Slide1
Hi, everyone. I’m . Good to see you all
As you all know, today I am going to talk to you about natural disaster
Slide2
I’m the leader and there are our member.(chỉ tay r tự nói)
Slide3
My presentation is divided into 2 parts.
Firstly I will talk about WHAT IS NATURAL DISASTERS
then I will look at TSUNAMI
Slide4
Now let’s turn to the first part of my talk which is aboutWHAT IS NATURAL DISASTER
NATURAL DISASTERS, also natural hazards are extreme, sudden events caused by
environmental factors such as storms, floods, droughts, fires, and heatwaves
Slide5
So now we come to the next point, which is Tsunami
In part two there will be 5 small portions
Slide6
1.What is a tsunami?
Tsunamis are giant waves caused by earthquakes or underwater volcanic eruptions.
Tsunamis are giant waves caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea. Out
in the depths of the ocean, tsunami waves do not dramatically increase in height. But as the
waves travel inland, they build up to higher and higher heights as the depth of the ocean
decreases. The speed of tsunami waves depends on ocean depth rather than the distance
from the source of the wave.
Slide7
At this slide we ‘ll give you some information about tsunami
Tsunami occur most frequently in the Pacific butare a global phenomenon; Tsunamis can occur
anywhere with large bodies of water, includinginland lakesTsunami occur most frequently in the
Pacific but are a global phenomenon; Tsunamis can occur anywhere withlarge bodies of water,
including inland lakes
The first wave hit Hilo, Hawaii approximately 14.8 hours after it formed off the coast of South
Central Chile. The highest wave at Hilo Bay measured approximately 10.7m (35 ft.). 61 people
died due to not paying attention to the sirens.
When at sea, the tsunami waves' height is insignificant, but the closer you move inland, they rise
higher and higher
Slide8
Let’s turn to the next issue REASONS
There are 3 reason why the tsunami occur we want to tell with you
Volcanic eruptions: If a volcano collapses into the ocean, it can displace a large volume of water
and create a tsunami.
Landslides: Landslides can occur on land or underwater.
Earthquakes: These are themostcommon type of earthquake to cause tsunamis.

Next,4effects
Slide10
- Effect on the economy
Tsunamis killed 251,770 people and caused economic losses of up to $280 billion from 1998 to
2017, mainly in countries bordering the Indo-Pacific
- Effect on people
Tsunamis can destroy coastal areas, homes, boats, and infrastructure on the coast. Moreover, a
Tsunami can cause human casualties and loss of property.
Slide 11
Finally, What we should do?
Slide12
Before
Find out if your home, school, workplace or other frequently visited locations are in
tsunami hazard areas
Make a personalized preparedness emergency kit. Families should be prepared to be self-
sustaining for at least three days.
If you have already dipped into your emergency kit and food supply while staying at
home, consider safely getting the supplies to replenish it following your local public
health authorities’ guidelines for leaving your residence.
Slide13
During
If you feel an tsunami, drop, cover and hold:
Drop: drop to the ground before the earthquake causes you to fall.
Cover: Take cover under a piece of heavy furniture such as a desk or table to protect your
head and torso from falling objects.
Hold: hold onto the object you are under so that you remain covered.
Slide14
AFTER
Be aware of secondary effects. These include landslides, contaminated water, mudflows,
damaged bridges, buildings and roads, and other hazards.
Stay out of any building that has water around it. Tsunami force can cause floors to crack or
walls to collapse.
Do not light matches or turn on lights or appliances until you are sure there are no gas leaks or
flammable liquids spilled. Avoid use of contaminated water.
