Case-Study Revision IAX10-0027 - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Between 30 May and 2 June, rainfall reached 250mm
      - Flood levels exceeded the floods of 2002
    - - water is running over the surface, so it gets into river very quickly (2013)
- - - - Has been important to Egypt for the past 2000 years
    - - locals benefit profit by providing services for tourists
    - - provides 60% of Egypt's food supply
      - Over 2/3 of the 80 million pop. live here
    - - However, it reduced the opportunity to deposit nutrients on the flood plain
      - The HEP produced 1/2 of Egypt's electricity
    - - Most of the population live along the Nile or on the delta
- - - - Fertile soils from volcanic ash
        
        responsible for growing coffee, rice, chili, cocoa
      - Volcanic heat can provide geothermal energy
        
        It can also generate electricity naturally
      - Cool magma releases volcanic minerals
        
        These are carried in hot water and can form gold, silver, copper, iron
      - Volcanic tourism: residents can earn money as a guide and selling volcanic souvenirs
- - - - North American plate moved westwards and Caribbean plate moved eastwards
      - Pressure is created when the two plates move in opposite directions which creates friction
      - When the plates get ‘stuck’ more pressure builds up creating a jolt which triggers seismic waves, which creates an earthquake.
    - - shallow shock waves caused the ground to shake very violently
