The Mercalli Scale

The Richter Scale

Earthquake proof buildings! Your tasks: Want some more? Earthquake proof buildings! See me! You are going to do some tasks to understand and evaluate the work of Seismologists and other methods of averting destruction! Write the subheadings given! Task 1: Earthquakes Complete tasks 7-8 on the worksheet given (page 15) Task 2: Volcanoes: Look at the table you have been given and cut out the different methods and place them in order of the most effective to the least effective! Next to each one explain how effective / not effective you think this would be and why!

Be prepared! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opXZY1zZ8xk&feature=related What items would you put in an earthquake survival kit in an MEDC/LEDC? Complete the Venn diagram to show your choices!
