There's a tip on upper left of your screen telling you to kill something or to find the tornado like thing and destroy the skulls around it. Just stay calm and fight back

There is no Calamity on the Island of the Damned since upper part is supposed to be a tutorial map, you can't even summon it via the Broken Mirror. However, each floor of The Wailing Tower (the underground part of the 1st map) has its own unique mechanics like sanity loss, waves of enemies or specific objectives.

I think what they are on about is the portal world bit it's confusing as hell, 3rd level down.

There are no calamities on the first map, for the other two:
when a calamity triggers (the start of the countdown) run to a high spot of the map close to you and look around the sky for the red tornado heading to the ground.
Run to the calamity and kill the skulls floating around the calamity (before or after the count down triggers) to stop the calamity and get the rewards.
Or wait for the countdown to finish and complete the task required (killing certain enemies) which will also trigger the rewards for the calamity).

Look for the big red tornado. Unless you're planning to extract immediately run toward it and try to shoot the skulls before it gets going.
