1. The Earth systems affect each other in different ways. O am only going to talk about one way which is that natural disasters can cause each other. While researching Tsunamis, I saw that Earthquakes and landslides can create Tsunamis.

2. Learning environmental science will help people understand what to do when encountering natural disasters and what can be done to prevent them.

3. I found this project interesting because even though I already knew what caused Tsunamis I didn’t pay attention to the role of matter or how Tsunamis affected the Earth system.

How do the earth systems affect each other? There are multiple earth systems that are involved with volcanoes and their eruptions. The atmosphere is affected by the smoke, the hydrosphere is affected by the messed up atmosphere, the geosphere makes the volcano, and people can be affected by the eruption. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? It can help prevent too much damage from the aftermath of a natural disaster

Hurricanes are a type of tropical cyclone, which is a generic term for a low pressure system that generally forms in the tropics, is accompanied by storms and a lot of thunder, in the northern hemisphere it makes a circulation of winds near the surface in counterclockwise direction, On land hurricanes also gain strength due to humidity and hot air, highlighting as an important point we can say that storms convert the heat of the ocean into fuel for hurricanes and that is like their food and the beginning of their training before expanding.

visual organizer What should you do during a hurricane Before: identify safety zones. During: Stay calm and stay away from windows and objects that could fall. After: Check if everything is okay.

How do Earth systems affect each other? It causes ecosystem degradation, loss of biodiversity and soil impoverishment, among other negative effects.

How can understanding environmental sciences help in dealing with natural disasters? Following all the instructions that specialists give us to keep us safe.

1. The hydrosphere and geosphere interact when rain water weathers rocks, effectively ”melting” them away over thousands of years.
2. Studying natural hazards, we can better understand how these phenomena work and the threats they pose.

How do the earth systems affect each other? How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters?

• If the atmosphere is off, like too much C02 for instance, it will affect earth in many ways such as, global warming. The Earth has gone up one degrees celsius. Which doesn’t sound like a lot but the summers are getting hotter and if you notice we haven’t had a good snow storm since I was like 3 or 4 ( 2009-2010).

• If we know what in the environment contributes to the disasters, then we can stop them from occurring. We can stop floods by not cutting down trees. When you cut down a tree, the C02 that was in it gets released into the atmosphere which creates more heat. The more humidity there is, the more rain will come in the future. When there’s a lot of rain, it floods.

1. One way the Earth Systems affect each other is weather. When it affects the hydrosphere we get rain, snow, hail, etc. For example, Humans (biosphere) breathe air (atmosphere) and water (hydrosphere) helping the soil and plant (geosphere.) Also weather can affect how they connect depending on what it is like on a certain day.
2. If you can understand what’s going on in Environmental science around your state, country, or even world you can learn ways to prevent or help certain natural disasters. For example if you know the causes to certain natural disasters you can help prevent them from happening.

1. They affect each other by causing changes in the weather and our ecosystem. For example, when wildfires happen it has to do with things happening in our ecosystem. Another example is when there is an earthquake, that affects the geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and lithosphere. These are just a few examples of how they affect each other but there are still plenty more examples.
2. It can help people from getting injured or dying from these types of unpredictable situations. They can also learn how to control those types of situations so that they never get out of hand. This could help us develop and look out for certain signs and signals of what’s to come. This is what I feel is possible if humans learn and delve a little deeper into what we already know about the world as it is.

1. The Earth system is made up of a number of interconnected subsystems, or “spheres,” that work together to produce a complex and dynamic whole. The elements that comprise the Earth system are what determine our capacity to survive here.

2. Having an understanding of environmental science can put you in the predicament of knowing what to do and how to react when something occurs that’s a natural disaster.

I found it very interesting to know how far a hurricane can reach and the speed it can have when it rains a lot.

2) By studying natural hazards, we can better understand how these phenomena work and the threats they pose to the land and the things that can happen if it becomes too strong.

A hurricane is a rapidly rotating tropical cyclonic storm characterized by a low pressure center, a closed low-level atmospheric circulation, and strong. Well, the truth is there are many hurricanes that are very dangerous but as you can see in the photo, Hurricane Lee remained a Category 3 storm. The storm’s maximum sustained winds are close to 65 mph. It is located about 1,215 miles northwest of the Cape Verde Islands and moves at 8 mph. Hurricanes are caused by strong winds and storms.

1. Earth systems affect each other because one natural disaster can lead to another. Like an earthquake making a tsunami. These are 2 different systems basically interacting.
2. By studying natural disasters, we can better understand how they work and the threats they pose.
3. I was surprised that earthquakes can actually cause other natural disasters.

The most common place to see a Tsunami is the Pacific Ocean, specifically the Ring of Fire; Also known as the Circum-Pacific Belt this area had the highest number of tsunami activity. Tsunamis are caused by a under of things, most commonly being underwater explosions and the shifting of tectonic plates. These cause deep displacements of water that rise to the surface and create large waves. These waves then travel hundreds of meters until they reach land.

How do the earth systems affect each other? - The force of the water, pollutants, and toxic substances can also harm natural resources on and off shore. The force of the water can take down heavy things such as buildings and trees. This destroys animal habitats and rapidly kills the land animals. The marine animals are also affected because of the chemicals on land, these chemicals have a high potential for poisoning them. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? - An understanding of environmental science aid can better prepare people by making them knowledgeable on what exactly they’re dealing with and more importantly how to prepare for it if they cannot avoid it.

How do the earth’s systems affect each other?

• Each and every one of our Earth Systems works hand and hand. With that being said there are times when they might affect each other. For example, when it comes to droughts when there’s less rainfall and more dry conditions in the atmosphere that causes there is a lack of water availability throughout parts of the hydrosphere. This can lead there being desertification in the geosphere and eventually probably ends up affecting the biosphere as well since they all go hand and hand.

geosphere releases its gases that can cause the

How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters?

• Having an understanding of Environmental Science can aid in handling natural disasters because it allows us to handle and mitigate the impact of natural disasters. With that, I mean that it allows us to use a more holistic approach when it comes to how when can be prepared, how to recover, and what we can do to prevent it. Finally, it allows us to extend our research and better our understanding of natural disasters.

Your reaction to your findings and overall project

• Nothing necessarily surprised me when doing all of the research on Droughts. The only thing that was “surprising” was that I expected there to be way more information on the subject, and way more people who are advocating for change/support. Outside of these things, I think it was interesting to learn about something that isn’t spoken about enough, and now I am able to express my understanding to others and help spread awareness on this topic.

earth systems affect each other in various ways, with tsunamis the geosphere,biosphere,and hydrosphere are interacting with one another in such a way that is sending energy waves back and forth that cause the tsunami

an understanding of environmental science aids in handling natural disasters because the more we know about the world and its processes the better we can understand these natural disasters and get to the root of them in order to acheive effective ways of handling them.

this project has taught me a lot about tsunamis and that there is so much more involved with tsunamis than i previously thought.

1. I believe they affect each other because when a natural disaster occurs and impacts an earth system, the negative effects caused to 1 earth system could cause a domino effect and lead to more danger.

2. Knowledge of a disaster could lead to future research and potentially find ways to end or a least suppress the effects that natural disasters can cause

Reflection: Earth systems affect each other in many ways, In the cause of tsunamis, the bioshpere,geoshpere and hydrosphere are interacting and exchanging the energy that’s being released from the tsunami. Understanding tsunamis helped me understand the transfer of energy between Earth systems, and by understanding the signs, like weird ocean behavior and loud sounds, it can alert everyone to get to safety.

Droughts start with a lack of rain due to changes in weather and climate patterns. When drought drags on, plants and trees can die from lack of water. Losing these plants leads to an excess of carbon because their aren’t enough plants to go through the photosynthesis process, leading to the demise of the carbon cycle. Thus, one earth system’s downfall creates a chain of events.

The environment is connected to everything. When one part has problems, it causes problems for other parts too. Like with droughts. Droughts happen when there’s little rain. This kills plants and trees since it dries them out, causing them to die off. This can cause wildfires due to dry trees and plants easily being able to catch fire. Mind you, combustion releases CO2 into the atmosphere and causes an excess of it. Droughts aren’t just about a lack of rain. They impact plants, animals„ fires, air quality, and much more. Knowing these connections helps scientists predict disasters earlier.

Overall, I’m not surprised at all by my findings. Droughts are pretty simple to understand, and I could name all the effects of them prior to even doing research. I just wish I had more time for my project so I could have tied it back together nicely.

How do the earth systems affect each other?

Earths systems affect each other by impacting one another. Without one system the other system can’t happen, they need each other in order to be able to happen.The atmosphere impacts climate and weather, the hydrosphere shapes the land and gets affected by it, and the geosphere releases gases and minerals that affect the atmosphere and finally the biosphere that includes all life, relies on these processes for resources and contributes to their operation.

How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters?

Understanding environmental science can help us handle natural disasters by being able to prepare in advance by having previous knowledge about the earths systems.The more knowledge we have the more chances and possibilities there are for us to be able to predict and use our resources accordingly. Having the right understanding and knowledge could also possibly help us reduce the damage that natural disasters usually cause to the environment or maybe help us prevent them.

How do the earth systems affect each other?

The Earth’s atmosphere is important in the creation of storms. A hurricane gets its energy from warm ocean water. When sea surface temperatures rise, evaporation occurs and latent heat energy is released into the atmosphere.

How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters?

Understanding environmental science may help in dealing with natural disasters by monitoring natural phenomena such as weather patterns, ocean currents, and river levels in order to predict natural disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, and, of course, hurricanes. Because of the early warning, communities can prepare and evacuate, decreasing the loss of life and property.

Visual Component:

During our presentation, we will showcase a poster on how to be prepared for hurricanes.

How do the earth’s systems affect each other?

Hurricanes develop by starting in the hydrosphere as warm air and ocean tides interact. Weather and climate also play a big part in how these systems interact. Tropical areas are more likely to be the perfect place for Hurricanes to develop through the earth’s systems.

How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters?

In environmental science, by studying natural disasters, we can better understand how these disasters work and how to properly prepare for them.

Through this project, we were able l to research interesting facts about Hurricanes and we can’t wait to share them with the class on how many people are affected by hurricanes and how to prepare.

The Earth’s atmosphere plays a critical role in the formation of hurricanes. Warm ocean water provides the energy source for a hurricane. When sea surface temperatures rise, it increases evaporation and releases latent heat energy into the atmosphere.

Understanding environmental science can aid in handling natural disasters by monitoring various natural events, such as weather patterns, ocean currents, and river levels, to predict natural disasters like tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, and obviously hurricanes. This early warning allows communities to prepare and evacuate, reducing the loss of life and property.

VISUAL COMPONENT

At a random time in our presentation, we will make loud noises; maybe with the tables, chairs, and/or other items (illustrating an Earthquake). Students/audience will then perform the safety precautions we will explain during an earthquake.

How do the earth systems affect each other?

Earthquakes start out by a disruption in the Geosphere. This usually directly affects the atmosphere by releasing methane into the air and the hydrosphere by causing huge waves.

How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters?

In environmental science, by studying natural hazards, we can better understand how these phenomena work and the threats they pose to humans and the Earth systems.

How do the earth’s systems affect each other? - I think the earth’s systems affect each other because the climate affects all of life on Earth. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? - We can better understand how to prevent or prepare for natural disasters. My reaction to the project was that I thought it was pretty cool because I am really interested into weather and climate.
