Natural disasters include droughts, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, landslides, volcanic eruptions, and avalanches. Droughts occur when a region receives insufficient rainfall over an extended period of time. Earthquakes happen when tectonic plates shift beneath the earth's surface, sometimes causing significant damage. Floods result from heavy rainfall or coastal storms that cause rivers and streams to overflow their banks.
