    Here are the possible effects of tsunami: - Strong currents that can sweep people and objects inland. Tsunami waves travel very fast, sometimes reaching heights of over 100 feet. - Flooding and inundation of coastal areas. As the tsunami waves reach land, they flood communities near the shoreline. Buildings and infrastructure can be heavily damaged or destroyed by flooding. - Loss of life. Drowning is the primary cause of death from tsunamis as the rushing water sweeps people out to sea. Debris carried by the waves can also cause injuries. - Economic damage. In addition to property destruction, tsunamis can severely impact coastal economies that rely on fishing, tourism and

    2. What did you feel?


    Earthquake - is a natural phenomenon
    wherein the surface of the earth
    moves or vibrates due to a sudden
    release of energy that is caused by the
    movement of plates.
    Earthquake Hazards
    Ground Shaking – the vibration of the ground where an
    earthquake occurs which is usually recorded in terms of
    intensity.
    Earthquake Hazards
    Surface Rupture – happens on areas where the fault zone
    moves. To avoid risk that can be caused by surface
    rupture, we should avoid building structures near the
    fault lines.
    Earthquake Hazards
    Liquefaction – this occurs when sand or soil and
    groundwater mixed during an earthquake with a
    magnitude of 4.5 or higher which make the ground very
    soft.
    Secondary Hazards

    a. Tsunami
    b. Flooding
    c. Fire
