<span style="color: #970794; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">So far this week i have learned some parts of how a tsunami works, that you can get maps on your Wiki, how to get a voki on your wiki. I think that the most dangerous natural disaster is a Earthquake because when a Earthquake starts it wobbles the ground and a lot of things collaps on people and squash them!!!!!!!! ====== =<span style="background-color: #000000; color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Week 3 wikispaces = <span style="color: #47a8f5; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">missed because of camp!!!!

=<span style="background-color: #800080; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; text-align: center;">wikispace week 4: = <span style="color: #ff00ff; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; text-align: center;">This week I learnt that the center of the earth is hotter then the suns surface and that they measure Natural disasters by the richter scale and the Mercalli scale. I think the Richter scale is how strong it is and the Mercalli scale is how much damage it causes. I have also learnt that there are tectonic plates in the center of the earth and the tectonic plates sit on top of lava and when they bang together they make earthquakes also when they bang together they leave gaps witch means lava creeps though and sets off volcanos also that the mantle is 2900km thick!!!!!!!!!!!!!. :)

Also i learnt the first star that comes out is the planet Venus and to top it up Did you Know that planet earth is the third planet from the sun. The natural resources are oil, coal, peteral, gems/minerals, precious rocks, limestone. <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">

<span style="background-color: #800080; color: #47a8f5; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; text-align: center;">This week I learnt that the people of pompeii died from a cloud of ash and the ash made a shell around the people and they turned in to ash I also learnt, that a volcano can be a hill not just a mountain. There are Spatter volcanoes compex volcanoes there are others (just can't remember!!!!). The layers above us are the ozone layer the thermos layer the troposphere the stratosphere and the mesophere. <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">

<span style="background-color: #0000ff; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; text-align: center;">Week 7 This week I have learned that the Pumis volcano is the most dangerous then it was obsidian then Basalt. Pumis takes 20 milliseconds to form and Basalt and obsidian take around about twenty seconds to form. Did you know that people use pumis to help there feet. The things in our atmosphere are 9 Planets including the 4 rock planets and the 5 gas planets, the sun, stars, galaxies and the astroid belt.



<span style="background-color: #0000ff; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; text-align: center;">Week 8: <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; text-align: center;">This week I have learnt that a tanker sunk 43 days ago and oil is spilling everywere over 5000 liters of oil is getting wasted! ( whitch is in the pacific Ocean) I also learnt that Jupiter has 18 moons and pluto has a moon. I learnt that there is 1 sun in our soler system and that is the sun and Mercury Veinis Earth and mars are rock planets and Jupiter Satern Uranis Neptune and Pluto are the gas planets. I also learnt that Mercury and Veinis have no moons what so ever I also learnt that the atmosphere is full of colours. Humans damage the earth by polution such as dropping rubbish cars and gases from factories. We also polute the earth by wasting there resorses such as oil and coal. Humans have caused problems on land by poluting and destoing the environment.

<span style="background-color: #0000ff; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 130%; text-align: center;">Week 9 weekly Reflection

<span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">This week I have learned that in 4 years time a huge comet that is as big as Australia will pass the earth but scientists predict that it will not hit the earth. I also learned that a oil spill can be man made and is clasiffied as a Natural Disaster i also learned that, winter time is the Pacific Ocean hurricane time ( Which is bad at this time because they are trying to fix the oil spill.) I think that we are trying to reduce the effect on nature by by trying not to build buildings if we don't need them and reducing the amount of pollution in the air.

<span style="background-color: #0000ff; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; text-align: center;">ARE HUMANS MORE DANGEROUS THEN MOTHER NATURE ? <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; text-align: center;">I think we are more dangerous then mother nature because we are sending car fumes and gases in to the air which are going up to the ozone layer and wrecking it. We are also more dangerous because we wreck nature by building things we don't need. We can sometimes cause Bush fires and oil spills. We are wrecking the earth by polluting the air with factories and dropping rubbish if we can't find a bin! We are Consuming and to top it up more 60% of the earth is getting polluted and most of all we are wasting the earths resources e.g Oil we are wasting 600,0000 hundred thousand gallons of oil every day is wasted from the oil spill more then 43 days ago we are also wasting coal! so that's my reason.

===<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Pushed by gas pressure, molten rock forces its way upward to break though a weak spot in the Earth's crust. When an eruption occurs, the molten rock pours out as lava flows, or blasts into the air as clouds of lava fragments. Larger pieces fall back around the vent and fragments may slide down the slope as ash flows. Some of the finer materials may be carried far off by wind and fall to the ground miles away. Even finer ash particles can be thrown high into the atmosphere and carried around the world by high altitude winds before landing somewhere. ===

===<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Lava is red-hot when it pours or shoots out of a vent. The color changes to a dark gray, black, or even red as it cools and hardens. Hot lava, rich in gas, containing high amounts of iron and magnesium is fluid and flows like hot tar. Cooler lava, low in gas but rich in silicon, sodium, and potassium flows lazily, like thick dough. Magma contains dissolved gases, and as they rise to the surface, the restraining pressures decrease and the dissolved gases escape, sometimes explosively. ===

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">About earthquakes

<span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">An //earthquake// occurs when rocks break under the stress created by the constant movement and collision of the thin jigsaw-like //tectonic plates// found at the surface of the Earth. Rock breakage is called //faulting// and causes a release of energy when stored stress is suddenly converted to movement. Vibrations known as //seismic waves// are produced - they travel outwards in all directions at up to 14 kilometres per second. At these speeds, it would take the fastest waves only 20 minutes or so to reach the other side of the Earth by going straight through its centre - that's a distance of almost 13,000 kilometres. The waves distort the rock they pass through, but the rock returns to its original shape afterwards. The //epicentre// is the point on the Earth?s surface directly above the source of the earthquake. The source, also known as the //focus//, can be as deep as 700 kilometres. Earthquakes do not occur deeper than this because rocks are no longer rigid at very high pressures and temperatures - they can't store stress because they behave plastically. Smaller events occur more frequently - in fact, most earthquakes cause little or no damage. A very large earthquake can be followed by a series of smaller //aftershocks// while minor faulting occurs during an adjustment period that may last for several months. Earthquakes can also cause //tsunamis//, which are giant ocean-waves that can cross an ocean and may cause extensive damage in coastal regions. In areas where there are steep slopes, vibrations may cause //landslides//.

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> Here are some tips of what to do during an earthquake: ** Richter Scale ** **Click Here** to learn about cool earthquake facts!
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Do **NOT** go outside. You could get hurt from falling glass or parts of buildings. If you are outside, stay away from buildings and power lines.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Take cover under a desk, table, or other large and stable piece of furniture. Hold on to it. Or stand in a doorway and brace yourself.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Stay away from windows, heavy furniture, appliances, mirrors, pictures, and anything else that could fall and hurt you. Also stay away from fireplaces. You could lose your balance and hurt yourself on the fire.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">If you are driving when an earthquake happens, stop the car if it’s safe. Stay inside your car until the earthquake stops, and don’t drive near bridges or tunnels. Try not to stop by power lines, light posts, signs, or trees. These could fall and hurt you.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Stay alert for falling objects. Most people get injured by falling objects during an earthquake, not by the shaking itself.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Do **NOT** use matches, lighters, or candles. If there is a broken gas line, you could spark a fire or explosion.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Do **NOT** use elevators. There might be a power outage due to the earthquake, and you could get stuck in the elevator.

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">What is a tsunami?
<span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">A tsunami is a series of ocean waves with very long wavelengths (typically hundreds of kilometres) caused by large-scale disturbances of the ocean, such as: <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">These disturbances can either be from below (e.g. underwater earthquakes with large vertical displacements, submarine landslides) or from above (e.g. meteorite impacts). Tsunami is a Japanese word with the English translation: "harbour wave". In the past, tsunamis have been referred to as "tidal waves" or "seismic sea waves". The term "tidal wave" is misleading; even though a tsunami's impact upon a coastline is dependent upon the tidal level at the time a tsunami strikes, tsunamis are unrelated to the tides. (Tides result from the gravitational influences of the moon, sun, and planets.) The term "seismic sea wave" is also misleading. "Seismic" implies an earthquake-related generation mechanism, but a tsunami can also be caused by a non-seismic event, such as a landslide or meteorite impact. Tsunamis are also often confused with storm surges, even though they are quite different phenomena. A storm surge is a rapid rise in coastal sea-level caused by a significant meteorological event - these are often associated with tropical cyclones.

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">media type="youtube" key="mknStAMia0Q" height="385" width="480"About Landslides 

The driving force behind all landslides is gravity. A landslide will occur when the gravitational pull increases when weight is added to the rock mass, for example, building on it or when the rock becomes saturated with water. The strength of a rock mass can be reduced by weathering, earthquakes, etc. Landslides occur for a variety of reasons. They often occur as a result of natural phenomena but human activity can also be a factor:

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Landslides may move very slowly from a few centimetres per year to a sudden, total collapse or avalanche. Landslides may travel just a few metres to many kilometers in the event of mudflows. Landslides can be deadly. They destroy houses, cars, water mains, gas pipes … anything in their path. <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Landslides and mudflows can strike without warning, trapping or burying people.
 * 1) Vibrations from earthquakes can trigger a landslide.
 * 2) Waterlogging due to heavy rains can saturate the top layers of unstable soil and cause them to slide downhill.
 * 3) Human activity such as deforestation, vegetation removal, construction of roads, and construction of buildings on steep slopes may also lead to landslippage.



<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">media type="youtube" key="7eV8uE4-Gk4" height="425" width="541"About cyclones Tropical cyclones produce extreme winds which may exceed 200 km/h. These winds can cause extensive property damage and cause airborne debris to become potentially lethal missiles. It is important to remember that the passage of the cyclone centre or "eye" will produce a temporary lull in the wind but that this will soon be replaced by extreme winds from another direction. Cyclones also produce flood rains, which can cause further damage and raises the instance of possible drowning. Stay clear of all storm drains as flash flooding of these drains pose huge risks especially to children. The phenomenal seas accompanying cyclones are dangerous both for vessels out at sea and those moored in harbours; serious erosion of the adjacent foreshore can also occur. Another marine phenomenon that can cause inundation of low-lying coastal areas is the storm surge. This is a raised dome of water about 60 to 80 km across and typically about 2 to 5m higher than the normal tide level. If the surge occurs at the same time as a high tide then the area inundated may be quite extensive.

media type="youtube" key="B0RWLxOFGLY" height="385" width="480"About avalanches Avalanches kill an average of 200 people each year. The victims of avalanche incidents are mostly the snow-mobilers, snow-boarders and skiers. Avalanches are snowballs which roll down the mountainside and shatter like a glass. Avalanches mostly occur after a heavy snowfall. When the snow piles up quickly, it weakens the layer beneath the snow and causes a fracture. This loosens the snow on the top layer causing it to move down the mountain slope at a great speed. A victim caught in an avalanche seldom escapes. The factors that foster an avalanche include temperature, storminess, wind and also the steepness of the slope.

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">

media type="youtube" key="u0EEXWyhjM8" height="385" width="480"About droughts Drought can be defined as a condition of unusually dry climate within a certain geographic region due to lack of annual rainfall. Drought is a natural disaster, which is hazardous to human beings because it results in water shortage, causes damages to crops, and an increased death rate of livestock and wild animals. Drought also results in shortage of electricity. Reports show, many people worldwide die during the time of drought. In drought-prone areas certain measures such as construction of reservoirs, rain-harvest system and stopping over-grazing could be taken. Drought causes increase in food prices and unemployment. The incidents of forest fires would be more at the time of drought. Drought affects the entire human and animal population of that geographical location. <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">

=<span style="color: #ff00ff; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Try to make a difference to the climate =

=
There are several little things we can do to make a difference. Try car pooling. This will help reduce the amount of fossil fules going into the atmosphere. Whenever you use electricity, you help put green house gases in to the air. Maybe if you turn off the lights, the television and the computer when you are done with them. Also, planting trees is a great way to reduce greenhouse gases and finally don't for get about recycling. ======

How does rain form? Water droplets form warm air. The warm air rises, in the sky it cools. water vaper (invisable water) always exists in our in our air. Warm air holds a lot of water e.g. in the summer it is usually very humid. When enough of these droplets collect together we see them as clouds.If the clouds are big enough and have enough water droplets the droplets bang together and form even bigger drops. When the drops get heavy, they fall because of gravity and we feel and see rain.

What type of cloud is so lazy, because it will never get up? Fog!

What did the lightning bolt say to the other lightning bolt? <span style="background-color: #970794; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> You're shocking!

What did the one tornado say to the other? Let’s twist again like we did last summer.

What’s the difference between a horse and the weather? .  One is reined up and the other rains down.

What did one raindrop say to the other raindrop? My plop is bigger than your plop.

Why did the woman go outdoors with her purse open? Because she expected some change in the weather. <span style="background-color: #970794; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">

A THERMOMETER measures the air temperature. Most thermometers are closed glass tubes containing liquids such as alcohol or mercury. When air around the tube heats the liquid, the liquid expands and moves up the tube. A scale then shows what the actual temperature is.
 * Weather Instruments **

A BAROMETER measures air pressure. It tells you whether or not the pressure is rising or falling. A rising barometer means sunny and dry conditions, while a falling barometer means stormy and wet conditions. An Italian scientist named Torricelli built the first barometer in 1643. A SLING PSYCHROMETER measures relative humidity, using the cooling effect of evaporation. Two thermometers are used in a sling psychrometer. Wet the cloth of one of the thermometers and swing the psychrometer around a few times. Water evaporates from the cloth, causing the temperatures on that thermometer to be lower the the other.

A RAIN GAUGE measures the amount of rain that has fallen over a specific time period.

A WIND VANE is an instrument that determines the direction from which the wind is blowing.

An ANEMOMETER measures wind speed. The cups catch the wind, turning a dial attached to the instrument. The dial shows the wind speed.

WEATHER MAPS indicate atmospheric conditions above a large portion of the Earth's surface. Meteorologists use weather maps to forecast the weather.

A HYGROMETER measures the water vapor content of air or the humidity.

A WEATHER BALLOON measures weather conditions higher up in the atmosphere.

WEATHER SATELLITES are used to photograph and track large-scale air movements. Then meteorologists compile and analyze the data with the help of computers.

**How do winter storms form?** Winter storms derive their energy from the clash of two air masses of different temperatures and moisture levels. Winter storms usually form when an air mass of cold, dry, Canadian air moves south and interacts with a warm, moist air mass moving north from the Gulf of Mexico. The point where these two air masses meet is called a front. If cold air advances and pushes away the warm air, it forms a cold front. When warm air advances, it rides up over the denser, cold air mass to form a warm front. If neither air mass advances, it forms a stationary front.

Lightning is a bright flash of electricity produced by a thunderstorm. All thunderstorms produce lightning and are very dangerous. If you hear the sound of thunder, then you are in danger from lightning. Lightning kills and injures more people each year than hurricanes or tornadoes; between 75 to 100 people. Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges. The positive charges or protons form at the top of the cloud and the negative charges or electrons form at the bottom of the cloud. Since opposites attract, that causes a positive charge to build up on the ground beneath the cloud. The grounds electrical charge concentrates around anything that sticks up, such as mountains, people, or single trees. The charge coming up from these points eventually connects with a charge reaching down from the clouds and - zap - lightning strikes!
