Renewable Resources
Natural Hazards
Earthquakes
Volcanoes
Landslides
Tsunamis
Coastal
Erosion
Sea-Level
Rise
*When
stress is high
along a fault,
energy is
released
(earthquake)
*Rocks along
a fault move.
*Example:
San Andreas
Fault
(transform
boundary)
*Formation
along
convergent
boundary
(subduction
zone).
*Eruptions
due to
movement
along all
plate
boundaries
and hot
spots.
*Example:
Lassen Peak
*Due to
loose
sedimentary
rocks along
young, steep
mountains.
*Due to high
rainfall rates
*Examples:
Malibu and
La Conchita
*Due to
large
earthquakes
and/or
volcanic
eruptions in
the ocean
resulting in a
large wave.
*Example:
1964 Alaska
Earthquake
*Sea cliff
erosion due
to high
coastal wave
impact
resulting in
an uneven
coastline.
*Coastal
roads and
structures
are also
affected.
*Example:
Malibu
*Due to
melting of
the glaciers,
the level of
the sea rises
resulting in
flooding of
California
coastline
cities.
*Examples:
Sunset
Beach and
San
Francisco
Bay
Nonrenewable Resources
Definition: Natural resources that cannot be
replaced or replenished in our lifetime
Oil
Natural Gas
Coal
*Highly abundant
resource but consumed
quickly.
*Have to drill and dig
within oil fields.
*Along with natural gas,
provides 78% of all
energy used in
California.
*Use is harmful to
environment.
*Highly abundant
resource but consumed
quickly.
*Have to drill to get
natural gas.
*Along with oil,
provides 78% of all
energy used in
California.
*Use is harmful to
environment.
*Fuel that is burned to
provide energy for
California factories and
industries.
*Mined out of state but
highly used in
California.
*Use is harmful to
environment.
Renewable Resources
Definition: Natural resources that can be
replaced or replenished within our lifetime
Geothermal
Energy
Hydroelectric
Energy
*Energy that is
generated by the
heat of the Earth’s
interior.
*Wells or turbines
are used to extract
and generate energy
from the steam.
*Usage is not
harmful to the
environment.
*Example: Geysers
(largest geothermal
field in San
Francisco)
*Energy that is
generated by
water.
*Water is passed
through turbines
to generate
energy.
*Usage is not
harmful to the
environment.
*Example: Shasta
Dam
Solar Energy
Wind Energy
*Energy that is
generated by the
sun’s radiation.
*Sun’s radiation is
captured by solar
panels.
*Usage is not
harmful to the
environment.
*Example: Mojave
Desert (solar electric
generating plant that
supplies energy to
the Los Angeles
area)
*Energy that is
generated by winds
(Westerlies of
California).
*Windmills and
wind turbines
capture the energy
generated by the
winds.
*Usage is not
harmful to the
environment.
*Example: Palm
Springs
