What is Extreme Earth about?

Earth is a powerful and sometimes unpredictable planet. Explore what happens beneath the ground and in the atmosphere as earthquakes shake cities, volcanoes erupt, avalanches thunder downhill and tsunamis sweep across the sea. Discover how floods, droughts, forest fires and ice storms transform landscapes, and find out what makes hurricanes and tornadoes so dangerous. Clear explanations, panoramic illustrations and colourful infographics reveal the science behind these extreme events and show how they shape the world around us.
