Mark Angelo Flores Assessing the Geochemical and Mineralogical Factors for Carbon Sequestration in the Balangiga River Watershed, Eastern Samar The Balangiga River Watershed (BRW) in Eastern Samar is a relatively pristine environment bordering the Samar Island National Park (SINP). At present, several applications for mining activities are pr... SDG_12 Responsible Consumption SDG_13 Climate Action SDG_15 Life on Land Sep 9, 2025 Ongoing Research Projects
Mark Angelo Flores Balik PhD Startup Grant - Pressure-temperature-deformation-time (P-T-D-t) history and petrogenesis of Romblon metamorphic rocks: Implications for the western Philippine arc-continent collision zone This project aims to constrain the P-T-D-t history and petrogenesis of the metamorphic rocks exposed in the Romblon island group. Specific aims include determining the field, petrographic, geochemical... SDG_15 Life on Land Sep 8, 2025 Ongoing Research Projects
Jojo Garcia Preservation of the 1973 Ragay Gulf earthquake rupture in Phil-Lidar data The geometry of seismogenic faults and their rupture kinematics have implications for the potential size of earthquakes and the seismic hazard they pose (Scholz, 1972; Wells and Coppersmith, 1994; Wes...
