The second ones are the disaster experiences of the agrometerology and the geographical locations. And no relevance occurs with regard to ages and educations of the farmers/fishmen. 5.Among the causes influencing the meteorological disaster preventions, the types of agriculture managements, the geographical locations and the frequency of the information exploitation are the chief ones;and the degree of urbanization,the contact frequency of the mass media present no effect. 6.Of the attitude rooted in farmers/fishmen in preventions against varied kinds of meteorological disasters,the differences in emotion dimension rate the most;the behavior tendency dimension the second,and the recognition component differences the minor one.
