Table 1. Effects of human-induced and natural hazards [15] Type Natural Meteorological Hurricane; Lightning; Heavy precipitation. Hydrological (caused by high rainfall) Replace, with, Flash flood; Landslide/volcanic ash/lava/ice; damming of a river; Tsunami. Volcanic Seismic Mass movement (of snow, ice, rock, soil mud, etc. ) (induced by slow-acting erosion or one of the above) Lava flows; Pyroclastic flows; Ash and block falls; Gases; Faulting; Transient shaking; Permanent deformation (e. g. folds); Induced movement (liquefaction and mass movement). Falls; Slumps; Slides; Flows. Human-induced Indirect/Secondary Flooding (coastal/rivers); Fire; Mass movement. Hydrological infra-structure failure (dams, levees, reservoirs, drainage systems); Coastal protection failure (sea walls). Disease; epidemic; Pollution. Mining-induced (e. g. mud volcano). Lahars (mudflows); Landslides; Tsunami; Fire. Dam-and-reservoir-induced mass movement; Mininginduced; Explosion/nuclear induced. Mass movement; Fire; Flood; Unstable mining/construction waste; Spoil heaps. Mehdi S. Kaddory Al-Zubaidy et al.
