Natural events are occurrences that happen in the environment without human intervention. These can include phenomena like earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, and tornadoes. They are caused by natural processes within the Earth or the atmosphere and can have significant impacts on the landscape and living organisms. Another type of natural event is weather-related phenomena, such as rainstorms, snowfalls, and droughts. These events are influenced by atmospheric conditions and can vary in intensity and duration. Understanding these natural events helps scientists predict their occurrence and mitigate their effects on communities and ecosystems.
