The geomorphological hazard I chose was a bush fire. A geomorphological hazard is a scientific way to say natural disaster. A geomorphological hazard is a natural disaster that we cannot avoid. Geomorphological hazards can occur at any time of the year, but some, like bush fires, mainly happen in summer. A geomorphological hazard has a big impact on what the world looks like because of the changes that occur as a result of it. Some examples of this is when a bush fire comes through it makes the land go all black and burnt and when the bush grows back the undergrowth is very thick and hard to walk through. If the fire has been hot enough, even the topsoil gets burnt so the grass doesn't grow back properly for a number of years.
Some examples of a geomorphological hazard are: Tornado, earthquake, tsunami, cyclone, volcano, sink holes, landslides and many other things. The one I have chosen to talk to you about is the 2009 Victorian bush fires, otherwise known as "Black Saturday". Black Saturday was a very bad fire that happened in Victoria, Australia.
How the geomorphological hazard of bush fires can occur is maybe when someone gets drunk and he litters by leaving his beer bottle in the grass and then one hot day the sun shines through the bottle and the heat sets one thing on fire and next thing you know you have a bush fire.
