Q

EARTHQUAKE HAZARD
process that transform the behavior of a body of sediment from that of a solid to that of a liquid.

22
Q

EARTHQUAKE HAZARD
process that transform the behavior of a body of sediment from that of a solid to that of a liquid.

23
Q

EARTHQUAKE HAZARD

A large mass of rocks and earth that suddenly and quickly moves down the side of a mountain hill.
Caused by heavy rains.
Over-steeped slopes created by erosion.

A

EARTHQUKAE INDUCED LANDSLIDE

24
Q

Harbor Wave” or “Seismic Sea
Wave”. Mostly refer to a tidal wave. The earthquake which originates under the ocean and can cause great destruction when it reaches the land.

31
-Violent shaking of the ground produce by sudden movement of the rock materials below the earth surtace.
EARTHQUAKE
32
TYPES OF NATURAL EARTHQUAKES Produced by sudden movement along faults and plate boundaries.
TECTONIC
33
TYPES OR NATURAL EARTHQUAKES Produced by movement of magma beneath volcanoes.
VOLCANIC
34
the agency mandated to monitor earthquake in the Philippines
PIVOLCS(PHILIPPINE INSTITUTE OF VOLCANOLOGY AND SEISMOLOGY)
35
VOLCANIC HAZARDS is an Indonesian term that describes a hot or cold mixture of water and rock fragments flowing down the slopes of a volcano and river valleys.
LAHAR
36
VOLCANIC HAZARDS is a rain of airborne ash resulting from a volcanic eruption. It can have serious detrimental effects on agricultural crops and livestock depending mainly on ash thickness, the type and growing condition of a crop, the presence of soluble flouride on the ash, and timing and intensity of subsequent rainfall.
ASH FALL
37
VOLCANIC HAZARDS are heavier-than-air gas-particle emulsions that across the ground at velocities ranging from 10 m/sec to 300 m/sec They can attain temperatures of over 1000 C.
PYROCLASTIC FLOW
38
VOLCANIC HAZARD are rocks that an erupting volcano may hurl into the air. These blocks and bombs travel like cannon balls and usually land within 2km of the vent (but can travel as far as 5km, or even further, if the eruption is very explosive.)
BALLISTIC PROJECTILES
39
VOLCANIC HAZARDS Sulfur compounds, chlorine and fluorine react with water to form poisonous acids damaging to the eyes, skin and respiratory systems of animals even in very small concentrations.
VOLCANIC GASES
40
VOLCANIC HAZARD It rarely threaten human life because lava usually moves slowly-a few centimeters a few centimeters per hour.
LAVA FLOW
41
They are located in the zones of the earth's crust where one tectonic plate is thrust and consumed beneath another.
SUBDUCTION VOLCANOES
42
It occur where tectonic plates diverge, effusive especially when they occur on the deep, ocean floor
RIFT VOLCANOES
43
It exist in the middle of tectonic plates where a crustal weakness allows molten material to penetrate from the earth's interior.
HOT SPOT VOLCANOES
44
is a ground movement on a sloping terrain. It does not happen on flat ground because of the angle on the ground, gravity induces the land to move downward.
LANDSLIDE
45
is a very slow downslope slope covered with movement of particles that occurs in every loose, weathered material (Britannica dictionary).
SOIL CREEP LANDSLIDE
46
- is a downward movement of rock debris, usually the consequence of removal of buttressing earth at the foot of a slope of unconsolidated material (Britannica dictionary).
SLUMPING LANDSLIDE
47
happens when the slope becomes saturated with water, this then triggers a landslide of water-soaked mass of rock and soil that slides down the slope.
DEBRIS FLOW LANDSLIDE
48
are sudden slides caused by heavy rain the rock on the slope loosens and then slides down the slope.
ROCK FALL LANDSLIDE
49
is a topographic depression created when groundwater dissolves the underlying limestone bedrock. Often known as "sink" or "doline,".
