Abstract

This paper aims to seek a deeper understanding of the intention to use Virtual Reality (VR)/ Augmented Reality (AR) to strengthen disaster risk reduction using the technology acceptance model (TAM) among people at risk of a tsunami. Kuta, Bali, Indonesia, was selected as a case study due to its high tsunami risk and dense tourism activities. Data is collected by interviewing 148 households living along the coast who were selected purposively based on the hazard map of the tsunami and the location of tsunami drills in the past, including the proportion of migrants and non-migrants. Studies show that technology is needed to better prepare for future tsunami risks. Despite having experience in tsunami drills, understanding evacuation routes still needs to improve. People perceived VR/AR could provide integrated knowledge and information about tsunamis, including evacuation routes and shelters. Moreover, the VR/AR technology is also perceived to complement existing knowledge and information about coastal protection generated from ecosystem services. The result shows that the intention to use VR/AR is described by the perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Significant differences appear among different age groups and are not merely based on migrant's status. This study has an essential impact on policymakers, particularly in proposing the implementation of VR/AR to plan disaster risk reduction effectively.

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 NASAs 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

Changes in transportation trends can occur during and after COVID-19, such as travel distance, trip, and choice of transportation mode. The positive benefits from these changes in transportation trends should be maintained, to reduce disaster risk of environmental hazards from the CO2 emissions. Research on changes in mobility, trips, and CO2 emissions during and after COVID-19 in Indonesia is still very limited; whereas, changes in these transportation variables can be an inspiration for determining sustainable transportation policies in the future. This study aims to compare amid COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 transportation variablestravel distances, trips, and associated CO2 emissions. This research was conducted by giving questionnaires to 400 participants in Aceh Besar District. The questionnaire contains questions regarding the distance traveled, trips, fuel spent, and socio-economic characteristics. The CO2 emissions were calculated using IPCC (2006). The travel distance, trips, and transportation-related CO2 emissions during and after COVID-19 were compared respectively based on statistics. The results showed that there were significant differences in travel distances, trips, and transportation-related CO2 emissions between COVID-19 and the post-COVID-19 situation in the District of Aceh Besar. This article also presents several recommendations based on the data analysis results linked to literature studies about the sustainability of transportation as a result of COVID-19 situation; those are: providing quality public transportation, considering teleworking, providing solutions for workers who do not have access to online work, and paying attention to increasing use of private cars and car sharing post COVID-19.

Abstract

Due to geographical locations, the Southwestern coastal region of Bangladesh is frequently experiencing climate change induced disasters such as cyclones, floods, and tidal surges. However, local communities at this region have a long history of coping with the adverse effects of these disasters. Consequently, this research assessed the social vulnerability towards natural disasters through local peoples perception and identified the existing immediate response against natural disasters at Kazirchar village in Muladi Upazila of Barishal district of the coastal region. In this study, a well-structured questionnaire survey, and focus group discussions were conducted to collect primary data. The collected data were processed and analysed to present the existing impacts of natural disasters. Besides, the immediate responses were categorized into different sectors. The study found that, the most prevalent coastal disaster in Kazirchar village was cyclone. About 48% of surveyed respondents opined that high cost of living was the main reason for increasing the vulnerability towards disasters. To adapt with disaster impacts, 58% respondents of this village need to travel long distances to collect drinking water. On the other hand, during flood, 26% people took shelter on government-owned high lands, whereas 40% shifted temporarily to their neighbors who are living in house with a high land elevation. This research concludes that the village has a low prior preparedness against various disasters, less knowledge about disaster, less coordination and poor collaboration between government organization (GOs) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) regarding disaster risk reduction. It is expected that this study will act as a source of information for taking natural disaster management initiatives and the findings of this study will push the policy makers to develop and implement long term adaptation strategies in coastal areas of Bangladesh particularly in Barishal district.

Abstract

Indonesia is the largest archipelago country in the world located at the confluence of four tectonic plates. This condition makes Indonesia potentially and become vulnerable to natural hazard that have a significant impact and reach various sectors. One of the impacts of natural hazard that occurred in Indonesia is the education sector. This natural hazard has an impact on the physical building of schools and also hinders the process of teaching and learning, causing trauma, and even fatalities at school. The Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) through the Community Preparedness (COMPRESS) program inaugurated disaster preparedness education at the school community level. In 2008, LIPI began implementing disaster risk reduction by developing a model of disaster preparedness schools. Then LIPI published Guidelines for Implementing Disaster Preparedness Schools in 2013. This guide does not yet have a specific Knowledge and Attitude category and can be used as a reference. Therefore, the development of the Disaster Preparedness School Implementation Manual needs to be done. The development of this measuring instrument was analysed by compiling a comparison matrix using the AHP method so as to produce a new development system from the Knowledge and Attitude assessment category. This study produced 3 sub-categories of Knowledge and Attitude assessment, namely (1) Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Teaching and Learning Disasters with a weight of 33%, (2) Knowledge about Disasters and Disaster Management with a weight of 43%, and (3) Knowledge Access About Disasters and Disaster Management with a weighting of 24%. Such approach can be used in advancement of others variables of measuring tool for school preparedness.

Abstract

Tides are the dominant physical process in the coastal environment. During high tide, water from the ocean flows through the bays and estuaries, causing inundation and raising water elevation. When low tides condition, the water level becomes lower than average and recedes into the sea. This process continues for a long day. Tsunami waves will interact with all coastal processes and affect the hydrodynamic forces of tsunami waves. In the deep sea, tides do not significantly influence wave propagation. However, in the shallow water zone, tides can change tsunami heights and affect the extent of inundation. Tides are usually ignored in tsunami hazard analysis. This would be an underestimate of the tsunami hazard calculation. This study aims to investigate tides' influence on tsunami runup hydrodynamics in Banda Aceh. The potential tsunami from an earthquake in the Aceh-Andaman subduction zone is modeled using COMCOT (Cornell Multi Grid Coupled Tsunami Model) with magnitudes Mw 9.2, 8.6, and 8.2. We simulated the response of the three earthquake magnitudes on two different types of high and low tides. Several virtual gauges were placed to observe the tsunami height. Virtual gauges were also used to observe the tsunami arrival time at four tsunami escape buildings in Banda Aceh: the Ulee Lheue escape building, the Deah Glumpang escape building, the Alue Deah Teungoh escape building, and the Lambung escape building. The results show that the highest tide amplifies the tsunami inundation will be extended to about 30% farther inland compared to the condition if the tsunami occur during mean sea level condition.The interactions between tsunami and high tide significantly shorten tsunami arrival time on small magnitude tsunamis and are not significant in a large tsunami. This information is useful for enhancing early warning systems and evacuation procedures that can be adjusted to the tidal conditions in the study area.

Abstract

Disasters caused by natural hazards may harm the health sector. It needs physician preparedness as a significant step in disaster risk reduction efforts and is expected to obtain an adequate response when a disaster occurs. This study aimed to determine the level of physician preparedness at the public health center (PHC) to face a tsunami caused by an earthquake based on the vulnerability zones. This research method is observational analytic with a cross-sectional design using a questionnaire developed by LIPI-UNESCO/ISDR adjusted to the core competencies and sub-competencies for disaster medicine and public health. The samples were collected in total sampling. The results show that most respondents have a preparedness index with categories almost prepare and not prepare, each of 12 respondents from a total of 42 people who participated in this study (28.56%). The physician from zone III has the best preparedness, and the physician from zone I are at least prepared for disasters. Statistical analysis using the Kruskal Wallis test obtained p-value 0.646 (p 0.05). The conclusion was found that there was no significant difference between the levels of physician preparedness at the PHC facing tsunami disasters based on the tsunami vulnerability zone in Banda Aceh.
