Research laboratory at the National Institute of Geological Sciences, University of the Philippines Diliman focused on geomorphology and active tectonics
Dr. Noelynna Ramos presented (oral) their research on the tectonic geomorphology and characteristics of the West llocos Fault System (Philippine Fault Zone) in the eastern Solsona Basin.
ATM: Ms. Motol (geology graduate student) presents a case study on the impacts of dredging on coastal erosion.
