The Challenges of Natural Hazards (Unit)

A complete Year 10 AQA GCSE Geography unit covering The Challenge of Natural Hazards in depth. This fully resourced scheme explores the nature and distribution of tectonic hazards, types of plate boundary, the effects and responses to earthquakes, and strategies for managing tectonic risk. Students then study atmospheric hazards, including global atmospheric circulation, the formation of tropical storms, Typhoon Haiyan, and UK weather hazards. The unit concludes with a robust climate change section examining evidence, natural and human causes, and mitigation and adaptation strategies. Includes case studies, exam-style questions, revision materials and an end-of-unit assessment—everything needed to teach the full AQA specification with clarity and confidence.
