Natural disasters can occur in just about any country. Since Indonesia has a large population and a less well-developed infrastructure than many other countries its people tend to suffer more when disasters do occur. Since Indonesia has a wet, tropical climate it is prone to heavy thunderstorms that can easily cause flooding. It is also located near what is called a subduction zone, where one tectonic plate slides under another. This geologic setup has given rise to quite a few volcanoes and leaves the potential for major earthquakes and tsunamis.

How can an ecosystem recover a natural disaster?

This is a fairly broad question given that there are many kinds of natural disasters and many kinds of ecosystems to which such disasters may happen. But in general, life only needs a tiny toehold with which to start to regain its former abundance, and once this process begins, the ecosystem will normally start to heal in some way. However, some disasters are more destructive than others, and in some cases recovery is very slow.
