Pinatubo on 14 June 1991 DATE EVENT MONITORING AND SURVEYS 2 APRIL Small eruption of steam and ash covers villages 10 km away. Seismographs installed on mountain, Volcanic Observatory set up. GOVERNMENT ACTION 23 May Volcanic hazard map results from surveys. Throughout May seismographs record 1800 small earthquakes 2–6km deep, 5km north west of summit. Hazard map distributed by Government. 13–28 May SO2 concentrations increase x10. 5 levels of alert published: 1 = low level unrest 5 = eruption underway 1 June Eruptions change to new focus – less than 5km deep. Small explosion and then ash eruptions, harmonic tremors suggest magma ascent. 3 June Small explosion and then ash eruptions, harmonic tremors suggest magma ascent. 5 June Alert level 3 – eruption within a fortnight. Areas threatened by nuées ardentes (pyroclastic flows) evacuated. 6 June Tiltmeter near summit indicates bulge in volcano 7 June Column of ash and steam up to 8km in height. 8 June Magma reaches surface. Alert level 4 (explosive eruption in 24 hours). 9 June Alert level 5 – evacuation of all inhabitants within 20km of summit 12 June Two major eruptions. 08.51 major eruption sends column of gas, ash up to 19km in height. 14 June Eruptions up to 40km in height. Observations now difficult because of ash clouds. 15 June Eruptions of increasing intensity. Nuées ardentes (pyroclastic flows) frequent. Ash widley deposited – made heavy by rain from Typhoon Yunga. Seismographs destroyed. © UCLES 2004 Evacuation zone extended to 30km from summit.

A donation to a project, health centre or school is a more constructive way to help. • You will be accepted and welcomed if you follow local customs. Use only your right hand for eating and greeting. It is polite to use both hands when giving or receiving gifts. • Respect for local etiquette earns you respect loose, light weight clothes are preferable to revealing shorts, skimpy tops and tight fitting action wear. Hand holding or kissing in public are disliked by local people. • Visitors who value local traditions encourage local pride and maintain local cultures - please help local people gain a realistic view of life in your country. Be patient, friendly and sensitive! Remember - you are a guest! © UCLES 2004 9696/02,03 Insert M/J04 9 Fig. 9 for Question 15 Countries experiencing change in average income per person MEDCs Asia North Africa & the Middle East Eastern Europe & the CIS Latin America & the Caribbean Sub-Saharan Africa 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 number of countries where average income per person 1990-1995 was lower than before © UCLES 2004 0 0 9696/02,03 Insert M/J04 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 number of countries where average income per person 1990-1995 was higher than before 10 BLANK PAGE 9696/02,03 Insert M/J04 11 BLANK PAGE 9696/02,03 Insert M/J04 12 BLANK PAGE University of Cambridge International Examinations is part of the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES) which is itself a department of the University of Cambridge. 9696/02,03 Insert M/J04
