MINI UNIT
Lahar - Indonesian word of Destructive Mudflow, prompted by strong rains or earthquake
Ashfall/Tephra - airborne ash, most hazardous ill effects of volcanic eruption
Pyroclastic Flow - high-speed __current of scorching gas&roc__k, creates fire along path
Ballistic Projectiles - rock emitted by eruption, like cannonballs
Volcanic Gases - responsible for acid rain, emits hazardous gases Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) & Sulfur Dioxide (SO2)
Lava Flows - Liquefy rocks that flow down.
Magma - rocks inside the volcano
If you will classify the disaster that happened in the San Andreas movie, what classification would it be? NATURAL DISASTER
If you will classify the earthquake that happened in the San Andreas movie which results in disaster, what classification would it be? NATURAL EARTHQUAKE
In accordance with the classification of an earthquake based on its cause, the earthquake that results in a disaster from the San Andreas movie was caused by a ? TECTONIC EARTHQUAKE
Magnitude of Earthquake in San Andreas? 9.1 MAGNITUDE
"Blake together with her companies gathered radio communication devices to contact her father." PRE-DISASTER PHASE
"All individuals left the building when the earthquake happens." DISASTER PHASE/ RESPONSE
"Professionals came to aid the victims of the disaster by giving them proper treatments." POST-DISASTER PHASE/ RECOVERY
Ground Shaking - most important cause of earthquake damage, created by SEISMIC earth movements.
Liquefaction - cause soil to lose strength and flow.
Earthquake Induced Ground Subsidence - large portion of land to sink / rocks to deform, also rocks breaking under stress.
Earthquake Induced Landslide - movement of rocks, earth’s debris and slopes / collapse of the materials under a hill slope and the force of gravity.
Tsunami - “seismic sea waves”, caused by underwater volcanic eruption, earthquake, or coastal landslide.
Richter Scale - measures the earthquake's magnitude.
Seismograph - records the motion of the ground during an earthquake.
Seismometer - internal part of seismograph, a mass or pendulum mounted to a spring.
Magnitude: energy released of the earthquake
Intensity: strength of shaking during the earthquake.
