  • Typhoon Hagupit – Situation Report (20:30 Manila Time)
    TYPHOON HAGUPIT NR. 1 7 DECEMBER 2014 Typhoon Hagupit – Situation Report (20:30 Manila Time) GENERAL INFORMATION - Typhoon Hagupit made landfall on Saturday 6 December at 9:15 pm in Dolores, Eastern Samar. After weakening to a Category 2 typhoon, Hagupit then made a second landfall in Cataingan, Masbate on Sunday 7 December. - Typhoon Hagupit has maintained its strength and is now (8:00 pm Manila Time) over the vicinity of Aroroy, Masbate. According to PAGASA’s weather bulletin issued today, 7 December at 18:00, the expected third landfall over Sibuyan Island will be between 02:00 – 04:00 in the morning tomorrow and will be associated with strong winds, storm surge and heavy to torrential rainfall. Hagupit is expected to exit the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Thursday morning. - The typhoon is not as powerful as Typhoon Haiyan but Hagupit is moving slowly through the Philippines meaning prolonged rainfall and an increased likelihood of flooding and landslides. Currently the extent of damage is not yet clear. The authorities will send an assessment mission tomorrow to Region VIII where some municipalities in Eastern and Northern Samar are thought to have sustained heavier damage. Signal no. 1 has been issued in Manila, down from Signal no. 2 this morning Forecast Positions: - 24 hour (tomorrow afternoon): 60 km East of Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro or at 160 km South of Science Garden, Quezon City. - 48 hour (Tuesday afternoon): 170 km Southwest of Science Garden, Quezon City. - 72 hour (Wednesday afternoon): 400 km West of Science Garden, Quezon City.

    ENVIRONMENTAL RADIOACTIVITY MEASUREMENTS IN THE PHILIPPINES ABSTRACT Monitoring of terrestrial and marine environment for radioactivity arising from natural and artificial sources were conducted regularly as part of the environmental radiation surveillance program of the Institute. External gamma radiation in ambient air was measured in established monitoring stations surrounding PRR-1 facility using a High Pressure Ion Chamber. Samples offish and seawater were collected from the coasts of Surigao City, Surigao, Borongan, Eastern Samar and Basco, Batanes and were analyzed for 137Cs. The average ambient gamma dose rate observed around PRR-1 facility was 49 nGy h"1 which falls closely with the average ambient gamma dose rate of 45 nGy h"1 observed over the entire Philippines (Duran etal., 1996). The average 137Cs activity concentration of 4 Bq m'3 measured in seawater falls within the range of values (2 to 13 Bq m'3) reported for seawater collected from the Pacific Ocean (Duran etal., 1996) and those reported in FAO Area 61 (Aarkrog et.al., 1996). The average 137Cs activity concentration of 4 Bq kg"1 dry (3 Bq kg"1 wet) observed in fish samples falls within the reported range of values (0.1 to 3 Bq kg"1 wet) for fish (Duran et.al., 1996, Aarkrog et.al., 1996). OBJECTIVES The project deals mainly with the determination of natural radioactivity levels in the Philippines and with environmental surveillance for radioactive fallout. Natural radioactivity measurements consists of two phases, namely: (1) measurement of exposure dose in the ambient environment due to cosmic radiation and naturally deposited radioactive ores and substances; (2) measurement of absorbed dose due to ingested radioactive substances (through diet and drinking water) which occur in nature.
