A community must have a high level of preparedness pertaining to natural hazards as well as basic knowledge on them. If a community is very clear on what actions to take in an event of a natural hazard, then certain procedures such as evacuations would go smoothly. Also, with basic knowledge, more people will be aware of the seriousness of the hazard and this can help to save many lives. Preparedness plays an important role as well, because in an evacuation, people cannot lag behind just because they are packing their valuables or trying to save their property. For example, in the event of Hurricane Katrina, many residents in Louisiana were not taking it seriously, because they have survived many hurricanes before in their homes. However, due to the massive scale of the hurricane, homes in its path were all destroyed and numerous ignorant people perished. Another example would be the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami: Many locals and tourists did not know why the seawater was receding and instead of running to high ground immediately, they went to 'inspect' the shoreline. When the tsunami wave arrived and they started to panic, it was already too late. This shows how important preparedness and basic knowledge can save numerous lives in a natural hazard.

How do you reduce the Doppler effect?
You can't, it is a natural phenomena that is a result of the way waves are. You can correct for it if you understand how it works, but there is no way to 'reduce' it. Also, you usually wouldn't want to, because it is extremely useful in many fields!
What is the difference between a natural hazard and a natural disaster, and how can understanding this distinction help in mitigating the impact of such events?
A natural hazard is a natural event that has the potential to cause harm or damage, such as an earthquake or hurricane. A natural disaster, on the other hand, occurs when a hazard actually causes significant harm or damage to people, property, or the environment. Understanding the distinction between natural hazards and natural disasters can help in mitigating their impact by allowing for better preparation and response. By identifying potential hazards and assessing their risks, communities can develop plans and strategies to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience. This can include implementing building codes, creating evacuation plans, and investing in early warning systems. By being proactive and prepared, the impact of natural disasters can be minimized, saving lives and reducing damage.
