Abstract

This qualitative study aimed to undertake a critical examination of the models by thematic analysis to determine their contribution to disaster management. A review and analysis of the literature were used. The models were studied to explore their contribution to disaster management and to identify any significant constraints or challenges which could limit the ability of the models to carry out appropriate disaster risk reduction actions. The study found that such models are indispensable because they simplify and improve disaster management. Additionally, they may support planners, managers, and practitioners in reaching proper decisions, making them valuable and necessary decision-making support tools. The study also found that the four key phases of disaster management – mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery – constitute the basis of the majority of models. The study also showed that each model has an advantage that distinguishes it from the other models. The findings also confirmed the doubts raised about the limitations and concerns associated with the models. Concerns included future disasters’ unpredictability, the models’ prescriptive nature, and the impact on businesses. The findings also indicated that certain planners, managers, and practitioners had a limited understanding of the use of models in disaster management. As such, they appear to have overlooked the use of models while dealing with disasters. Hence, the study recommends that the models should be employed in all disaster management phases. The study also recommends that the findings are utilized as a basis for further research into the potential use of disaster management models.

Abstract

The massive tsunami of December 26, 2004 has had a huge impact on the life of the coastal region. The effects of the tsunami caused damage to occupation settlements, loss of waterside land and destruction of marine biota ecosystems. The coastal region of Aceh Province in Indonesia is the area that has the worst impact followed by the State of Malaysia, Thailand and as a coastal area of India. As a result of a large amount of coastal land experiencing a loss of land mass, erosion is very significant. As a step towards handling coastal areas from greater erosion prevention, the Government of Indonesia in 2005 adopted a policy of handling rehabilitation and reconstruction through the ANTERP (Aceh Nias Tsunami and Earthquake Response Program) program under the BRR (Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Agency) in collaboration with Ministry of Public Work. One of the steps to handling erosion is to protect the coast using the hard structure method such as the construction of a revetment and jetty made from rock armor. This study aims to assess the level of damage and priority of handling of coastal protective structures that have been built in 2009, 2016 and how changes in shoreline occur on the beach location of Alue Naga - Neuheun, which is a coastal area that was greatly affected by the tsunami. Assessments were carried out in three different coastal structures, namely CS-1 locations in the Alue Naga area, CS-2, Lambada Lhok coastal area and CS-3 Neuheun beach area. Guidelines for assessing structure damage and changes in shoreline in the study using the Ministry of Public Work Regulation No. 08/SE/M/2010. The rate of change in shoreline is obtained through computational calculations of the DSAS (Digital Shoreline Analysis System) program using the EPR (End Point Rate) method and NSM for change distance (Net Shoreline Movement).

Abstract

This study reported lightning climatology and human vulnerability to lightning in a 20 km × 20 km high-density school area in Colombo city in Sri Lanka from 1998 to 2014 using Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS) flash data of NASA’s Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM). An average annual flash density recorded over the study area was 9.43 flashes km-2 year-1. A maximum of 49% lightning flashes happened during the first inter-monsoon season. There were only 4% lightning flashes that occurred during 06.00-12.00 LT and during 18.00-24.00 LT, it was 67%, whereas 94% of lightning flashes within a day had occurred after 14.00 LT. It is recommended that, without having proper lightning hazard preventive measures, schools in the study area should avoid or minimalize scheduling their outdoor activities in high lightning risk months of April and November. Especially, after-school outdoor activities should be planned with proper safety measures during the aforementioned months as per the diurnal analysis. Moreover, May to September and December to February were the months with the least lightning risk levels. It is recommended to follow the proposed five-level lightning safety guideline which includes, schedule outdoor activities by considering the variation of lightning activities, follow the 30-30 rule whenever required, avoid staying at the most hazardous locations which are vulnerable to lightning accidents, crouching action if required and providing first-aid whenever necessary. Not only for the Sri Lankan context but also the study is crucial and highly applicable for all schools and other institutes especially in other tropical countries.

Abstract

For over two decades (1998, 2008, 2019), floods have occurred in Samarinda in various intensities and different areas. In Bengkuring, flooding has submerged houses for days since 2008. It happens for days with an average depth of 0.5-1 meter. Flooding can cause minor, moderate, and severe damage or destruction of homes, property, and community disorders. People whose homes are submerged by floods make some adaptations to mitigate. Some modifications are to create a small barrier in front of the house, raise the floor, and repair waterways. Safe space is crucial during floods, especially in a one-story house. This study aims to improve the form of adaptation in residential homes in flood-prone areas. Similarly, the objective is to modify the interior to create a safe space for goods and occupants. The method of data analysis is based on Space Syntax Analysis J-Graphs. Occasionally, J-Graphs can efficiently explain interior modifications, including the ratio and layer of safe spaces, the number of indoor and outdoor connecting rooms, and the ring configuration. Through the design approach and prototype demonstration, it is possible to install interior modifications by making mezzanine floors and utilizing the attic. Although most previous research on building adaptation focused on home construction, home interior modification promises advantages that will result in a more straightforward and workable project for the community's needs.

Abstract

The paper aims to explore the social and economic factors influencing the flood preparedness of Zhengzhou, China and Leeds, United Kingdom residents. As one of the chosen areas, Zhengzhou experienced a terrible flood with an inaccurate weather forecast and little pre-flood preparedness in July 2021. On the other hand, Leeds has a long history of frequent floods. Wetter winters and stormy weather caused by climate change led to increased floods in Leeds. The consistent seasonal floods keep damaging residents and their properties, leading to economic losses. The authors conducted semi-structured interviews with residents who experienced floods in Zhengzhou and Leeds. Comparative parameters included economic and social, as these factors are hugely different in the study areas. The results showed that factors like education influence the households’ flood preparedness; likewise, economic factors like disposable income also affect the willingness of residents to spend on flood preparedness. Furthermore, the results revealed that with proactive flood management, both communities progressed in minimising the post-adverse effects of floods.

Abstract

Volcanic eruption is one of the phenomena that can change the volcanic landscape drastically. Monitoring of volcanic edifices after eruptions should be considered to further understand the potential hazards in the future. Satellite monitoring is a reliable technique for assessing deformation in a volcano. InSAR was applied to detect material build-up after the eruption phase of Semeru Volcano in December 2022. As a consequence of the opening crater along with the InSAR result, a lahar product after the eruption was deposited in the southwest direction. Significant deformations were indicated by PS-InSAR near the crater, which was characterized by a LOS displacement of -10 to -40 mm/year, indicating scouring of the pyroclastic material moving down the slope.  The accumulation of pyroclastic flows from the abrading process below was detected in the proximal zone of Semeru, as shown by the positive LOS displacement ranging from 10 to 40 mm/year. The field survey conforms to the PS InSAR results, where unconsolidated material, ranging in size from gravel to boulders, piles up approximately 4-5 m in Curah Kobokan.  Highly unconsolidated material tends to move easily by water and threaten the surrounding settlements. Overlying PS InSAR and drainage pattern in the flank of Semeru, concluding several locations that have a high-risk potential of being affected by lahar flows are Curah Kobokan, Supiturang Village, Pronojiwo District, then Tulungrejo, Pasropan Village, Pasrujambe District, Lumajang Regency.

Abstract

Landslide is a natural phenomenon that often occurs as a disaster in Kulon Progo Region. This research is located in Pengasih and Sentolo District, Kulon Progo. The aim of the study is landslide risk mapping in the research area. The landslide risk map has 3 parameters, such as potential landslide condition, vulnerable situations, and community capacity to cope with the landslide disaster. Potential landslide obtained from Geographic Information System (GIS )overlay analysis using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) consists of 4 sub-parameters: slope gradient (55.49%), geological condition (25.16%), stream density (9.67%), land use (9.67%). The vulnerability was obtained from 3 sub-parameters, such as economic vulnerability (33.33%), infrastructure vulnerability (33.34%), and population density (33.33%). The community capacity in the research area was obtained from The activity of the Region Disaster Management Authority (BPBD) of Kulon Progo to strengthen community awareness to cope with landslide disasters, such as socialization about landslides and simulation during an emergency landslide. The input in overlay analysis used GIS for the parameters are all sub-parameters from each parameter. Landslide risk map obtained from overlay analysis using GIS based on landslide potential map, vulnerability map, and capacity map. The result is that Pengasih and Sentolo Districts have low to moderate landslide risk conditions. Several landslides occur in each landslide risk zone.

Abstract

Palabuhanratu Village is one of the villages in Sukabumi, West Java, that is susceptible to earthquake and tsunami risks. This research intends to revise the tsunami hazard map, undertake a spatial analysis of the distribution of evacuation sites, and identify optimal tsunami evacuation routes. The tsunami hazard map was updated using tsunami modeling with COMCOT based on the worst-case scenario of potential magnitude moment 8.8 for the Megathrust segment in the south of West Java from PuSGeN. This modeling was used to predict the worst probable tsunami impact. On the basis of field survey data regarding the location of evacuation sites, evaluation of the distribution of evacuation sites was conducted. In addition, service area analysis is utilized to assess the service area of the present evacuation site in relation to each hamlet in Palabuhanratu village. Approximately 57.33 percent of the town could be affected by a tsunami, according to the findings of this study. The greatest tsunami height along the coast is expected to be between 18 and 22 meters, and the arrival time is 22 minutes. From a total of 35 hamlets, we determined that two hamlets in the Palabuhanratu village area were not harmed by the tsunami. Because not everyone can reach the evacuation location in time, the findings of this study show the need for an additional vertical evacuation site.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has weakened various business sectors, including the construction services business. This research aims to identify OHS risks in building construction projects during the Covid-19 pandemic, provide an assessment and provide control solutions for these risks. The research method begins with identifying risk factors and distributing risk assessment questionnaires to thirty building construction companies. Then determine the risk rating with the Relative Importance Index (RII) and the risk category using the AS/NZS 4360:2004 standard. The risk control questionnaire was finally distributed to three selected respondents, including a director, a project manager, and an OHS manager, all of whom have at least an undergraduate degree. Based on the analysis, it is found that there is a similarity in the ranking of risk factors from the calculation of the RII value and the AS/NZS 4360:2004 standard, indicating that there is a positive and significant relationship between these two methods. The top three risk factors based on RII are: Covid-19 spread, falling from a height, and being electrocuted. Based on the AS/NZS 4360:2004 standard, these three factors are considered high and moderate risk, while the risk control solutions are: comply with and implement health protocols, use PPE, strong/sturdy scaffolding, install safety nets, arranging safe electrical lines, conduct socialization, and educate workers about Covid-19.

Abstract

Based on the National Disaster Management Agency, there was an increase in the total number of disasters from 2020 to 2022, which was initially 1,296 to 5402 disasters, with the highest percentage of disaster events being flood disasters with the highest frequency being in the West Java and DKI Jakarta areas (BNPB, 2022). The high frequency of floods that occur in the West Java region can certainly increase economic losses that are pretty high. On the other hand, West Java Province also contributes the third most significant national GDP. The sector that contributes the most to West Java's GRDP is the processing industry sector (BPS, 2017). Karawang Regency is one of West Java's destination areas for industrial development. In Karawang Regency, industrial areas are developing quite rapidly and are concentrated in the southern part of Karawang Regency (Telukjambe Barat, Telukjambe Timur, Ciampel, Pangkalan, Klari, and Cikampek districts). However, based on research conducted by the ITB Climate Change Center (2022), several points have a relatively high level of flood hazard in the area. That can bring considerable losses if the disaster occurs in an industrial area, so an analysis of losses due to flooding is needed at the location of the existing industrial site, which is currently in Karawang Regency. Therefore, this research was conducted to determine the condition of existing industrial land in flood-prone areas and to find predictions of economic losses that will be obtained in the event of a flood disaster on existing industrial land today. The research used secondary data in shapefiles (.shp) maps of Karawang Regency, planning documents, and related journals. Then, the analysis method that will be carried out is mapping disaster-prone areas in industrial estates and predicting economic losses due to flood disasters which will be carried out with a Geographic Information System (GIS). Based on the results of the analysis, it was found that 34.69% of the existing industrial land is located in flood-prone areas, which are predicted to impact the economic losses of IDR 65,049,705,681,272,-. That shows a need for a flood mitigation plan and the suitability of proper allocation of industrial estates to reduce the possibility of economic losses to be borne by the government.
