GeographyLocationSitum is located {{convert|20|km}} north-east of Lae, on Singaua Road across the Busu river and over the Bupu River causeway. It is {{convert|170|m}} above sea level. Geology{{See also|List of earthquakes in Papua New Guinea}}The area around Situm is located on the Pacific Ring of Fire and geologic instability has produced numerous faults, resulting in earthquakes.[1][2] Situm sits between the larger Indo-Australian Plate and the Pacific Plate on the South Bismarck Plate in the Ramu-Markham Fault Zone where the New Guinea Highlands Deforming Zone and South Bismarck tectonic plates are converging at up to {{convert|50|mm}}/yr and the seismic hazard is significant.[3] The Ramu-Markham Fault Zone, which follows the northern edge of the Markham Valley, is the active plate boundary between the South Bismarck Plate and terranes within the New Guinea Highlands Deforming Zone. The Ramu-Markham Fault Zone has generated large thrust earthquakes (e.g. the 6 April 1999 MW 6.4, {{convert|16|km}} north of Lae, near Hobu, and the 22 November 2007 MW 6.8, {{convert|110|km}} north of Lae). Geological evidence suggests that major earthquakes in pre-historic times have occurred in this area,[4] and that there is the potential for another large earthquake to occur anytime within the next 100 years.[3][4][5] Tectonic studySitum is the location of a geodetic monitoring site which aims to monitor the tectonic motion of Papua New Guinea.[6] The site ID is 'SITU' and is monitored by the Geodynamics group and the University of California.[7] HistoryWorld War IISitum is located to the north of the beaches where the Australian 7th Division carried out an amphibious landing in September 1943, as part of plans to capture Lae from the Japanese during the Salamaua–Lae campaign. During that campaign and the subsequent advance into the Finisterre Range, the locals assisted the Allied troops and after the war, the Australian 7th Division AIF Association helped construct a school at Situm in 1964 as a thank you.[8] SettlementsBefore the establishment of the Situm and Gobari settlements, the area was covered in rainforest and patches of Kunai grass. At the beginning of field research in 1968, Situm consisted of 22 blocks. Among the Situm settlers there were 16 block holders [9] involved in cattle [10] and pig production.[11] Settlers also harvest coconuts from plantations.[12] ClimateRainfall in Situm has been recorded at 4000mm per year.[13] {{wide image|7thDiv.jpg|1000px|Panoramic photo of Situm Community. Health centre on right and 7th Australian Division Memorial School on left}}DemographicsCommunityIn October 2013, a Health Foundation team has conducted a three-day workshop in Situm village, which attracted a total of 63 participants (30 females and 33 males) and allowed women and men to learn about sexual health issues and strengthen their relationship.[14] In July 2013, the Rotary Club of Lae delivered a 5KVA generator to Situm School, and four Tuffa Tanks to the Situm Medical Centre and plumbing hardware to the Situm Health Centre.[15] In 2009, the World Health Organization reported cholera cases in the village of Situm. In Morobe Province settlements of East Taraka, Uniblock, Situm, Nawae Block, Salamander Tais, 12 Mile, Bumayong, Tanam, 6 Mile, 1 Mile, Talair Compound and 2nd street were affected.[16] This is the first confirmed cholera outbreak since the 1960s and PNG officials fear it will further burden their struggling health system.[17] The prevalence of enteric diseases remains high in PNG where access to safe drinking water is limited, particularly in rural areas where an estimated 87% of the population lives.[18]{{efn|See also [19]}} EconomyBanana chipsSitum women are producing dried banana chips for production as a popular snack.[20][21] TaroIn the 1940s Taro Leaf Blight caused by Phytophthora colocasiae was estimated to cause up to 50% loss in production. In 1993, a National Taro breeding program, with the focus on breeding Taro varieties resistant varieties, commenced.[22] By 2000 Situm farmers had given up planting Taro (Colocasia esculenta Schott) because of taro beetles from the genera Papuana and Eucopidocaulus.[23] Recreational fishingThe Situm Primary School has been described as one of the best fishing or outdoors adventure locations in the regions of Asia/Pacific.[24] {{wide image|Situmschool1.jpg|800px|7th Australian Division Memorial School, Situm}}CultureIn 2004, three members from Situm formed a bank called Lungstar of Morobe and have had their debut album recorded and released with the A20 Productions Studio of Barakau.[25] Situm Primary SchoolIn May 2008, Evangelical Lutheran Church of PNG leader, the late Bishop Doctor Wesley Kigasung, was laid to rest at his Aluki village in Bukawa, Morobe province. What was described as one of the most-moving scenes, Situm primary school, children sang a touching tribute to Dr Kigasung which brought tears to the eyes of those in the motorcade.[26] {{Portal|Papua New Guinea}}References1. ^{{cite web|last=USGS|title=Seismic Hazard Map|url=https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/png/seismicity.php|accessdate=28 February 2014|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100728225225/http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/png/seismicity.php|archivedate=28 July 2010|df=}} 2. ^{{cite web|last=Earthquake Track|title=Recent Earthquake Near New Guinea, Papua New Guinea|url=http://earthquaketrack.com/r/new-guinea-papua-new-guinea/recent|accessdate=28 February 2014}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|last=43rd Association of Surveyors PNG Congress, Lae|title=Lae, a City caught between two plates – 15 years of Deformation Measurements with GPS|url=http://www.quickclose.com.au/LaeDeformation.pdf|work=Focus On Challenges;
