Natural disasters
In "Natural Disasters," Thomas Schröter examines the complex causes, effects, and historical contexts of natural disasters that have shaped humanity throughout history. From geological events such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions to meteorological phenomena such as hurricanes and floods to biological disasters such as epidemics and pandemics – the book offers a comprehensive overview of the various forms of natural disasters and their interactions with climate change.
Each chapter illuminates the specific characteristics and dynamics of each disaster type and addresses how social, economic, and ecological factors influence the vulnerability of communities. Schröter combines scientific findings with compelling case studies and historical examples to illustrate the urgency of responsible management of our environment and the risks of climate change.
This book is not only a contribution to understanding the complex interrelationships between natural events, but also a compelling call for global action to protect people and nature. "Natural Disasters" is aimed at anyone interested in environmental issues, students of geoscience, climate research, and public health, and readers who want to gain deeper insight into the challenges and opportunities of a changing world.
