    ESTABLISHING A HOLOCENE TEPHROCHRONOLOGY FOR WESTERN SAMOA AND ITS IMPLICATION FOR THE RE-EVALUATION OF VOLCANIC HAZARDS by Aleni Fepuleai A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Copyright © 2016 by Aleni Fepuleai School of Geography, Earth Science and Environment Faculty of Science, Technology and Environment The University of the South Pacific August 2016 DECLARATION Statement by Author I, Aleni Fepuleai, declare that this thesis is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge, it contains no material previously published, or substantially overlapping with material submitted for the award of any other degree at any institution, except where due acknowledge is made in the next. Signature: Date: 01/07/15 Name: Aleni Fepuleai Student ID: s11075361 Statement by Supervisor The research in this thesis was performed under my supervision and to my knowledge is the sole work of Mr Aleni Fepuleai. Signature Date: 01/07/15 Name: Dr Eleanor John Designation: Principal Supervisor ABSTRACT Samoan volcanism is tectonically controlled and is generated by tension-stress activities associated with the sharp bend in the Pacific Plate (Northern Terminus) at the Tonga Trench. The Samoan island chain dominated by a mixture of shield and post-erosional volcanism activities. The closed basin structures of volcanoes such as the Crater Lake Lanoto enable the entrapment and retention of a near-complete sedimentary record, itself recording its eruptive history. Crater Lanoto is characterised as a compound monogenetic and short-term volcano. A high proportion of primary tephra components were found in a core extracted from Crater Lake Lanoto show that Crater Lanoto erupted four times (tephra bed-1, 2, 3, and 4).

In Samoa, a country with a high threat to local tsunamis, we apply scenarios for the 2009 South Pacific tsunami inundation at different grid resolutions (50 and 10 m) to quantify building and road exposure at the national, district and village levels. We Citation: Williams, S.; Paulik, R.; show that while the coarser 50 m model is adequate for use in the rapid identification of exposure Weaving, R.; Bosserelle, C.; Chan at the national and district levels, it can overestimate exposure by up to three times more at the Ting, J.; Wall, K.; Simi, T.; Scheele, F.

  • TSUNAMI Samoa, 29 September, 2009
    TSUNAMI Samoa, 29 September, 2009 Sunset Lalomanu Beach 2009 An account of the tsunami disaster, the response, its aftermath, acknowledgement and the trek to recovery. Prepared by: The Government of Samoa 1 NOTE! This is not intended to be a comprehensive account of the tsunami disaster. Such an account would require more in depth research, interviews with victims and survivors as well as aid and relief workers and volunteers, both public and private, in order to do justice to such a task and to the memory of those who lost their lives, those who survived, and those who worked tirelessly and selflessly to try to alleviate the suffering of the thousands of people affected. The tsunami was well covered and documented by the media and hopefully those records shall suffice to preserve the story of this disaster for posterity. This therefore is only an overview of the disaster, the response to it and the coordination role of the Government through the National Disaster Management Council, and the implementation of the Recovery Plan. Above all, this is the best opportunity to publicly acknowledge all that was given so willingly and generously for Samoa and its people in probably its darkest moments in history. 2 Faafetai! Thank You! In addition to all messages of gratitude and appreciation we had conveyed either publicly or privately and individually in the past, this report serves to iterate acknowledgement of the contributions of governments, International organizations, non government organizations, private sector, as well as individuals, both in Samoa and abroad, rendered in so many different ways, towards the relief and recovery operations in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami which hit Samoa in late September 2009.
