|content= Simulating how maps are used by Disaster Recovery Agencies to support the rescue and recovery effort. Delivered as a workshop that supports both Edexcel and AQA Physical Geography modules entitled The Restless Earth, specifically the following key ideas: <br />• Earthquakes occur at constructive, destructive and conservative plate margins: features of earthquakes – epicentre, focus, shock waves. <br />• The effects of earthquakes and responses to them: primary and secondary effects; immediate and long term responses. <br />• Tsunamis are a specific secondary effect and can have devastating effects in coastal areas: a case study of a tsunami – its cause, effects and responses. | |content= Simulating how maps are used by Disaster Recovery Agencies to support the rescue and recovery effort.
