I just turned this in and the answers are correct. I just wanted to pay you guys back for all the times you helped me out. Good luck on the written answers though idk how I did.
1. The farther away, several seismographs
2. Constructing
3. to see
4. Ground deformation, increase gas
5. Satellite
6. Most trees
7. They secure
8. Reduction of damaging
9. Daily satellite data
10. The fire
11 & 12 answer in your own words.
11. Retrofitting with straps was an answer up above. Talk more about that.
12. Remember your lesson and use your own words but here are some ideas. Remove or prune flammable plants and shrubs near windows. Remove vegetation and items that could catch fire from around and under decks, balconies and stairs. Create a separation between trees, shrubs and items that could catch fire, such as patio furniture, wood piles, swing sets, etc.

Which items include personal protective equipment (PPE) people would likely use to minimize the effects of a natural hazard?
- answer: respirators and face shields
Which statement best explains what people should do if a shelter-in-pace order is in effect as a result of a natural hazard?
- answer: People should remain inside and close all doors and windows.
Which structural damage could be expected if a Category 3 hurricane is predicted to hit an area?

11 ] In three to four sentences, explain how climate change could impact the formation of hurricanes.
[ My teacher hasn't graded this yet so idk if this is good ]
- my answer: If sea level temperatures rises, it could affect tropical storms and winds making them more dangerous l. Warm water can also affect hurricanes to be more intense and more dangerous. Warmer water also makes hurricanes form more frequently.
12 ] In 3–5 sentences, explain how meteorologists use weather data to predict the probability of a catastrophic wildfire.
[ My teacher hasn't graded this yet so idk if this is good ]
- my answer: Scientists can use data to predict if there will be a potential fire/drought. If there is heat, dry weather, vegetation then there's a chance a fire will occur. If there is dry weather, dry land, low precipitation, then it is most likely a drought since scientists can gather information on different types on weather, temperature, and humidity.

number 12: "in 3 to 5 sentences, explain how meteorologists use Weather data to predict the probability of a catastrophic wildfire."
meteorologist look at Weather data, like temperature, wind, speed, and humidity. The higher than temperatures, the more likely a wildfire is to catch. The more humid, the areas, the less likely a wildfire is to catch due to the moisture in the air. When can spread fire long distances easily so all of these are clearly very important to predicting a wildfire.

It is important for meteorologists to closely monitor these weather conditions and combine them with data on the dryness of vegetation and the presence of other fuel sources in order to make predictions about the probability of a catastrophic wildfire. By analyzing these factors and making predictions, meteorologists can provide important information to help prevent wildfires from occurring or mitigate their impact if they do occur.
