Summary/Abstract: Initially, it was assumed that the impacts of different types of crises are very diverse, and they become apparent both in the behaviour of individual elements of geographic space (natural, social, economic, and cultural) and different scales of spatial systems (from the global and continental scale to the scale of country groups and individual states to regional and local systems). Against this background, the present paper outlines and analyses the origins and intensification of the contemporary climate, pandemic, and military crises. The crises have different origins, appearing under the influence of evolutionary processes of natural changes (climate crisis), as a result of violent events occurring under the influence of violent natural phenomena (tectonic movements), and conscious or unconscious human activity. Analysing the crises at different scales of spatial systems suggests they do not function independently but instead mutually overlap in terms of both their causes and effects. In the final section of the paper, an attempt is made to model the interrelationship of crisis phenomena and identify them through an example of population migration processes taking place under their influence.
