Typhoon Goni (Rolly; 2020) – the strongest landfalling storm on record, making landfall in Bato, Catanduanes with maximum sustained winds of 195 mph, same strength as Typhoon Haiyan. Typhoon Rai (Odette; 2021) – severely affected the same areas as Haiyan 8 years after. Typhoon Noru (Karding; 2022) – a powerful typhoon that rapidly ...
The World Health Organization has spearheaded initiatives among help workers, especially from the Department of Health (Philippines), in extending Psychological First Aid to people in typhoon-affected areas. WHO Representative in the country Dr Julie Hall foresees long-lasting effects from the typhoon. She calls for increased preparedness to ...
In terms of one-minute sustained winds from the JTWC, Haiyan was the most powerful storm to strike land on record, later tied with Typhoon Meranti in 2016 and broken by Typhoon Goni in 2020. [ 20 ] [ 25 ] [ 27 ] As Haiyan approached Guiuan, mountainous terrain disrupted the cyclone's low-level inflow, slightly degrading the storm's structure ...
This made Haiyan the strongest storm globally to make landfall, in terms of 1-minute sustained wind speeds, until the record was broken by Super Typhoon Rolly (Goni) 7 years later. Upon impact, the storm produced a large storm surge, which was a primary cause for the abnormally high death toll of nearly 7,000 people Haiyan caused in the ...

Since 1947, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) has classified all typhoons in the Northwestern Pacific Ocean with wind speeds of at least 130 knots (67 m/s; 150 mph; 240 km/h)—the equivalent of a strong Category 4 on the Saffir–Simpson scale, as super typhoons.

Earthquake environmental effects are divided into two main types: Coseismic surface faulting induced by the 1915 Fucino, Central Italy, earthquake. Primary effects: which are the surface expression of the seismogenic source (e.g., surface faulting), normally observed for crustal earthquakes above a given magnitude threshold (typically M w =5.5 ...
