THIS MAINLY APPLIES TO DOCUMENTS, GUIDES AND SUBMISSIONS FROM THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY AUTHORITY (NRA) - THAT SAID, IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT THE NRA IN PRESSING AHEAD WITH INTRODUCTION OF THE NEW REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS QUITE CORRECTLY PRIORITISED JAPANESE LANGUAGE VERSIONS. HOWEVER, THIS MAY HAVE GIVEN RISE TO TWO AREAS OF INCOMPLETENESS IN THE REVIEW: FIRST, THAT THE LITERATURE SURVEY MAY NOT HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY COMPREHENSIVE AND, SECOND, THE SHORT TIME AND LIMITED RESOURCES AVAILABLE FOR TRANSLATION HAVE NOT BEEN ENTIRELY SUFFICIENT TO TRAWL THROUGH THE JAPANESE LANGUAGE VERSIONS ACTUALLY IDENTIFIED AND ACCESSIBLE. 1ST ISSUE REV NO APPROVED CURRENT ISSUE DATE 10 12 2014 R3229-A1-R13 23 FEBRUARY 2015 R3229-A1 p1 of 72 IMPLICATIONS OF TEPHRA (VOLCANIC ASH) FALL-OUT ON THE OPERATIONAL SAFETY OF THE SENDAI NUCLEAR POWER PLANT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Review comprises three aspects of the present nuclear safety measures relating to the functioning of the Sendai nuclear power plant (NPP) when subject to high levels of tephra ash fallout from an erupting volcanic event – the Review does not consider in any great depth other volcanic hazards, such as pyroclastic density flow, etc., nor how these hazards might act in combination with tephra fall to challenge the resilience of an operational NPP.

JIMENEZ l 1 Rushurgent Working Group National Institute of Geological Sciences College of Science, University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City, Philippines 20 cean Research Institute University of Tokyo Tokyo, Japan Abstract: The different volcanoes and volcanic centers in Central Luzon, Philippines define two volcanic chains - the Western and Eastern Volcanic Chains. The Western Volcanic Chains include volcanic rocks generated in the forearc and main volcanic arc regions with respect to the Manila Trench. The Eastern Volcanic Chains, on the other hand, were extruded on the back arc side. Across- and along-arc variations are present in these two volcanic chains. These variations can be attributed to the interplay of several geochemical processes that occuned in source regions that manifest island arc affinity. An adakite-tholeiiticlcalc-alkaline-adakitic rock across-arc variation is recognized in Central Luzon. INTRODUCTION Generation of andesites by lower crust melting has also been forwarded in the middle 80's The last three decades saw the introduction of (Takahashi, 1986). Implicit to this model is the new ideas, innovations to recycling of old models assumption that the lower crust is made up of related to arc magmagenesis.

The designation of a volcano as capable is not dependent only on the time elapsed since the most recent eruption of the volcano, but rather is dependent on the credibility of the occurrenceIAEA, 2012 of future volcanic eruptions. What probability constitutes serious radiological consequences In some States a value for the annual probability of 10-7 is used in the hazard assessment for external events as a reasonable basis to evaluate whether a volcano in the region could produce any type of activity in the future that could lead to serious radiological consequences(IAEA 2012).

  • Volcans Monde SI Dec2010
    GEOLOGICAL MAP OF THE WORLD AT 1: 25,000,000 SCALE, THIRD EDITION - Compilator: Philippe Bouysse, 2006 ACTIVE AND RECENT VOLCANOES This list of 1508 volcanoes is taken from data of the Global Volcanism Program run by the Smithsonian Institution (Washington, D.C., USA) and downloaded in April 2006 from the site www.volcano.si.edu/world/summary.cfm?sumpage=num. From the Smithsonian's list, 41 locations have been discarded due to a great deal of uncertainties, particularly as concerns doubtful submarine occurrences (mainly ship reports of the 19th and early 20th centuries). Also have been omitted submarine occurrences from the axes of "normal" oceanic accretionary ridges, i.e. not affected by hotspot activity. NOTES Volcano number: the numbering system was developped by the Catalog of Active Volcanoes of the World in the 1930s and followed on by the Smithsonian Institution, namely in the publication of T. Simkin & L.Siebert: Volcanoes of the World (1994). Name and Geographic situation: some complementary information has been provided concerning a more accurate geographic location of the volcano, e.g. in the case of smaller islands or due to political changes (as for Eritrea). Geographic coordinates: are listed in decimal parts of a degree. The position of volcano no. 104-10 (Tskhouk-Karckar, Armenia) was corrected (Lat. 39°.73 N instead of 35°.73 N). An asterisk (*) in column V.F. indicates the position of the center point of a broad volcanic field. Elevation: in meters, positive or negative for submarine volcanoes. Time frame (column T-FR): this is a Smithsonian' classification for the time of the volcano last known eruption: D1= 1964 or later D2= 1900 – 1963 D3= 1800 – 1899 D4= 1700 – 1799 D5= 1500 – 1699 D6= A.D.1 – 1499 D7= B.C.

FLORES 9 Inf'antry Philippine Army ANALYTICAL STUDY OF THE DEFENSE OF BATAAN - A BRIEF Purpose.-- The purpose of this monograph is to present the salient military lessons during Defense of BATAAN where armed forces of the UNITES STATES were involved in actual battle immediately after Pearl Harbor. Although the operations are not comparable in magnitude to major battles during the latter years of World War II, a brief analysis of war lessons, both omissions and commissions, are worth presenting. THE DEFENSE Japanese Landings and USAFFE Withdrawal.-- Barely six hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese KOBATA AIR DIVISION bombed and strafed CLARK FIELD, IBA FIELD, the CAVITE Naval Base, Ft. McKinley, Ft. Stotsenburg, Camp JOHN HAY and DAVAO. The results were so devastating that within an hour, the U.S. Far Eastern Air Force and Phil. Air Corps were completely crippled. Thereafter, USAFFE troops had to fight without the least of air support. Under cover of aerial offensive major Jap landings in LINGAYEN and ANTIMONAN were almost unopposed except with a few artillery and M-1917 rifles manned by Filipino troops mobilized barely 45 days before.

ÖZET Filipin takımadalarının en büyük Dünya’nın ise 17’nci en büyük adası olan Luzon, Filipin Cumhuriyetinin en çok nüfus, en çok sanayi tesisi, en çok liman, en çok tarım arazisi, en çok orman alanı ve en çok turizm merkezi barındıran adasıdır. Bu nedenle hem tarım ve sanayi, hem ulaşım ve ticaret, hem de enerji ve turizm bakımından Luzon, gelişmekte olan bu ülkenin adeta iktisadi ve beşeri lokomotifidir. Bu araştırmada Luzon Adası’nın coğrafi konumu ve fiziki coğrafya özellikleri açıklandığı gibi doğal turizm çekicilikleri ve doğa koruma alanları da kısaca ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada bir yandan adanın başlıca turistik doğal merkezler irdelenmiş, diğer yandan da adanın turizm kaynakları ve turizm potansiyeli resmedilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada hem adanın başlıca milli parkları, volkanları, şelaleleri, akarsuları, körfezleri, plajları, gölleri ve mağaraları hem de jeomorfolojik, ekolojik ve hidrografik turizm çekicilikleri örnekler verilerek irdelenmiştir.
