The Science of Natural Disasters
As recent events in Haiti and Chile have shown, the Earth is an amazingly dynamic and mobile planet. Solar heating of the Earth's surface drives violent weather such as hurricanes; how the Earth absorbs and reflects this heat causes long term changes in climate. Likewise the cooling of the Earth's deep interior to space drives geological motions, which lead to catastrophic events such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Destructive earthquakes and volcanoes are closely linked through pl
