Where will the next major earthquake happen?
We do not know. Earthquakes are not predictable.
How are bore tide and tsunami different?
Tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the moon (and other astronomical bodies to a lesser extent), and tsunamis are caused by earthquakes. Tides are very predictable, tsunamis are very unpredictable.
Are sandstorms predictable?
Sandstorms are predictable with the right technology. They weren't very predictable until the appropriate technology was developed, and still aren't very predictable in the countries without access to this technology.
Tornados are very predictable?
no :)
How predictable is a flood?
it depends of area how much water there is. some areas have very predictable floods
Are the earthquakes and volcanoes a quick or slow change?
Earthquakes are a very very very very slow and so are valconoes
Are there earthquakes in Estonia?
Yes, but the earthquakes are very rare and weak.
Which is worse earthquakes or tsunamis?
Earthquakes are worse than tsunamis. Earthquakes are mostly unpredictable but tsunamis are sometimes predictable which sets warning for people to escape shore. Earthquakes destroy buildings but tsunamis don't. When tsunamis hit land, the buildings acts like a strong shield that cuts through the tsunami like what the wind-breaker does to the wind. Earthquakes can do more damage than tsunamis because earthquakes destroy buildings which takes much short time than rebuilding it which tsunamis only cause flash flooding which can be recovered as soon as possible. It's very difficult to escape an earthquake but it's sometimes easy to escape a tsunami. It's very difficult to recover the earthquake damage, therefore earthquakes are considered as the modest natural disaster.
How do you compare earthquakes to hurricanes?
Well, they are both natural disasters that can inflict severe harm on people. They can kill and spread mass panic. Some differences would be the fact that hurricanes are far more predictable than earthquakes and that hurricanes usually only affect the shoreline, unlike earthquakes which can happen anywhere.
Why are the people in Chile prepared for earthquakes?
Because earthquakes happen very often there.
What 2 states have the smallest number of earthquakes?
If its in US, Florida and North Dakota are reported to have very less number of earthquakes. Also Antarctica is a continent which has very fewer earthquakes.
Are floods predictable?
Yes. we can predict cyclones using barometer where mercury shows the atmospheric pressure.normal value is 76cms.any flip or flop in this level indicates natural calamty
