Typhoon Depalubos

TYPHOON
• Tropical Cyclones that develops in the

north-western part of the Pacific
Ocean between 180° and 100°E.
• In the Philippines, tropical cyclones
(typhoons) are called bagyo. The term
bagyo, a Filipino word meaning
typhoon arose after a 1911 storm in
the city of Baguio had a record rainfall
of 46 inches within a 24-hour period..

MONSOON TROUGH
This is an extension of the
Inter- Tropical Convergence
Zone where cyclonic spin
has developed. The ITCZ is
a trough is a low pressure
created by the convergence
of the northeast and
southeast trade winds.
TROPICAL UPPER
TROPOSPHERIC
TROUGH
The typical low
pressure center that
forms a typhoon
starts at the lower
levels and is warm
compared to its
environment.
FRONT
Stall over tropical
water.
A front has a cyclonic
spin associated with it.
If winds aloft become
favorable with little
wind shear, showers
and storms could
become more
numerous and cause a
typhoon to form.
MESOSCALE
CONVECTIVE
SYSTEM
These organized
clusters of storms can
move off a continental
landmass and drift over
warm waters. If they
already contain a small
vortex in the cluster,
this may make to region
even more favorable for
tropical cyclone
development.

EFFECTS OF
TYPHOON
BUILDINGS AND
INFRASTRUCTURE
The two most destructive forces
associated with typhoons are wind
and rain. According to the Green
Fun website, typhoon winds can
affect buildings and other
structures in two ways: through
direct force and through
projectiles. The heavy and
persistent rainfall that typhoons
bring can also have devastating
effects. In addition to making
homes uninhabitable, the flooding
associated with typhoons can
make roads impassable, which can
cripple rescue and aid efforts.

ECONOMICAL EFFECTS
• Different countries experience different types of natural

calamities. US are known for experiencing devastating
hurricanes while Japan is prone to earthquakes and tsunamis.
The Philippines, on the other hand, has had its fair share of
typhoons and tropical storms. Aside from Ondoy, our
country has experienced several devastating typhoons. In
the table below, we summarize some of the most financially-
damaging typhoons that our country has dealt with
EFFECT ON THE STOCK MARKET
• Aside from the economic effects of typhoons and floods, we also want to show the
effect of natural disasters on the stock market. A few days after typhoons Milenyo
and Ondoy, the PSE Index was slightly down compared to where it was before the
typhoons occurred. Similarly, the PSE Index is down 0.4 percent, on lethargic trading,
three days after the peak of the recent rains and floods.
• Natural disasters can have important
IMPACTS implications for public finance. Disasters

are likely to result in additional expenditure
and/or the partial reallocation of already
committed financial resources, with
implications for planned investment and
other expenditures. Public revenue may
FISCAL also decline as levels of economic activity
fall. In consequence, a government may face
IMPACTS increasing budgetary pressures which could
in turn increase levels of domestic and/or
external borrowing or increasing the
money supply, each, in turn, with potentially
significant knock-on effects (Benson and
Clay, 2003).

CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION
• Natural disasters, both natural and manmade, can and will occur,
often with little or no warning. It has tremendous effect not only
physically but also on the mental aspect of an individual especially
the younger ones. Disasters often strike without warning and
cause damages that limit or prevent an adequate response. We have
to commit ourselves to understanding these hazards and to
applying techniques that reduce our vulnerability. We need to
explore the feasibility of concerted scientific and engineering
efforts in reducing the loss of life and property through programs
of public education and of effective early warning system. The
development of warning systems with adequate range of
monitoring instruments for the purpose of collecting necessary
data and information for disaster evaluation is necessary for
establishing relative potential risks.
• The development of warning systems with adequate range
of monitoring instruments for the purpose of collecting
necessary data and information for disaster evaluation is
necessary for establishing relative potential risks.
Communicate knowledge for people to be aware and get
prepared on these hazards. Through public education,
introduce precautionary measures to have public awareness
on preparedness against these natural hazards. Disasters
are inevitable, predictable, and expected; we must be ready
to face them. The time has come to fully develop technology
for convenient and immediate dissemination of warning
system to the public.
