“Deadly M 6.6 Earthquake Strikes the Philippines Near Mindanao”

By: Trevor Nace (Forbes)

A magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck the southern Philippines on Tuesday, leaving

at least seven killed and widespread damage.
The epicenter of the earthquake was 14 kilometers to the east of Bual,
Philippines, and 60 miles from Davao City, the capital of Mindanao. At this time,
the USGS has issued no warning of a tsunami threat for the nearby islands.
At this time, over 1,200 homes and 10 schools have been destroyed by the
recent earthquake with many more sustaining significant damages from the shaking.

 This was the second powerful earthquake to strike Mindanao in just a couple of
weeks. The region experienced a 6.3 magnitude earthquake on October 16, 2019,
killing five.
The shaking across Mindanao caused people flee to cover and scarily watch
their entire office building shake. The on-going movements along a nearby major fault
line are the result of the two earthquakes.
The Philippines are located to the southwest of the Philippine Sea, which is
bordered by multiple major tectonic plate convergences. The Philippine Sea plate is
subducting underneath the Philippines, causing the formation of the Philippine Trench
and on-going volcanic and earthquakes in the island nation.
As the Philippine Sea plate moves underneath the Sunda plate, it creates the
volcanic island arc chain of the Philippines. During this process, we often see major
faulting and earthquakes associated with movement along those faults.
The Philippine fault extends 1,200 km and has been known to produce large
earthquakes. In 1990, an M 7.6 earthquake struck Luzon from movement along the
same Philippine fault line.
Situated along the ring of fire, the Philippine region experiences high earthquake
activity due to the subduction of the Pacific plate underneath bordering continental
plates. This causes significant and continual earthquake activity as movement
continues along faults.
Approximately six years ago in October of 2013, the nearby island of Bohol was
struck by a 7.3 magnitude earthquake, killing 100 people.

EVIDENCE 1:

WBLS-OBE MELC-Aligned Summative Assessment Science 8 2

EVIDENCE 2:

Explain how your evidences support your claim.

REASONING:

PART II: PERFORMANCE TASK (1 PRODUCT):

PERFORMANCE STANDARD:
Participate in decision making on where to build structures based on
knowledge of the location of active faults in the community
SITUATION:
You are a Geodetic Engineer of the Provincial Government of Ilocos Norte.
The Governor wants to build new structured buildings, specifically the first 5-star
hotels in the province. The engineering department head asked you to create a Map
of Ilocos Norte showing the active faults and fault lines to decide on where to build the
building. The Governor and Engineering department head will evaluate your Map of
Ilocos Norte based on the clarity of the map, rigid lines that show fault lines and
comprehensive legends.
GOAL:
You are to create a Map of Ilocos Norte showing the Active faults and fault lines.
ROLE: Geodetic Engineer
PRODUCT CHOICES: Map of Ilocos Norte

AUDIENCE: Governor and Engineering department head

STANDARDS: Your output will be assessed using the following:
1. Clearness of the map
2. Accuracy
3. Comprehensive legends.
