can be done to some extent for volcanic eruptions (and tropical storms), but is less reliable for earthquakes
2.A natural event (for example an earthquake, volcanic eruption, tropical storm, flood) that threatens people or has the potential to cause damage, destruction and death.
3.The after- effects that occur as an indirect impact of a natural event, sometimes on a longer timescale, for instance fires due to disrupted gas mains resulting from the ground shaking
5.These type of responses are reactions that can happen weeks, months or years later after the event.
9.Tectonic plate margin where rising magma adds new material to plates that are diverging or moving apart.
10.The probability or chance that a natural hazard may take place
11.The margin or boundary between two tectonic plates
12.The recording of physical changes, such as earthquake tremors around a volcano, to help forecast when and where a natural hazard may strike
13.This type of response happens which is the reaction of the people as the disaster happens and in the immediate aftermath
