2026-10-0606 minGeography ExpertEarthquake in southern PhilippinesSend us Fan MailThe Philippines lies between several moving tectonic plates, which makes earthquakes very common. To the east, the Philippine Sea Plate is subducting, or sinking, beneath the islands. To the west, other plates and marginal seas are also pushing and sliding in complicated ways. On top of that, the country is cut by the Philippine Fault, a major strike-slip fault that helps absorb the stress.This means the region is under constant pressure. When rocks suddenly slip or break, energy is released as an earthquake. That is why the Philippines experiences so...

2026-09-1517 minGeography ExpertUnderstanding MigrationSend us Fan MailToday we're talking about something that touches almost every corner of the modern world, whether we notice it or not: human migration. Why do people leave the place they call home? And why do they choose to go where they go?Geographers usually explain this using something called the push-pull model. Push factors are the things that drive people away from home. Pull factors are the things that draw them toward a new place. And in real life, it's almost never just one or the other — it's usually both, working together. Th...

Mountains rise, oceans widen, volcanoes erupt, and earthquakes shake the ground because the outer layer of our planet is broken into moving sections called tectonic plates. These movements occur extremely slowly — usually only a few centimetres each year — yet over millions of years they completely reshape the surface of the Earth.The theory of plate tectonics is now one of the most important idea...

The influence of geology remains important but passes to a more detailed level in which’ rock type (lithology) and structure may strongly influence local relief features. In all landscapes, the critical factor is not so much the absolute resistance of a rock as its resistance relative to the rocks around it. It is this which creates the pattern of high and low relief.

They are associated with extremely low air pressure, meaning that air at the Earth’s surface is rising rather than sinking. As air rises, pressure at the surface decreases, which helps draw in surrounding air and fuels storm development. Tropical cyclones are sometimes referred to as tropical storms, hurricanes, or typhoons depending on where they form, but they are all the same type of atmospheric phenomenon.Tropical cyclones gain their energy from warm ocean water, which provides he...

2025-12-1012 minGeography ExpertAir Masses and the ITCZSend us Fan MailAir masses and the inter-tropical convergence zoneThe inter-tropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is where the trade winds converge; it is an area of uplift of air. The air that converges on the ITCZ does not have the differences in temperature and density that are typical of convergence at the polar front, and therefore there are no weather fronts. Equatorial weather, despite this, is far from placid. Heating the tropical air can cause instability and periods of heavy rainfall, which is of vital importance to some tropical regions. This rainfall occurs when...
