Question

if sudden event only destroys the properties do we still called it a disaster?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A natural event only becomes a disaster when it impacts human life, property, or livelihood. The greater the number of vulnerable populations living in an at-risk area, the more likely an event will be categorized as a catastrophe.

Answer:

Geophysical (e.g. Earthquakes, Landslides, Tsunamis and Volcanic Activity)

Hydrological (e.g. Avalanches and Floods)

Climatological (e.g. Extreme Temperatures, Drought and Wildfires)

Meteorological (e.g. Cyclones and Storms/Wave Surges)
