Extremenaturalevents in the crust that will create a threat for humanity or any living things
Geological hazards
Earthquakes
Volcanic eruptions
Landslides
Sinkholes
Landslide
The movement of debris rocks or any particles in the earth in the downslope
Rainfall-induced landslide
A type of landslide which comes with water in it due to heavy rainfall
Sinkhole
A naturally occurring geological hazard below the surface that collapses eventually, formed due to dissolving of rock beneath the surface, commonly limestone
Types of sinkholes
Solution sinkhole
Cover collapse sinkhole
Solution sinkhole
The mostcommonsinkhole, formed when the soil is very thin on the surface and exposing the bedrock, once it starts to rain the soil is carried out leaving a hole
Cover collapse sinkhole
The mostdangerous type of sinkhole, happens when water penetrates the topsoil going to the limestone and dissolves it until the surface collapses
Landslide
The movement of debris, rocks or any particles in the earth in the downslope
Rainfall-induced landslide
A type of landslide which comes with water in it, aside from debris and rocks, due to heavy rainfall
Sinkhole
Anaturallyoccurringgeologicalhazard below the surface that collapses eventually, also called "karst terrain"
Types of sinkholes
Solution sinkhole
Cover collapse sinkhole
Cover subsidence sinkhole
Solution sinkhole
The most common sinkhole, formed when the soil is verythin on the surface and exposes the bedrock, causing the soil to be carried out by rain and leaving a hole
Coversubsidence sinkhole
The mostcommon with a semi-permeable surface like sand, where the limestone is dissolved below the surface due to rain, causing the space to be filled by the downward movement of particles
Limestone is a type of rock that is commonlydissolved in the process of sinkhole formation
Factors affecting sinkhole and landslide include rainfall
Geologists refer to the terrain where sinkholes form as "karst terrain"
It is defined as the movement of rock debris or earth down the slope.
landslide
Extreme natural events in the crust of the earth that pose a threat to life and
property
geological hazard
A topographic depression formed when underlying limestone bedrock is dissolved
by groundwater

-collapse
type of geological hazards that carries debris and particles
-landslide
type of sinkhole where the limestone is xposed and covered in thin layer of soil
