What measures can be used to assess the development gap?There are many different measures used to assess the development gap, each one offering an alternate way of dividing up the world with regards to how developed it is. Here, we shall look at some of the most common indicators of development used in geography.

Immediate and long-term responses to tectonic hazards - Find out about the immediate and long-term responses to tectonic hazards.

Earthquakes usually occur when deep rock breaks or moves along a fault line. Learn more about the hazards of earthquakes here

Deadliest natural disaster between 1950 and 2022 was estimated to be Cyclone Bhola in Bangladesh in 1970. The 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean was in fourth.
