Floods are obviously caused by heavy rainfall. This creates two hazards, the flooding of waterways, and the increase of landslips.
As to waterways, usually records will be available as to historic floods in the area.
Landslides are a rather different matter. If a hill surface is steeper than its rest angle, it will slip if it becomes saturated with water. This tendency is increased by the removal of forest and ground cover, and when a hillside is urbanized, the stormwater will be discharged much more quickly. (From the roofs etc.)
One early effect of climate warming is to increase the amount of water vapour evaporated into the air. This will eventually be deposited as rainfall, or if transported to higher latitudes, as snow.
If you are a believer in climate change, then you may expect higher monsoon floods, generally higher rainfalls, and an increase in landslips.
If you are not such a believer, you may just be mildly surprized.
So to the Q. Bear the above in mind when purchasing a property.
They are made up of Peat and help protect houses from floods!!!!
Hydropower affects the aquatic life. It displaces the people living nearby.It is more prone to floods.
Thermal means 'temperature' and 'environment' means that which surrounds you. Temperature would include the ambient heat of the air, hot/cold surfaces and sources of thermal radiation. Wind chill would also be a factor to consider. Therefore the 'thermal environment' means the temperature of your surroundings and these would change and present different risks depending on where you were. For instance if you were at the North or South pole you would be in danger of freezing to death. Standing by a lava flow or near a forest fire, you would be in danger of burning to death. People normally protect themselves from thermal discomfort by means of the cloaths they wear or by heating or cooling the buildings they live in. People placing themselves in thermal extremes (hot or cold) would take specialist precautions - fireman's suits or survival suits. Finally sunbathers would protect themselves form the sun by covering up and using sun cream.
They used only themselves.
Goods that they can consume themselves
it can and can not be posiable
People can protect themselves by moving to higher grounds
they build flood gates and barriers to protect houses
some people protect themselves by paunching the anther people that is tiring to heart him
People who cannot protect or defend themselves, from the age of newborn to age 14 most children will not be able to protect themselves from harm. Also old people who are fragile cannot protect themselves as someone who would be middle-aged.
To feed the people, protect the people, discipline the people, lead the people, care for the people, and control of fertilizing floods of the Nile
To protect the people from Mesopotamia, the people used the code of Hamurabi.
they spray people
They cant protect themselves, it would be very difficult to travel from one place to another.
So ordinary people can protect themselves.
with their surrondings
yes they do
