  • Why Is the Need for Finding Flood Level Elevations?
    Calculation of water surface elevation using HECRAS 4.1.0 for fixing tailrace elevation for powerhouse site in planned 37 MW Kabeli “A” Hydroelectric Project, Nepal April, 2012 6/25/2012 Surendra Raj Pathak Why is the need for finding flood level elevations? • To find out water surface elevations at different flood frequencies. • To find out design water level to safeguard all costly engineering structures from flood damage which is probable sometime in future. • To fix the tailwater elevation. As head (energy) relates to increase in revenue in hydroelectricity, small increment in head has a huge impact in overall project financial health in a long run. Earthwork excavation incurs huge part of powerhouse cost initially. There has to be optimized tailwater elevation by analyzing between increase in project revenue from head increment vs. initial earthwork excavation cost.

Following this page are the signed adoption resolutions of the County and all participating jurisdictions that have adopted this plan, authorizing municipal government staff to carry out the actions detailed herein. Signed resolutions of adoption by all participating jurisdictions shall be inserted following this page after FEMA has reviewed and determined that the Draft plan is approvable. It is recommended that municipalities in Jefferson County consider using the Sample Adoption Resolution from the FEMA Region 2 “Hazard Mitigation Plan Development Tool Kit CD”, as shown below. Failure of any participating jurisdiction to ultimately adopt the plan and provide their adoption resolution to FEMA will result in a determination from FEMA that such jurisdiction has not successfully met the requirements of DMA 2000 and that the community does not have a plan “in place”.

  • Figure 3-192 Presents Historical Earthquake Epicenters Spatially
    Figure 3-192 presents historical earthquake epicenters spatially across the Northeast, illustrating and indicating, through areas of historical earthquake groupings, a generally higher incidence and magnitude of earthquakes. Historical earthquake occurrence as presented on Figure 3-192 also supports previous discussion which identified the areas of the state: northeast, southeast, and far western sections as having a higher seismic risk according to the % PGA and SA maps. Figure 3-192 was prepared by the GIS section of NY SEMO using NYS Geological Survey; National Institute of Building Sciences data. Figure 3-192 an Excerpt figure from the NYCEM 2nd Year Technical Report 1999-2000, Figure 1.2—Earthquakes of New England and Adjacent Regions (1638-1995)11, 11 Seismic Event Serve at Massachusetts Institute of Technology Earth Resources Laboratory(SEASAME), Cambridge, MA, 1999., demonstrates the historical existence of the earthquake hazard in eastern NY. Figure 3-193 was obtained from the Lamont-Doherty Cooperative Seismographic Network, and portrays earthquake events that have occurred between 1990 and 2003. Figure 3-193 Earthquake Events from 1990-2003 In addition, there have been multiple earthquakes originating outside New York's borders that have been felt within the State. These quakes have come from Quebec, Canada and Massachusetts. Such events are considered significant for hazard mitigation planning because they could produce damage within the State in certain situations.

  • Climate Change Is Happening
    CLIMATE 2009 CHANGE SCIENCE COMPENDIUM Managing Editor: Catherine P. McMullen Associate Editor: Jason Jabbour Foreword The science has become more irrevocable than ever: Climate change is happening. The evidence is all around us. And unless we act, we will see catastrophic consequences including rising sea levels, droughts and famine, and the loss of up to a third of the world’s plant and animal species. We need a new global agreement to tackle climate change, and this must be based on the soundest, most robust and up-to-date science available. Through its overview of the latest definitive science, this Climate Change Science Compendium reaffirms the strong evidence outlined in the IPCC’s 4th Assessment Report that climate change is continuing apace. In fact, this report shows that climate change is accelerating at a much faster pace than was previously thought by scientists. New scientific evidence suggests important tipping points, leading to irreversible changes in major Earth systems and ecosystems, may already have been reached or even overtaken. Climate change, more than any other challenge facing the world today, is a planetary crisis that will require strong, focused global action. As pressures build for an internationally agreed response, we now have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to come together and address climate change through a newly invigorated multilateralism. This will be our chance to put in place a climate change agreement that all nations can embrace – an agreement that is equitable, balanced and comprehensive. This Climate Change Science Compendium is a wake-up call. The time for hesitation is over.

  • The Impacts of Climate and Climate Change on Aviation in the Canadian North
    The Impacts of Climate and Climate Change on Aviation in the Canadian North by Andrew Chi Wai Leung A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences University of Toronto © Copyright by Andrew Chi Wai Leung 2019 The Impacts of Climate and Climate Change on Aviation in the Canadian North Andrew Chi Wai Leung Doctor of Philosophy Department of Physical and Environmental Science University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Aviation is inherently linked to meteorology as severe weather is often responsible for flight delays, cancellations and sometimes accidents. Climate change is expected to change the Arctic environment and the warming rate in this region is greater than most locations on Earth. With a changing climate, the risks of flying will also be changing. In Canada, many Arctic communities in Hudson Bay, Nunavik in northern Quebec and western Labrador rely heavily on aviation to transport passengers, mail and groceries because they lack road networks or railway to access larger settlements and shipping is limited to brief periods in summer. Using historical hourly and daily climate data, this thesis examines four topics related to flying: 1) wind pattern changes (1971 to 2010) at seven locations around Hudson Bay, northern Quebec and western Labrador; 2) fog and visibility trends at 16 Hudson Bay communities (1953-2014); 3) historic long-term soil temperature trends at 5 to 150 cm depths and future projections under three greenhouse gas concentration

  • Public Health Humanitarian Responses to Natural Disasters
    PUBLIC HEALTH HUMANITARIAN RESPONSES TO NATURAL DISASTERS The pressure of climate change, environmental degradation, and urbanisation, as well as the widening of socio- economic disparities have rendered the global popu- lation increasingly vulnerable to the impact of natural disasters. With a primary focus on medical and public health humanitarian response to disasters, Public Health Humanitarian Responses to Natural Disasters provides a timely critical analysis of pub- lic health responses to natural disasters. Using a number of case studies and examples of innovative disaster response mea- sures developed by international agencies and stakeholders, this book illustrates how theoretical understanding of public health issues can be practically applied in the context of humanitarian relief response. Starting with an introduction to pub- lic health principles within the context of medical and public health disaster and humanitarian response, the book goes on to explore key trends, threats and chal- lenges in contemporary disaster medical response. This book provides a comprehensive overview of an emergent discipline and offers a unique multidisciplinary perspective across a range of relevant topics including the concepts of disaster preparedness and resilience, and key challenges in human health needs for the twenty- fi rst century. This book will be of interest to students of public health, disaster and emergency medicine and development studies, as well as to development and medical practitioners working within NGOs, development agencies, health authorities and public administration. Emily Ying Yang Chan is a professor and assistant dean at The Chinese Univer- sity of Hong Kong (CUHK) Faculty of Medicine and visiting professor of public health medicine at the Oxford University Nuffi eld Department of Medicine.

  • Overview of Reviewer Comments Requiring Manuscript Revision Source Localisation/Match Field Processing
    Overview of reviewer comments requiring manuscript revision Source localisation/match field processing Comment from Referee 1 “I feel that the events location method used in the paper is very similar to the Match Field Processing (MFP) described by Sergent et al. (2020) (adapted from previous sources). The advantage of the MFP is that its methodology is clearly defined both theoretically and practically. It is also quite adaptive with several tunings that can make it very high resolution. I wonder why the authors did not try this approach with their arrays which are very well designed for that. Could you comment on that and perhaps compare the different methods?” Author Response This was a useful comment from the reviewer. We had not considered the MFP technique in this context initially, having been motivated to develop a method that is completely blind to specification of the velocity structure of the study site. We have now tested the specific MFP implementation described in Walter et. al. (2015) that is also referred to in Sergeant et al. (2020). In our implementation, we omit the ensemble averaging over multiple seismic noise windows since we are dealing with large amplitude, distinct microseismic events. Similarly to Walter et. al. (2015), we neglect amplitude information and match only the wave phase. The additional constraint provided by specifying a model of the medium velocity means that the MFP method performs very well. Azimuth and range localisation was very reliable for highly idealised synthetic test data, when the medium velocity was accurately specified. We used the dominant A0 mode trend to specify the dispersion curve of the medium.
