Natural and Cultural Characteristics of an
Environment that make it vulnerable to E.N.E
BRAINSTORM
Natural:On the map it is evident that Christchurch is among the lower ground-shaking hazard areas.
These predictions were based on the distribution of active faults, how frequently faults have moved in the past, and the location of historic earthquakes.
This illustrates that even lower-hazard areas are vulnerable – as previous ruptures on the Greendale Fault do not seem to have occurred in the last 2,000 years.

Age of Buildings• Built in second half of the
19th century • February 22nd Earthquake,
destroyed the spire and part of the tower – and severely damaged the structure of the remaining building.
• The cathedral had been damaged previously by earthquakes in 1881, 1888, 1901 and 2010.
Historic City
• Settled in 1848
• Many of the city's Gothic Revival buildings date back to 1856
• Built from local materials (Stone)
• More than half of the listed heritage
buildings within Christchurch (more than
250) were in the Central City, along with a
large number of the city’s older buildings.
• As at 4 August 2011, about
80 listed heritage buildings have been
demolished within the Central City.

How to write an effective paragraph
• When writing an essay or answering an NCEA question you will use paragraphs.
