Volcanoes - Primary and Secondary Effects

We can split the effects of volcanoes into primary effects and secondary effects.

Primary effects

Primary effects

  • Primary effects happen during the natural disaster.
    • For example, for a volcanic eruption, primary effects would happen as a result of the volcano erupting lava, ash, rock, and gas.
Secondary effects

Secondary effects

  • Secondary effects happen later on because of the primary effects.
