What are the geological hazards? Explain any two geological hazards in detail.

Geological hazards are natural phenomena that result from geological processes within the Earth's crust and surface. These hazards can cause significant damage to human life, infrastructure, and the environment. They occur due to movements of tectonic plates, volcanic activity, erosion, and other geological factors. Some common geological hazards include earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, tsunamis, and sinkholes.  

### Earthquakes  
Earthquakes are one of the most devastating geological hazards caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust. This release occurs due to the movement of tectonic plates along faults or fractures. The energy spreads in the form of seismic waves, causing the ground to shake. Earthquakes are measured using the Richter scale or the Moment Magnitude Scale (Mw), while the intensity of shaking is measured by the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale. _______ ________ ____ ____ ______ _____ ___ ________ __________ ___ ___ _______.
