BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Our planet is shaped by several processes. There are forces responsible for these
process. These actions happen for important reasons. It affects every lives of every living
matter and existence of non-living matter. These forces collectively originate from beyond the
earth.
There are a lot and different threats in our lives. The year 2020 is very challenging for
almost every one of us as we confront different threats in our lives such as the pandemic of
COVID-19, typhoon Ambo which severely damaged some provinces in the south last
February and the continuous threats of Taal Volcano eruption since January which caused
damages to lives and properties in Batangas and other nearby provinces. People felt distress
because they experienced a strong tremble and aftershocks after a major eruption of the
volcano.
Aside from these, one of the most feared threat is the coming of the “BIG ONE” or the
magnitude 8.0 earthquake that may happen with the movement of the West Valley Fault.

As a student what will you do in case a great earthquake suddenly occurs and you are inside
the classroom? inside your house? or outside the streets?
Earthquake is just one of the geologic processes that happens on Earth like landslides
and volcanic eruptions. These geologic processes may cause “threats” in our lives through
the potential hazards it can cause. You will know more about the different geologic processes
and hazards as you proceed on this module.
Note: You can perform the following activities through collaborating with a partner online. You
can first answer the activities individually then just communicate your results after.
ACTIVITIES
Activity 1.1: How Safe is Our House?
Objectives:
• Evaluate the integrity of the house and its vulnerability to strong earthquakes.
• Realize how to create the house more resilient from strong earthquakes.
Introduction:
This earthquake disaster awareness material was prepared by Philippine Institute of

Volcanology and Seismology of the Department of Science and Technology in collaboration with
the Association of Structural Engineers of the Philippines (ASEP) under the Japan International
Cooperation Agency (JICA) – Japan Science and Technology (JST) Project.
Directions: Answer the 12-items survey below. Sum up your points and evaluate how safe
your house is. Write your answers in your answer sheet.

Guide Questions:
1. How safe is your house based on the self-check survey? Explain the results of your score.
2. Do you think your house is resilient to strong earthquake? Why? Why not? Explain your
answer.
3. If you have a chance, how will you remodel your house to become earthquake resilient?
Activity 2: Geologic Hotspots

Introduction:
Hotspots or hot spots has two different meanings. In
geology, a hotspot is a location on the Earth's surface
that has experienced active volcanism (a geologic
activity like earthquake and landslide) for a long
period of time. Meanwhile in technology, hotspot is a
physical location where people have Internet access
using a router connected to an Internet service
provider. In this activity, you will be encountering two
hotspots because you will be learning more about the
different geologic hazards using the internet.

REMEMBER
Here’s the key concepts that you must remember on the different geologic processes and hazards.
Geologic Hazards are hazards that happen due to natural processes coming from the activities on
or beneath the Earth’s surface.
Types of Geologic Hazards:
I. Earthquake - is a weak to violent shaking of the ground produced by the sudden

movement of rock materials below the earth’s surface. (see picture of the last page)

II. Landslides - is the mass movement of rock, soil, and debris down a slope due to gravity. It
occurs when the driving force is greater than the resisting force. Landslide materials may
include soil, debris, rock and garbage.
a. Landslide triggered
 Intense rainfall
 Natural triggers
 Weathering of rocks
 Ground vibrations created during earthquakes
 Volcanic activity
 Man-mad triggers
b. Landslide triggering conditions

 Steep slopes
 Weathering of rocks
 Overloading on the slope
 Weakening of the slope
c. Modes of Failure—movement of landslide that may occure in: fall, topple, slide,
spread, flow.
III. Volcanic Eruptions---when lava, tephra (ash, lapilli, volcanic bombs and volcanic
blocks), and assorted gases are expelled from a volcanic vent or fissure of a volcano.

Directions: Write TRUE if the underlined word/s is/are correct, write FALSE if the
underlined word/s is/are wrong and indicate the correct answer.
1. Some factors like topography, bedrock type, location and orientation of the fault rupture
result to varying level of ground shaking.
2. The aftermath of liquefaction can leave large areas covered in a deep layer of mud.
3. Vertical spreading occurs where sloping ground starts to move downhill, causing cracks
to open up, and are often seen along hill crests and river banks.
4. Earthquake, also known as tremor is defined as any sudden shaking of the ground
caused by the passage of seismic waves through earth’s rocks.
5. Landslides are long wavelength oceanic waves produced by the sudden movement of
seawater by a shallow earthquake, volcanic eruption or submarine landslide.

Article 1.
There are more than 1500 active volcanoes on
Earth. Around 50-70 volcanoes erupt every
year. There are 82 volcanoes in Europe, 32 of
these are in Iceland, one of the UK’s closest
‘volcanic neighbours’. Most of the volcanoes
on Earth are not well-monitored or even
monitored at all. Some volcanoes erupt almost
continuously (e.g. Etna and Stromboli) but
some don’t erupt for tens, hundreds or even
thousands of years.

locations around the world. This research
helps governments and local people to:
 understand the signals which indicate that an eruption will happen soon
 understand different volcanoes personalities and behaviour
 understand the potential hazard posed by volcanoes
 work with communities living near volcanoes, and also further afield, to try and
reduce risk from volcanic eruptions
 understand how best to take advantage of volcanic systems; e.g. geothermal energy
The BGS volcanology team work with government agencies to provide support and scientific
advice not only during volcanic unrest or ‘changes from a volcano’s normal state’, but also
in preparation for potential future activity.

LOOKING BACK TO YOUR LESSON
Ever since you started schooling from elementary to high school, you have heard
from the news and have seen in your own television set the various hazards that happened
in our country particularly earthquakes, earthquake-induced landslides and volcanic
eruptions. As a matter of fact, we can’t deny that these hazards were felt lately in the
different places in the Philippines. To recall some important terms related to this lesson
let’s try Cryptogram to unlock the following words being described.

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
A. Tremors to Remember!
Did you know that since 1968, PHIVOLCS have recorded 12 destructive earthquakes
in the Philippines? This includes the disreputable July 16,1990 Luzon earthquake which
caused immeasurable injuries and no less than 1,100 deaths. Seismicity, the occurrence or
frequency of earthquakes includes geographic and historical distribution of earthquake
events all over the country except in the Palawan region. Provinces such as La Union and
Pangasinan are susceptible to earthquakes, especially the deep-focused ones, due to the
Manila Trench while Surigao del Sur and Davao Oriental have earthquake hazards due to
Philippine Trench and nearby active faults. Frequency of shallow and left-lateral strike-slip
earthquakes in Nueva Vizcaya, Nueva Ecija, Eastern Pangasinan, Benguet and La Union
can be attributed to its location along the Philippine Fault Zone. However, Ifugao, despite
having less earthquake occurrences is at risk because of its very high vulnerability to
disasters.
What parts of the Philippine geographical map are prone to earthquakes?
1 Surigao Del Sur
2. La Union
3. Benguet
4. Pangasinan
5. Pampanga
6. Tarlac
7. Ifugao
8. Davao Oriental
9. Nueva Vizcaya
10. Nueva Ecija

B. Deadly Explosions…Boom!!!
A volcanic eruption can be described
to a similar process that happens when you
unscrew the lid of a soft-drink bottle. The
pressurized drink represents the gas-rich
magma with carbon dioxide dissolved in the
liquid. Opening the lid (possibly after
shaking) releases the pressure and the
bubbles immediately expand and may push
up through the neck of the bottle. The
release of this great pressure causes
volcanic explosions, such as the major
catastrophic eruption of Krakatau in 1883.
Are you familiar with the “Ring of Fire”?

What is it? The Philippines lies within the
“Ring of Fire”, a region of subduction zone
volcanism surrounding the Pacific Ocean,
this explains the distribution of most
volcanoes in our country. Indeed, volcanoes
are classified as active, inactive and
potentially active. Twenty-two (22)
historically active volcanoes are distributed
all over the archipelago. One of the most
violent eruptions in the last two decades is
Mt. Pinatubo which is observed to be
inactive for several years. Another volcanic
eruption that happened last January 2020
is Mt. Taal which severely damaged the
province of Batangas and nearby places.
From the geographical map, Camiguin has
the highest risk because the land area is so
small.
Eruption can affect the whole

province. Sulu ranked second because it
has numerous active and potentially active
volcanoes. Hence, the top ten provinces at
risk for deadly volcanic eruptions are:
1. Camiguin
2. Sulu
3. Biliran
4. Albay
5. Bataan
6. Sorsogon
7. South Cotabato
8. Laguna
9. Camarines Sur
10. Batanes

Page
C. Danger, Big Rocks Falling!!!
What is known to be the deadliest landslides that happened in the Philippines? On February
17, 2006, a massive rock slide-debris avalanche occurred in the province of Southern Leyte,
causing widespread damage and loss of life. The deadly landslide (or debris flow) followed a
10-day period of heavy rain and a minor earthquake (magnitude 2.6 on the Richter scale).
There are other provinces like Ifugao, Lanao del Sur and Saranggani ranked high because of
their high vulnerability to disasters while Rizal
ranked the lowest. Benguet, despite its low
vulnerability, ranked four because of its high
exposure factor or population density. Aurora
ranked higher than Davao del Sur and Davao
Oriental despite its low vulnerability
compared with the other two provinces. This
is due to the fact that the whole of Aurora is
more susceptible to landslide than the other
two provinces. Most of the provinces, except
Palawan, are susceptible to landslide hazards.
From the map below, the top ten provinces
that are at risk to earthquake-induced shallow
landslides are as follows:
1. Ifugao
2. Lanao Del Sur
3. Saranggani
4. Benguet
5. Mountain Province
6. Bukidnon
7. Aurora
8. Davao del Sur
9. Davao Oriental
10. Rizal

REMEMBER
An earthquake is a result of sudden movement of the earth's tectonic plates, which
causes shaking of the ground. Thus, shaking can damage various structures such as
buildings and further breakdown of the earth's surface. The study of earthquakes is
called seismology.
The Philippines is susceptible to earthquakes, due to the following factors:
a. Deep-focused ones, due to the Manila Trench

b. Philippine Trench and nearby active faults.
c. Frequency of shallow and left-lateral strike-slip.
Philippines lies within the “Ring of Fire,” a region of subduction zone volcanism
surrounding the Pacific Ocean, and this explains the distribution of most volcanoes in
our country.
Landslide is described as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a
slope. It’s a type of "mass wasting," which denotes any down-slope movement of soil
and rock under the direct influence of gravity.
A geological hazard map indicates the areas that are vulnerable to hazards caused by
earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides. It is a tool used by scientists and local
government authorities to anticipate any hazard that a geological event may bring.

Simple Think, Pair and Share
In Google classroom, learners may pair with a classmate
they just met and answer in the stream the questions below:
1. Have a short exchange of students’ experiences with

the recent landslide they know.
2. Determine from the class what they learned about
landslides and their corresponding hazards.
3. Ask them how do humans contribute to the
occurrence of landslides and in what way.
BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Natural hazards are naturally occurring physical
phenomena caused either by rapid or slow onset
events which can be geophysical (earthquakes,
landslides, tsunamis and volcanic activity),
hydrological (avalanches and floods), climatological
(extreme temperatures, drought and wildfires),
meteorological (cyclones and storms/wave surges) or
biological (disease epidemics and insect/animal
plagues). Technological or man-made hazards
(complex emergencies/conflicts, famine, displaced
populations, industrial accidents and transport
accidents) are events that are caused by humans and
occur in or close to human settlements. This can
include environmental degradation, pollution and
accidents. Technological or man-made hazards
(complex emergencies/conflicts, famine, displaced populations, industrial accidents and transport
accidents)
Biological hazard
Biological hazards include outbreaks of epidemic diseases, plant or animal contagion,
insect or other animal plagues and infestations.
Geological hazard
Geological hazards include internal earth processes, such as earthquakes, volcanic activity
and emissions, and related geophysical processes such as mass movements, landslides,
rockslides, surface collapses, and debris or mudflows.
Hydro meteorological factors are important contributors to some of these processes.

Tsunamis are difficult to categorize; although they are triggered by undersea earthquakes
and other geological events, they are essentially an oceanic process that is manifested as a
coastal water-related hazard.
Hydro meteorological hazard

Hydro meteorological hazards include tropical cyclones (also known as typhoons and
hurricanes), thunderstorms, hailstorms, tornados, blizzards, heavy snowfall, avalanches,
coastal storm surges, floods including flash floods, drought, heatwaves and cold spells.
ACTIVITIES
Note: You can perform the following activities through collaborating with a partner through online. You
28
can first answer the activities individually then just communicate your results after.

Activity 1.1: Identifying Impacts of Hazards
This activity is meant for the learners to think
independently and have their quick analysis
on the impacts of certain hazards according to the
following factors.
List of suggested factors:
A. Family in concrete house near the highway far

from river and mountain
B. Mountain climbers going up the slope
C. Exchange learners in a local family home
in the barrio near the river
D. Friends in a beach resort

Activity 1.2: Anatomy of Landslide
Offline asynchronous activity:
If they so choose, they can meet via zoom or messenger to discuss the guide question and
prepare one creative PowerPoint presentation.
Divide the class into 3 groups. For each group, learners should identify 1 Facilitator to lead
the discussion, 1 person to act as Secretary to write the final answers, another person as
Reporter to discuss the results of group discussion. All learners should write the identified
impacts on the metacards (will be discussed online by the subject teacher). And there
should be group discussion.
Good luck!
Discussion Guide Question:
1) What activities of man that may lead to landslide?

REMEMBER
There are natural hazards that can result into landslide. There are also man made hazards that can
affect geologic processes and result into landslide.
• Ground shaking- disruptive up-down and sideways movement or motion experienced during
an earthquake.
• Ground rupture- displacement on the ground due to movement of fault.
29
• Earthquake-induced landslide- failures in steep or hilly slopes triggered by an earthquake

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
What is Hydrometeorology?
Hydrometeorology is the science that studies the cycle of water. It is intimately related
to the meteorology, hydrology, and climatology sciences. The hydrometeorology studies the
processes of the hydrological cycle that occur in the atmosphere (evaporation, condensation,
and precipitation) and in the ground (rainfall interception, infiltration, and surface runoff)
and their interactions. The hydrometeorology science studies the behavior of hydrologic
elements, such as rivers, ponds, and dams
34
Page
Oceans and seas have great influence on the weather of continental masses. A large
portion of the solar energy reaching the sea-surface is consumed in the process of
evaporation. These waters evaporated from the sea/ocean is carried up into the atmosphere
and condenses, forming clouds from which all forms of precipitation result. Sometimes,
intense cyclonic circulations occur which is what we call the tropical cyclones.
Tropical cyclones are warm-core low pressure systems associated with a spiral inflow
of mass at the bottom level and spiral outflow at the top level. They always form over oceans
where sea surface temperature, also air temperatures are greater than 26°C. The air
accumulates large amounts of sensible and latent heat as it spirals towards the center. It
receives this heat from the sea and the exchange can occur rapidly, because of the large
amount of spray thrown into the air by the wind.
The energy of the tropical cyclone is thus derived from the massive liberation of the
latent heat of condensation.
Tropical cyclones can only form over oceans of the world except in the South Atlantic
Ocean and the south eastern Pacific where a tropical cyclone could never be formed due to
the cooler sea surface temperature and higher vertical wind shears. They develop at latitudes
usually greater than 5° from the equator. They reach their greatest intensity while located
over warm tropical water. As soon as they move inland, they begin to weaken, but often not
before they have caused great destruction.
Hurricanes, Cyclone, Typhoons
These three are basically the same thing. They are given different names depending on
their point of origin.
Hurricanes are tropical storms that form over the North Atlantic Ocean and Northeast
Pacific. While Cyclones are formed over the South Pacific and Indian Ocean and Typhoons
are formed over the Northwest Pacific Ocean.
The Philippines is prone to tropical cyclones due to its geographical location which
generally produce heavy rains and flooding of large areas and also strong winds which result
in heavy casualties to human life and destructions to crops and properties. Thus, it is of
utmost importance to have sufficient knowledge on such maritime phenomena for beneficial
purposes.
Hydro meteorological Hazards
Hydro meteorological hazards are processes
of atmospheric, hydrological or oceanographic
nature that may cause the loss of life or injury,
property damage, social and economic disruption
or environmental degradation. Examples of this are
tropical cyclones, monsoon rains (like habagat and
amihan), tornado, ipo-ipo and thunderstorms,
floods, drought, wildfire and storm surges
Hazard Maps
Hazard maps are developed to identify areas
that are affected or vulnerable to a particular
hazard. They are typically made for natural hazards
such as earthquake ground motion, flooding,
landslides, liquefaction, tsunami and others.
These maps when properly utilized by
developers and engineers can save lives and
economic losses by avoiding exposure to some
35
hazards while designing other development to

mitigate or neutralize
