Philippine institute of volcanology and seismology
The PHIVOLCS Magnitude Scale is a local magnitude scale developed by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) for measuring the size of earthquakes specifically in the Philippines. It is similar to the Richter scale but is calibrated to account for local geology and seismic waves. The scale provides a numerical value that quantifies the energy released by an earthquake.
The word "petrology" originated from the Greek words "petra" meaning rock and "logos" meaning study or science. It refers to the branch of geology that focuses on the study of rocks.
In science, crust typically refers to the outermost layer of a planet. For Earth, the crust is the solid outermost shell composed of rock and minerals. Crusts on other planets or moons may vary in composition and thickness.
Any of several essentially geologic sciences that are concerned with the origin, structure, and physical phenomena of the earth is called earth science while life science normally deals with biology, medicine, anthropology, or ecology, that deals with living organisms and their organization, life processes, and relationships to each other and their environment. Earth Science usually studies about the life/age of our planet meaning the origin, the structure/ composition. It is more likely similar to life science due to the extent that the main objective of the study is about "life". Likewise, both sciences have concerns about the "life" or their origin.
Earth science is a branch of physical science that focuses on the study of the Earth's processes, materials, and systems. Physical science, on the other hand, is a broad field that encompasses the study of non-living matter and natural phenomena, including physics, chemistry, and Earth science. Earth science is a subset of physical science that specifically examines the Earth and its interactions with the environment.

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) is responsible for monitoring and studying earthquakes, volcanic activity, and tsunamis in the Philippines. It provides timely information and warnings to help mitigate potential disasters and protect the public.
The role of PHIVOLCS is to predict the accurance of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes in the Philippines
