Study Notes
Introduction to Self-Learning Modules
- Designed for learners to continue studies from home.
- Includes activities, questions, exercises, and discussions.
- Pretests and posttests are provided for assessing understanding.
Earth Structure
- The outermost layer of the Earth is the crust.
- Earth's crust and upper mantle form the lithosphere.
- Continental crust is thicker and heavier than oceanic crust.
Plate Tectonics
- Earth’s crust is composed of continuously moving plates.
- Theory of Plate Tectonics states that the crust is broken and in constant motion.
- Earthquakes, fault lines, landslides, and mountains result from Plate Tectonics.
Earthquake Types
- Tectonic earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of energy from shifting plates.
- Aftershocks and foreshocks may also occur.
Tsunamis
- Tsunamis can result from underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
Natural Disaster Risk Assessment
- Hazard maps indicate high-risk areas for earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis in the Philippines.
- Areas shaded darker on maps are higher risk for specific natural disasters.
- Regions where all four risks are present should be identified.
Geographic Risk Zones
- Batanes, Isabela, Palawan, and Romblon noted for varying levels of risk.
- Awareness of each province's risk factors is crucial for disaster preparedness.
Disaster Preparedness Activities
- Preparedness planning focuses on actions before, during, and after disasters.
- Essential for mitigating harmful effects during earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions.
- Information from news articles and community members can support learning about local risks.
Safety Practices During Earthquakes
- Get under sturdy furniture during an earthquake.
- Awareness of safe zones like doors or structural supports is vital.
Importance of Disaster Awareness
- Staying informed about natural disaster risks enables proper precautions.
- Knowledge improves preparedness and safety in vulnerable areas.
