Natural
Hazards
how some natural hazards, such as volcanic eruptions and
severe weather, are preceded by phenomena that allow for
reliable predictions, but others, such as earthquakes, occur
suddenly and with no notice, and thus are not yet
predictable. Examples of natural hazards can be taken from
interior processes (such as earthquakes and volcanic
eruptions), surface processes (such as mass wasting and
tsunamis), or severe weather events (such as hurricanes,
tornadoes, and floods). Examples of data can include the
locations, magnitudes, and frequencies of the natural
hazards. Examples of technologies can be global (such as
satellite systems to monitor hurricanes or forest fires) or
local (such as building basements in tornado-prone regions
or reservoirs to mitigate droughts).]

energy, and groundwater resources are the
result of past and current geoscience
processes. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on how
these resources are limited and typically non-renewable, and
how their distributions are significantly changing as a result of
removal by humans. Examples of uneven distributions of
resources as a result of past processes include but are not
limited to petroleum (locations of the burial of organic marine
sediments and subsequent geologic traps), metal ores
(locations of past volcanic and hydrothermal activity associated
with subduction zones), and soil (locations of active weathering
and/or deposition of rock).]

Human
Impacts on

Systems
MS-ESS3-3. Apply scientific principles to
design a method for monitoring and
minimizing a human impact on the
environment.* [Clarification Statement: Examples of
the design process include examining human environmental
impacts, assessing the kinds of solutions that are feasible,
and designing and evaluating solutions that could reduce
that impact. Examples of human impacts can include water
usage (such as the withdrawal of water from streams and
aquifers or the construction of dams and levees), land
usage (such as urban development, agriculture, or the
removal of wetlands), and pollution (such as of the air,
water, or land).]
MS-ESS3-4. Construct an argument
supported by evidence for how increases
in human population and per-capita
consumption of natural resources impact
Earth’s systems. [Clarification Statement: Examples
of evidence include grade-appropriate databases on human
populations and the rates of consumption of food and
natural resources (such as freshwater, mineral, and
energy). Examples of impacts can include changes to the
appearance, composition, and structure of Earth’s systems
as well as the rates at which they change. The
consequences of increases in human populations and
consumption of natural resources are described by science,
but science does not make the decisions for the actions
society takes.]

MS-ETS1-2. Evaluate competing design
solutions using a systematic process to
determine how well they meet the criteria
and constraints of the problem.
MS-ETS1-3. Analyze data from tests to
determine similarities and differences
among several design solutions to identify
the best characteristics of each that can be
combined into a new solution to better
meet the criteria for success.
MS-ETS1-4. Develop a model to generate
data for iterative testing and modification
of a proposed object, tool, or process such
that an optimal design can be achieved.

-define the criteria and
constraints of a design
problem with sufficient
precision to ensure a
successful solution,
taking into account
relevant scientific
principles and potential
impacts on people and
the natural environment
that may limit possible
solutions.
