Description

Explore the dangerous and destructive side of nature — the awesome powers of tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfire, volcanoes and more in DK Eyewitness Books: Natural Disasters.

What causes a hurricane to form? Can animals sense an impending earthquake? Discover how Earthquakes, floods and hurricanes affect those in their paths, and what measures we can use to protect ourselves from Mother Nature. Learn about the equipment we can use to predict natural disasters, from tsunami magnitude to the earthquake Richter scale. Photography from around the world, and clear diagrams help you understand the amazing power of nature. This a great reference tool for all the family.

On every colorful page: Vibrant annotated photographs and the integrated text-and-pictures approach that makes Eyewitness a perennial favorite of parents, teachers, and school-age kids.
