Esquivias Assistant National Statistician National Censuses Service ISSN 0117-1453 FOREWORD The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the 2015 Census of Population (POPCEN 2015) in August 2015 primarily to update the country’s population and its demographic characteristics, such as the size, composition, and geographic distribution. Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides.

    Building Disaster and Climate Resilient Cities in ASEAN Draft Finnal Report APPENDIX 8: DAMAGES CAUSED BY NATURAL DISASTERS A8.1 Flood & Typhoon Table A8.1.1 Record of Flood & Typhoon (Cambodia) Place Date Damage Cambodia Flood Aug 1999 The flash floods, triggered by torrential rains during the first week of August, caused significant damage in the provinces of Sihanoukville, Koh Kong and Kam Pot. As of 10 August, four people were killed, some 8,000 people were left homeless, and 200 meters of railroads were washed away. More than 12,000 hectares of rice paddies were flooded in Kam Pot province alone. Floods Nov 1999 Continued torrential rains during October and early November caused flash floods and affected five southern provinces: Takeo, Kandal, Kampong Speu, Phnom Penh Municipality and Pursat. The report indicates that the floods affected 21,334 families and around 9,900 ha of rice field. IFRC's situation report dated 9 November stated that 3,561 houses are damaged/destroyed. So far, there has been no report of casualties. Flood Aug 2000 The second floods has caused serious damages on provinces in the North, the East and the South, especially in Takeo Province. Three provinces along Mekong River (Stung Treng, Kratie and Kompong Cham) and Municipality of Phnom Penh have declared the state of emergency. 121,000 families have been affected, more than 170 people were killed, and some $10 million in rice crops has been destroyed. Immediate needs include food, shelter, and the repair or replacement of homes, household items, and sanitation facilities as water levels in the Delta continue to fall.

  • Observation and Simulation of the Genesis of Typhoon Fengshen (2008)
    1 8D.7 GENESIS OF TYPHOON FENGSHEN (2008) FROM VORTEX SUPERPOSITION: PALAU FIELD EXPERIMENT AND A GLOBAL CLOUD-RESOLVING SIMULATION Hiroyuki Yamada1, Tomoe Nasuno1, Wataru Yanase2, Ryuichi Shirooka1, and Masaki Satoh2,1 1Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology, Yokosuka, Japan 2Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute, University of Tokyo, Kashiwa, Japan 1. INTRODUCTION One of the greatest remaining challenges in the study of tropical cyclone is to understand and predict their formation from weak cyclonic disturbances. In the western tropical Pacific, although many previous studies pointed out the participation of large- and synoptic-scale cyclonic disturbances in tropical cyclogenesis (e.g., Sobel and Bretherton 1999; Dickinson and Molinari 2002; Fu et al. 2007), little is known about mechanisms governing their transformation into a deep warm-core vortex. In considerable part, the Figure 1. (a) The observed and simulated tracks of Typhoon Fengshen.

Here U is the 39 uniform zonal wind velocity, N the Brunt-Vaisala frequency, h the mountain height, f the 40 Coriolis parameter, the maximum tangential velocity at a radius of from the 41 cyclone center and Lx is the halfwidth of the mountain in the east-west direction. It is 42 found that looping tracks (a) tend to occur under small U/Nh and U/fLx, moderate h/Lx, 43 and large Vmax/Nh, which correspond to slow movement (leading to subgeostrophic flow 44 associated with strong orographic blocking), moderate steepness, and strong tangential 45 wind associated with TC vortex; (b) are often accompanied by an area of perturbation high 46 pressure to the northeast of the mountain, which lasts for only a short period; and (c) do 47 not require the existence of a northerly jet.
