Answer: floods, forest fires, earthquakes

Step-by-step explanation:

The short term changes are those changes that affects the organisms immediately. The effect of these changes remain for short duration. Thus the environment and the living beings adapt the changes. A flood can wipe out the terrestrial ecosystem, the ecosystem will regain its original form when the water level depletes. Forest fires may kill several trees and animals in an ecosystem. But some plants and animals will sustain which can give birth to new colonies. The earthquakes affect the earth crust and biosphere. The earth crust may get stabilize again by filling up the crater and biosphere will also promote of living beings.
