Omtale
Earthquakes, wildfires, and floods, oh my! The headlines are full of disasters and epidemics more than ever. Scientists use climate models to project a growing number, frequency, and intensity of natural disasters. Meanwhile, engineers, meteorologists, and other scientists design mathematical models to help them try to stay one step ahead by predicting when and where natural disasters might occur. Life-saving knowledge like this can warn people to evacuate the region before disaster strikes. This pivotal set enables readers to explore the various solutions engineers use or are creating today to prepare for disasters and epidemics and prevent catastrophe from happening. Features include: Blends actual STEM principles for mitigating the effects of natural hazards with the science relating to the causes, predictions, and preparedness for these natural disasters. Complements the mandates of the Next Generation Science Standards, such as designing and optimizing engineering solutions and understanding human impact on Earth and the natural world, including the cutting-edge science behind disaster assessment and its prevention. Includes discussion of today's thinking about engineering and how natural disasters continue to impact lives, property, ecosystems, and world economies.
