Clues
- A combination of all the strengths and resources available within a community that can reduce the risk or the effects of a disaster (8, 2, 4)
- A gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect by absorbing infrared radiation (10, 3)
- A hazard formed by tectonic processes, e.g. volcanoes, earthquakes, landslides, avalanches (11, 6)
- A high risk combined with an inability of individuals and communities to cope (13)
- A rise in the average surface temperature of the planet (6, 7)
- A whirling mass of warm moist air that generally brings stormy weather with strong winds (3, 8, 6)
- Massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, composed of continental and/or oceanic lithosphere, that moves slowly across the asthenosphere (8, 5)
- Such as global warming, and El Nino/La Nina, that may increase the threat of other environmental hazards such as increased sea level rise leads to flood risk (7, 6)
- The risk of disaster increases as the frequency or severity of hazards increases, people's vulnerability increases and people's capacity to cope decreases (8, 4, 8)
- The transfer of heat by the mass movement of heated particles into an area of cooler fluid (10, 7)
