. In terms of the number of lives lost most people who die as a result of natural disasters are in LEDcs. As far as economic impact is concerned LEDC infrastructure road electricity airports gas supply is often of poorer quality and can easily be damaged and destroyed in natural disasters. Up to 24 cash back MEDCs are much better at preventing and preparing themselves for cyclones than LEDCs because of the amount of wealth education and technology resources that can come from themselves or the government.

In addition natural disasters can be traumatic for people. There are two key issues here. On the other hand in MEDCS the infrastructure also affected by.

MEDCs also rely on the government whereas LEDCs rely on aid and charity organisations. Complete the table below using the case studies you have investigated for BOTH volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. MEDC means more economically developed country and it copes with natural disasters better than LEDC less economically developed country because they have more amount of money.

Natural disasters have always disastrous effects. As MEDCs have more money to spend on prediction methods it is expected there to be less deaths and damage in MEDCs than in LEDCs. It may also be that although MEDCs are more able to cope with natural disasters than LEDCs this ability is not uniform.

Over 50 of trade takes place between MEDC countries for example the trading of cars to. Obviously if a disaster or an earthquake in this case occurs somewhere densely populated rather an isolated area it will have a greater impact as life could be lost buildings destroyed and as a result high. In addition poorer people may have to risk living in disaster-prone areas where land is cheap in order to make a livign.

Due to their location many LEDCs experience more natural disasters than MEDCs due to their poverty the impacts of these natural disasters is greater than similar one in MEDCs would be. Were going to explore these through the. How far do you agree with this statement.

This is due to a number of. MEDCs export a greater number and range of secondary products. Up to 24 cash back An example of an LEDCs earthquake is The Great Chilean Earthquake which occured on May 22 1960 near Valdivia in Southern Chile and was assigned with a magnitude of 95.

Up to 24 cash back Comparing the effects of natural disasters on MEDCs and LEDCs. Natural hazards will affect More Economically Developed Countries MEDCsin a differing way to those that occur in Less Economically Developed CountriesLEDCs. Holmes Institute Pathways Applied Business Statistics for Managers Holmes Institute Holmes Institute Natural disasters have a greater impact on LEDCs than MEDCs in a number of different ways.

Natural disasters have a greater impact on less economically developed countries LEDCs than more developed countries MEDCs. SoIt is one of the greatest reason why many people consider natural disasters to have greater impact in LEDCS than in MEDCS. These are often manufactured goods which are made from primary products from LEDCs.

Any disaster either caused by humans or Mother Nature will make an impact but this depends where it hits. See answer 1 Best Answer. In terms of the number of lives lost most people who die as a result of natural disasters are in LEDCs.

Natural disasters have a greater impact on LEDCs than MEDCs in a number of different ways. LEDCs often have to rely on aid from overseas as their health system which is inadequate. These could be economic social andor environmental.

To compare the effects of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes of TWO places you have studied. For example the earthquake in. Why is the impact of tectonic hazards is greater in ledc than medc.

Often suffer more from the effects of volcanoes and earthquakes than MEDCs. SoIt is one of the greatest reason why many people consider natural disasters to have greater impact in LEDCS than in MEDCS. As far as economic impact is concerned LEDC infrastructure road electricity.

In addition poorer people may have to risk living in disaster-prone areas where land. Confronted with scenes of destruction and the deaths of friends and loved ones many people have been so deeply hurt may take forever for the wounds to heal. International study for disaster reduction 2010 between 1991 and 2005 630000 people are killed by natural disasters in LEDCS compered with 72000 in MEDCS.

Tectonic hazards are potential disasters caused by the shifting of the earths plates the two. Generally in some respects natural disasters may have a greater impact on MEDCs. For example higher levels of infrastructure can be found in MEDCs which is costly to mend if damage occurs Wills 2009 cited in CAE 2012.

Why are earthquake impacts different in LEDCs and MEDCs.
