HAZARD INFORMATION
Tsunami
A tsunami (a Japanese word meaning “harbour wave”) is a series of waves, travelling at speeds of over 800 km/h in the deep ocean and often going unnoticed.
Volcanoes
Volcanic eruptions occur when magma (molten rock) from inside the Earth rises to the surface along plate boundaries or at weak points within the plates called hotspots.
Tropical Cyclones
A tropical cyclone is a violent rotating windstorm that develops over warm tropical waters warmer than 26.5 ºC and located between 5º and 15º latitude.
Earthquakes
Earthquakes, both deep and shallow, can release huge amounts of energy and so can be extremely damaging to Pacifi c island countries.
Landslides
Landslides occur when rock, soil or waste becomes unstable and moves downward under the infl uence of gravity.
Coastal Erosion
Coastal erosion (or shoreline retreat) is the loss of coastal lands due to the net removal of sediments or bedrock from the shoreline.
