  • Assessment of Tsunami Hazard in Sabah – Level of Threat, Constraints and Future Work Felix Tongkul*, Rodeano Roslee, Ahmad Khairut Termizi Mohd Daud
    Bulletin of the Geological Society of Malaysia, Volume 70, November 2020, pp. 1 - 15 DOI: https://doi.org/10.7186/bgsm70202001 Assessment of tsunami hazard in Sabah – Level of threat, constraints and future work Felix Tongkul*, Rodeano Roslee, Ahmad Khairut Termizi Mohd Daud Natural Disaster Research Centre (NDRC) Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 88400, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia * Corresponding author email address: [email protected] Abstract: The coastal areas of Sabah are exposed to far-field earthquake-induced tsunamis that could be generated along the trenches of Manila, Negros, Sulu, Cotabato, Sangihe and North Sulawesi. Tsunami simulation models from these trenches indicated that tsunami waves can reach the coast of Sabah between 40 and 120 minutes with tsunami wave heights reaching up to 3 m near the coast. The level of tsunami threat is high in southeast Sabah due to its narrow continental shelf and proximity to tsunami source in the North Sulawesi Trench. The level of tsunami threat is moderate in north and east Sabah due to their proximity to tsunami source in the Sulu Trench. The level of tsunami threat is low in west Sabah due to its distant location to tsunami source from the Manila Trench. While tsunamis cannot be prevented, its impact on human life and property can be reduced through proper assessment of its threat using tsunami simulation models. Unfortunately, constraints remain in producing a reliable tsunami inundation models due to the lack of high-resolution topography and bathymetry data in Sabah and surrounding seas. It would be helpful if such data can be acquired by the relevant government agencies, at least first, in high threat-level areas, such as Tawau and Semporna districts.

  • Large Intermediate-Depth Earthquakes and the Subduction Process
    80 Physics ofthe Earth and Planetary Interiors, 53 (1988) 80—166 Elsevier Science Publishers By., Amsterdam — Printed in The Netherlands Large intermediate-depth earthquakes and the subduction process Luciana Astiz ~, Thorne Lay 2 and Hiroo Kanamori ~ ‘Seismological Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA (U.S.A.) 2 Department of Geological Sciences, University ofMichigan, Ann Arbor, MI (USA.) (Received September 22, 1987; accepted October 21, 1987) Astiz, L., Lay, T. and Kanamori, H., 1988. Large intermediate-depth earthquakes and the subduction process. Phys. Earth Planet. Inter., 53: 80—166. This study provides an overview of intermediate-depth earthquake phenomena, placing emphasis on the larger, tectonically significant events, and exploring the relation of intermediate-depth earthquakes to shallower seismicity. Especially, we examine whether intermediate-depth events reflect the state of interplate coupling at subduction zones. and whether this activity exhibits temporal changes associated with the occurrence of large underthrusting earthquakes. Historic record of large intraplate earthquakes (m B 7.0) in this century shows that the New Hebrides and Tonga subduction zones have the largest number of large intraplate events. Regions associated with bends in the subducted lithosphere also have many large events (e.g. Altiplano and New Ireland). We compiled a catalog of focal mechanisms for events that occurred between 1960 and 1984 with M> 6 and depth between 40 and 200 km. The final catalog includes 335 events with 47 new focal mechanisms, and is probably complete for earthquakes with mB 6.5. For events with M 6.5, nearly 48% of the events had no aftershocks and only 15% of the events had more than five aftershocks within one week of the mainshock.

  • ADDRESSING ILLEGAL WILDLIFE TRADE in the PHILIPPINES PHILIPPINES Second-Largest Archipelago in the World Comprising 7,641 Islands
    ADDRESSING ILLEGAL WILDLIFE TRADE IN THE PHILIPPINES PHILIPPINES Second-largest archipelago in the world comprising 7,641 islands Current population is 100 million, but projected to reach 125 million by 2030; most people, particularly the poor, depend on biodiversity 114 species of amphibians 240 Protected Areas 228 Key Biodiversity Areas 342 species of reptiles, 68% are endemic One of only 17 mega-diverse countries for harboring wildlife species found 4th most important nowhere else in the world country in bird endemism with 695 species More than 52,177 (195 endemic and described species, half 126 restricted range) of which are endemic 5th in the world in terms of total plant species, half of which are endemic Home to 5 of 7 known marine turtle species in the world green, hawksbill, olive ridley, loggerhead, and leatherback turtles ILLEGAL WILDLIFE TRADE The value of Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) is estimated at $10 billion–$23 billion per year, making wildlife crime the fourth most lucrative illegal business after narcotics, human trafficking, and arms. The Philippines is a consumer, source, and transit point for IWT, threatening endemic species populations, economic development, and biodiversity. The country has been a party to the Convention on Biological Diversity since 1992. The value of IWT in the Philippines is estimated at ₱50 billion a year (roughly equivalent to $1billion), which includes the market value of wildlife and its resources, their ecological role and value, damage to habitats incurred during poaching, and loss in potential

  • Contrasting Morphological Trends of Islands in Central Philippines: Speculation on Their Origin
    The Island Arc (2000) 9, 627–637 Thematic Article Contrasting morphological trends of islands in Central Philippines: Speculation on their origin GRACIANO P. YUMUL JR,1* CARLA B. DIMALANTA,1,2 RODOLFO A. TAMAYO JR 1,3 AND JENNY ANNE L. BARRETTO1 1Rushurgent Working Group, National Institute of Geological Sciences, College of Science, University of the Philippines, Diliman, 1101, Quezon City The Philippines, (email: [email protected]), 2Ocean Research Institute, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan, 3UMR 6538 Domaines Océaniques, Université de Bretagne Occidentale, Brest, France Abstract The Palawan microcontinental block collided with the Philippine Mobile Belt in the Central Philippine region resulting in the counterclockwise rotation of Mindoro– Marinduque and clockwise rotation of Panay. The collision also brought about the clock- wise rotation of north-east Negros, Cebu, north-west Masbate and Bohol (collectively called the Western Visayan block), resulting into their present-day northeast–southwest trend. This suggests a far more dramatic role of the collision than was previously recog- nized. Furthermore, the south-east Sulu Sea sub-basin is inferred to have also undergone collision-related clockwise rotation which can account for the observed east-west trending magnetic lineations in the basin. Aside from explaining the contrasting morphological trends of the different islands in Central Philippines, the rotation can also explain, albeit in a different way, how the belts of sedimentary basins, ophiolites and arcs in Panay and Negros can extend to Northern Luzon. Published paleomagnetic data suggest that the collision-related rotation commenced during the early to middle Miocene and had ceased by the late Miocene.

  • 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.
