A. INTRODUCTION
TOPOGRAPHY
Samar province is hilly, with
mountain peaks ranging from 200 to
800 metres (660 to 2,620 ft) high and
narrow strips of lowlands, which tend to lie
in coastal peripheries or in the alluvial
plains and deltas accompanying large
rivers. The largest lowlands are located
along the northern coast extending up to
the valleys
of Catubig and Catarman rivers. Smaller
lowlands in Samar are to be found in
the Calbayog area and on the deltas
and small valleys of Gandara
and Ulot rivers. Slopes are generally
The province falls under the 2nd and the 4th type of climate. Type II is characterized by
having no dry season with a very pronounced maximum rain period from December to
February. Minimum monthly rainfall occurs during the period from March to May. Areas
characterized by this climate are generally along or very near the eastern coast, thus, open to
the northeast monsoon. Municipalities at the southeastern part of the province experience
this type of climate.
Type IV climate has no maximum rain and no dry season (rainfall is more or less
distributed throughout the year). This is an intermediate between the first and second types
of climate, although it resembles the second type more closely, hence it has no dry season.
Those areas located at the northwestern part of the province have this type of climate that
includes the municipalities of Gandara, San Jorge, Pagsanghan, Tarangnan, Sta. Margarita,
Sto. Niño, Almagro, Tagapul-an, Calbayog City and portions of Matuguinao and San Jose de
Buan.
The average rainfall in the past five (5) years (2008-2012) was 302.2 millimeters. The
highest rainfall was registered at 1,111 millimeters in February, 2008 due to continued
heavy rains during the northeast monsoon. The lowest rainfall for the past five years was
recorded in February, 2010 (7.90 mm.) because of the occurrence of "El Niño" which lasted
for five months (February-June). Fair weather was noted in 2009 and 2011 except for the
months of January and May at the latter year which recorded quite high rainfall at 991.6
millimeters and 669.9 millimeters respectively. See Table above and Figure below.
Climate scientists have declared that climate change is upon us. And this global
phenomenon that is happening now has been observed to cause extreme weather events-
droughts and intense tropical cyclones/typhoons- that impact adversely on man and
environment. What is more appalling is the increasing frequency and intensity of these events
that is foreseen to make disastrous impacts on the climate sensitive sectors, the agriculture,
health infrastructure, coastal water and forestry resources.
Planning for disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation was initiated
by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) with funding from the
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Australian Agency for
International Development (AUSAID) and was implemented nationwide.
The province's disaster risk and vulnerability assessment (DRVA): The province
is prone to three (3) hydrometeorologic hazards namely flood and flashflood, rain
induced landslides, and storm surge, and three (3) geologic hazards or earthquake
related hazards namely ground shaking, liquefaction and earthquake-induced
landslide.
HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL HAZARDS
Floods in the province are classified into three (3) as follows: (1) River flood –
which is caused by the overflowing of a river when run-off water exceeds the holding
capacity of the channels or depressions and covers adjacent to low-lying areas called
the "floodplain". (2) Flash flood – which is caused by a very short period of unusually
heavy rainfall in a mountainous or hilly area this usually occur in the Catbalogan area;
and (3) Coastal flood – which occurs when strong onshore winds push the water inland
and caused a rise in sea level and floods the low-lying coastal areas.
Typhoon that passed through, and others that may not directly hit but the
influence area are wide enough to affect the province, bringing heavy and continuous
rains would provoke flooding on deltas or floodplains adjacent to the river systems
provincewide. This is aggravated by the lesser catchment capacity of the watershed
areas, clogged waterways, heavily silted rivers, and the restricted flow of floodwaters
into the sea.
STORM SURGE. Storm surge refers to the onshore rush of water into the coastal
or low lying areas due to abnormal water level caused by high wind and low pressure
during typhoon occurrence. The islands and coastal municipalities of the province are
prone to storm surge.
From 2008-2011, the local disaster council have recorded about 50,000 families
affected by hydrometeorologic hazards with 6 fatalities and 5 injuries and around
95,000 of the province' population are vulnerable to flooding. Damage to properties,
infrastructures, agriculture and the temporary stoppage of traffic along the Maharlika
Highway that cost the government millions of pesos have been reported.
The impact of this coastal hazard is expected to become more widespread due to
climate change and sea level rise as well as with the continuing urbanization and
development of coastal communities in the country. The hazard can inflict serious
adverse impacts on society. Land, properties, infrastructure, and natural resources,
such as sandy beaches, can be destroyed.
What causes a landslide? Landslides occur when masses of rock, earth or debris
move down a slope. Gravity acting on an overly steep slope is the primary cause of a
landslide. They are activated by storm, fires and by human modification to the land.
New landslides occur as a result of rainstorms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and
various human activities.
The measures of landslides are mudflows (or debris flows), which are flows of
rock, earth, and other debris saturated with water. They develop when water rapidly
accumulates in the ground, such as during heavy rainfall, changing the earth into a
flowing river of mud or "slurry". Slurry can flow rapidly down slopes or through the
channels and can strike with little or no warning at avalanche speeds. Slurry can travel
5
several miles from its source, growing in size as it picks up trees, cars and other
materials along the way (US FEMA. Understanding Your Risk: Identifying Hazard and
Estimating losses).
GEOLOGICAL HAZARDS
Several strong earthquakes, ranging from intensity 6 to 7.8 in the Richter scale,
have been recorded to have struck near Samar from 1608 to 2012 but no death nor
heavy damage to infrastructure and properties have been reported.
Ground shaking is the main hazard created by seismic earth movements. This
term is used to describe the vibration of the ground during an earthquake. During an
earthquake seismic waves travel rapidly away from the source and through the earth's
crust. Upon reaching the ground, they produce shaking that may last from seconds to
minutes (Kramer, 1996).
Based on the six "worst case" scenarios simulated, Samar Province has a total
1,142 barangays and sitios out of 951 barangays, sitios and islands with a very high
level of earthquake induced landslide susceptibility. The highest number of barangay
which are highly susceptible to ground shaking are in Basey, Paranas, Calbiga, 5
Gandara, Daram, Catbalogan and Calbayog.
Provincewide, a total of 1,142 barangays and sitios are ground shaking prone. It
is worth mentioning however, that out of the 26 municipalities/cities only the
municipality of Tagapul-an is not highly susceptible to ground shaking. About 98.19% of
the total land area of the province is exposed to ground shaking.
Within the province are three earthquake faults/lineaments. The longest fault
line is the Southern Lineament1 which spans about 48 kilometers, starting from the
northwest portion of Giporlos and running northwestward through the northeast of
Balangiga, the western portion of Llorente and Balangkayan, Eastern Samar to the
northeastern tip of Marabut and the western section of Basey. The second longest fault
is the Sothern Samar Lineament2 which is approximately 30.49 kilometers runs from
the southwestern tip of Marabut northwestward to the southwestern part of Basey. The
third fault is the Central Samar Lineament has an estimated length of 29.43 kilometers
starts from Darahuway Islands runs along the central portion of Catbalogan City
northwestward to the central portion of San Jorge.
Liquefaction commonly occurs in areas that are water saturated (shallow water
table), low lying and situated in typically loosed (unconsolidated) foundation or in sandy
or silty deposits. Typical examples of these areas are river banks, abandoned rivers,
flood plains, coastlines and swamps.
LIQUEFACTION
Liquefaction commonly occurs in areas that are water saturated (shallow water
table), low lying and situated in typically loosed (unconsolidated) foundation or in sandy
or silty deposits. Typical examples of these areas are river banks, abandoned rivers,
flood plains, coastlines and swamps.
