Classification of Earthquakes Based on Cause:

Tectonic Earthquakes Volcanic Earthquakes Collapse Earthquakes Explosion Earthquakes

Landslides

The sudden and rapid movement of a large amount of material down a slope produce by earthquakes or incessant heavy rainfall, w/ch also predisposes the area to sinkhole development and eventually cause massive destruction.

Tropical Storm Uring

Thelma deadliest tropical cyclones in Philippine history, killing at least 5,081 people. (wiki)

Vulnerable Groups in the country

Pyroclastic Flow

a dense, destructive mass of very hot ash, lava fragments, and gases ejected explosively from a volcano and typically flowing downslope at great speed.

Lahar

a destructive mudflow on the slopes of a volcano.

Tsunami

a long high sea wave caused by an earthquake, submarine landslide, or other disturbance. also known as "seismic sea waves" can travel hundreds of miles over the open sea and destroy lands with waves as high as 100 ft or more

Geological Hazard

an extreme natural events in the crust of the earth that pose a threat to life and property, for example, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis (tidal waves) and landslides

Ballistic Projectile

are Volcanic rock materials directly ejected from the volcano's vent with force and trajectory

Ground Shaking

created by seismic Earth movements, when the ground shakes strongly building may collapse and their occupants may be wounded or die.

Physical Impact

death of people destruction and loss of vital infrastructure wide spread loss of housing

R.A. 10121 (Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010)

define disaster as a severe disruption of a community on society's day to day.

define disaster as a sudden overwhelming and unforeseen events in different levels.

Mitigation

defined as planning and preparations

Socio-Cultural Impact

displacement of population loss of cultural identity forced adoption of new sets of culture ethnic conflicts

Risk assessment

important aspect of disaster planning it identifies what natural or man-made phenomenon the individual, community or country is at risk for.

Physical Vulnerability

interaction between living things, structures, and systems

Environmental Vulnerability

judicious use and protection of natural resources

Environmental Impact

loss of forest due to forest fires loss of freshwater due to salination (intrusion of saltwater to freshwater sources disturbance of biodiversity loss of natural rivers and other tributaries

Economic Impact

loss of job due to displacement loss of harvest and livestock loss of farms, fish cages, and other sources of living loss of money and other valuable like jewelry, furniture, and appliances

Earthquake-induced ground subsidence

lowering of land due to earthquake on a fault line can produce large portion of land to sink during an earthquake
