PHIVOLCS Intensity Scale
PHIVOLCS
A type of fault is characterized by rocks on one side moving upward relative to rocks on the other side.
Normal fault
Strike-Slip fault
Is a common method for measuring the magnitude of an earthquake.
A fault that is primarily associated with horizontal motion along a fault line.
An unusual rise of water along the seashore caused by a storm or a combination of wind and high tide.
(a)
A massive ocean wave caused by underwater seismic activity.
Series of ocean waves with extremely long wavelengths and high energy, often caused by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides
(a)
Draw the formation of a Tropical Cyclone.
First step of the Formation of a Tropical Cyclone.
Winds coming together force air upward.
Humid air rising makes clouds of the storm.
Warm ocean provides energy for the hurricane and causes more evaporation making humid air and clouds.
Wind flow outward above the storm, allowing the air below to rise.
Light winds outside the hurricane and steer it and let it grow.
Second step of the Formation of a Tropical Cyclone.
Wind flow outward above the storm, allowing the air below to rise.
Winds coming together force air upward.
Warm ocean provides energy for the hurricane and causes more evaporation making humid air and clouds.
Light winds outside the hurricane and steer it and let it grow.
Humid air rising makes clouds of the storm.
Third step of the Formation of a Tropical Cyclone.
Humid air rising makes clouds of the storm.
Warm ocean provides energy for the hurricane and causes more evaporation making humid air and clouds.
Humid air rising makes clouds of the storm.
Wind flow outward above the storm, allowing the air below to rise.
Light winds outside the hurricane and steer it and let it grow.
Fourth step of the Formation of a Tropical Cyclone.
Wind flow outward above the storm, allowing the air below to rise.
Light winds outside the hurricane and steer it and let it grow.
Warm ocean provides energy for the hurricane and causes more evaporation making humid air and clouds.
Winds coming together force air upward.
Humid air rising makes clouds of the storm.
Last step of the Formation of a Tropical Cyclone.
Winds coming together force air upward.
Warm ocean provides energy for the hurricane and causes more evaporation making humid air and clouds.
Humid air rising makes clouds of the storm.
Wind flow outward above the storm, allowing the air below to rise.
Light winds outside the hurricane and steer it and let it grow.
Draw waves. (P and S waves)
