Described by the statement:
“I felt the ground shaking. Books were falling from the shelves. I felt dizzy.”
Magnitude
Intensity
The word/s that describes VULNERABILITY in the statement:
“In December last year, the Philippines was struck by two back-to-back earthquakes in two days. A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck off the coast of the southern Philippines on 4th December 2023. Earthquakes occur frequently in the Philippines, which is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, a seismically active region. ”

The DISASTER RISK COMPONENT that is described as robust in the statement
“Homes and infrastructure have been significantly damaged, and a huge number of buildings were destroyed. The Philippines, home to a large number of rural areas, is generally ill-equipped to deal with such natural catastrophes, contrarily to some countries – such as Japan – which have developed a “robust building code requiring all buildings to be built to withstand earthquakes.”

The magnitude and intensity of volcanic eruptions are measured using this logarithmic scale

Mt. Mayon, with its picture-perfect cone shape, is the result of alternating layers of lava from different eruptions through the years. It has a slope of less than 33 degrees and a height of 2km making it this type of volcano.

Volcanoes that erupted within the last 10,000 years are classified as active while those that have not erupted in this time are (a) .
Slides are more likely to happen when rock layers are ________ to the slope.
parallel
perpendicular
The slowest type of mass movement consisting only of small and gradual shifting due to daily hot and cold cycles
(a)
Landslide hazards can occur with other geological hazards such as hydrometeorological hazards
True

The effect on disaster risk when the residents at house on the base of a slope was evacuated upon noticing the early warning signs

Boracay Island, one of the world's top island destinations, is entirely (a) . Its chemical composition, which is calcium carbonate, gradually melts when it comes in contact with acid, especially acid rain.
A coping capacity for sinkhole hazards would be to evacuate a large number of residents in an open field directly above an underground cavity.
True
False
The TYPE OF HAZARD described in the following statement:
“Magarzo said a sinkhole is the most dangerous type of hazard because it has no indication of when it will appear. Once there is no support underneath, it will just collapse along with any structures standing in the affected area, she added. She said the agency has recommended lessening the weight of the structures that stand on the limestone, especially for one-story building.”

Staff Sgt. Allan Vertucio, investigator at the Danao City Police Station, said Papaya and her husband were feeding their pig but then the earth suddenly opened up and swallowed the victim along with their pig and their house.

The DISASTER RISK COMPONENT described by “farm” in the statement:
“The Mines and Geosciences Bureau – Central Visayas has confirmed a sinkhole formation in an agricultural land in the Bugas, Badian town, southwest of Cebu.
A section of a farm in sitio Purok 2 recently collapsed into a sinkhole.”

The DISASTER RISK COMPONENT described by the statement:
“In 2013, the Phivolcs released different comics based on real stories of Filipino survivors of the 2011 Sendai earthquake. These were written in Filipino.
But while these projects can really be helpful to Filipinos, Solidum has always emphasized the importance of community-based preparedness, especially during locally generated tsunamis.
The locals, he said, should rely not only on warnings and advice but also on their own observations.”
