Extractions: Homepage About PAHO Data Topics ... Search Health Planning for Volcanic Crisis Volcanoes, either dormant or active, coexist with 10% of the world's population (more than 500 million people), placing a very high potential risk on the neighboring communities. Statistics reveal the particular threat facing Latin American and Caribbean countries: in the 20th century, 76% of the deaths caused by volcanic eruptions took place in Latin America and the Caribbean. In the last 15 years, almost half of the strongest eruptions in the world took place in this region. This video is divided in two complementary, but clearly distinct parts that can be used independently. The first part deals with the main health risks resulting from volcanic eruptions. It dispels certain myths concerning the dangers to public health, pointing out that although lava and rocks do pose a grave danger, less spectacular, but more dangerous pyroclastic flows or mudflows have actually caused the greatest number of deaths and injuries. The second part of the video is centered on health sector preparedness and prevention plans and measures to minimize the damage caused by volcanic eruptions. Plans should cover several possible scenarios, they must be realistic and flexible and they must be carried out with the participation of other scientific sectors and emergency response agencies.

Extractions: The El Salvador Earthquake, and Lessons for the United States First, let me recognize your leadership and foresight as co-sponsors of this Natural Hazards Caucus. We appreciate your interest in these issues, which are vital to the health and well-being of our citizens and our society. Update on El Salvador earthquake and landslides A major earthquake occurred off the coast of El Salvador about 65 miles (110 km) SSE of San Salvador, and 60 miles SW of San Miguel, at 12:33 p.m. EST, Jan. 13, 2001 (11:33 a.m. local time in El Salvador). A preliminary magnitude of 7.6 was computed for this earthquake. [ National Earthquake Information Center map of event According to preliminary reports, at least 600 people were killed, 2400 were injured, and 440 are missing. More than 45,000 houses were destroyed in El Salvador. Most of the damage and casualties were caused by a large landslide at Santa Tecla. The earthquake was felt as far north as Mexico City and in tall buildings in some cities of Colombia. At least 6 people were killed in southeastern Guatemala. USGS response Several USGS scientists were already in Central America working on the recovery from Hurricane Mitch; they conducted reconnaissance studies of earthquake effects and landslides Wednesday in San Salvador and the surrounding towns, as well as visiting Santa Ana volcano about 60 km WNW of San Salvador to follow up on reports of possible eruptive activity. The U.S. military provided air support (a Blackhawk helicopter), allowing the team to cover extensive areas in and around the city; we greatly appreciate their support.

Extractions: Article #917 by Carla Helfferich This article is provided as a public service by the Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska Fairbanks, in cooperation with the UAF research community. Carla Helfferich is a science writer at the Institute. Nirendra Biswas, Professor of Geophysics at the Institute, provided the idea and illustration for this science forum. The worldwide toll of natural disasters is a heavy one. This analysis of loss was prepared by Nirendra Biswas, Professor of Geophysics at the Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska Fairbanks. Humankind seems forever threatened by natural disaster. By the tens of thousands of people die in floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and storms. Yet as soon as the flood waters recede or the volcanoes slumber, residents return to the scene. Why don't they learn? Actually, we often live in harm's way for very good reasons. What drives us to live in dangerous places lies in our species' determination to surviveand in geophysics. People range over the sea in pursuit of fish, and the sea has been swallowing fishing boats since before the dawn of history. Water bodies offer the most economical form of transport, and most vessels arrive safely at port. But some don't, and storms bred at sea or over large lakes take their toll of shoreside settlements as well.
