GEOLOGIC HAZARDS
is an extreme natural event in the crust of the Earth that pose a threat to life and
property.
DEFINITIONS
naturally occurring hazard below the surface that collapse eventually.
This hazard will happen when there is an excessive groundwater removal
and dissolution of limestone underneath the surface of the Earth.
Sinkhole possible causes are dissolution of limestone and other rocks, collapse
of rock columns supporting the surface, and underground mining
activities within the affected area.
To warn other people about the slight depression on the certain roads,
tell everyone that the ground is slowly sinking due to subsidence.
movement of debris rocks or any particles in the earth in the downslope. Rainfall is
the most common cause of this hazard. Erosion and landslide are common in
places such as coastal areas and seashores.
-To prevent from coastal erosion to happen, we should
building seawalls to stabilize the shoreline.
proper land use management and planning.
restricting development of public utilities in prone areas.
-Natural causes of landslides are earthquake, rainfall and wildfire.
Landslide -Coastal erosion happens when the shoreline is slowly getting closer to the
coastal village houses.
-The continuous action of the waves has weakened the coast that’s why there are
many eroded coasts in our country.
The sign of impending coastal erosion is
1. sea waves get stronger and stronger
2. shore line advances towards the community, and
3. sea water slowly increasing.
