Geohazard Assessment Refresher Course

The inspirational message was delivered by Dr. Karlo L. Queaño.

Guests are allowed to use room heaters, electric irons, and similar devices inside the hotel rooms.

The hotel may refuse to render services to a person disturbing the peaceful stay of other guests.

Loss of a room card/key is subject to an extra charge of Php. 500.00.

The deterministic approach for landslide susceptibility mapping is based on statistical models.

Bivariate statistical analyses involve comparing a landslide inventory map with maps of earthquake influencing parameters.

The heuristic approach for landslide susceptibility mapping is very useful for mapping hazard on a large scale.

Probabilistic approach for landslide susceptibility mapping quantifies the exceedance probability of being affected by a landslide with a specific local intensity.

The complexity of the interrelationship among the parameters makes it easy to specify the characteristic of the parameter in the description of susceptibility rating.

The map focused solely on the slope gradient when determining landslide susceptibility.

Field validation yielded significant presence of denudational features after the validation process in August 2023.

Initiation of a community-based early warning system for landslides was carried out in Brgy. Tawang, Little Kibungan, Benguet.

The heuristic approach to landslide susceptibility mapping relies heavily on expert opinions.

The direct mapping method for creating a susceptibility map compares geological and geomorphological properties with those affected by landslide within sites of different geological and terrain conditions.

The probabilistic approach is one of the quantitative approaches to landslide susceptibility mapping.

The greater the slope is, the lower the probability of landslide occurrence when affected by adverse external environmental factors.
