    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ScholarsArchive@OSU IIFET 2008 Vietnam Proceedings COMMUNITY PERCEPTION TOWARDS A SET BACK AREA : A CASE STUDY IN GALLE DISTRICT, SRI LANKA DILANTHI KORALAGAMA, UNIVERSITY OF RUHUNA, [email protected] ABSTRACT In view of the coastal areas, vulnerability to natural hazards particularly tsunami, earthquakes, etc, are rather increasing. The tsunami, giant tidal waves struck on 26th of December 2004 caused severe damage to people and their livelihood. It is now felt that the country should enforce a regulation procedure to manage the coastal zone. This addresses the concept of a set back area in order to mitigate the severity of natural disasters. But, the promulgation of set back area should be account for community perception. Hence, this study was aimed to assess the community perception, possible constraints, and to extract criteria to demarcate a set back area in the littoral. The study was carried out in Galle district, in Southern Sri Lanka, which is one of the districts greatly affected by the tsunami. Three divisional secretariat (DS) divisions viz; Habaraduwa, Hikkaduwa and Galle were selected. Simple random sampling was used to select 120 households. Primary data were gleaned using a pre-tested questionnaire. Informal discussions were held with coastal dwellers, government officers, &etc. The data were analyzed and evaluated to assess the objectives. Accordingly, 54 percent of the community is involved in activities based on fisheries and tourism. The rest 46 percent are engaged in other activities, which are non-stationed in the coastal zone. More than 80 percent households of the area are vulnerable for natural disasters.

  • Current Characteristics of Salinity Stratification of Two Coastal Lagoons in Southern Area of Sri Lanka After Different Human Interventions
    ACEPS - 2013 Current characteristics of salinity stratification of two coastal lagoons in southern area of Sri Lanka after different human interventions E. Furusato 1, G.L. Perera 1, N. Tanaka 1,2 , G. P. Amarasekara 3 and T. Priyadarshana 3 1Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Saitama University 255 Shimo-Okubo, Sakura-ku, Saitama 338-8570 JAPAN 2 Institute for Environmental Science & Technology, Saitama University 255 Shimo-Okubo, Sakura-ku, Saitama 338-8570 JAPAN 3 Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences & Technology, University of Ruhuna Wellamadama, Matara (81000), Sri Lanka E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Field investigations were conducted to estimate the present state of density stratification of Koggala Lagoon and Rekawa Lagoon, Sri Lanka. The variation of salinity, water temperature and dissolved oxygen were measured vertically at different tidal conditions and rainy seasons. For both lagoons, salinity stratification occurred in not only lagoon but also inflow stream and lagoon mouth. Furthermore, the stratification was measured in mainly rainy season for both lagoons. On the other hand several temporal and spatial characteristics, such as salinity level, area of strong stratification and the reason of the seasonal difference of stratification, were contrastive for each lagoon. These depend on the inherent difference of hydrological characteristics of each lagoon, recently intensified by human intervention conducted in mouth area for both lagoons. Conceptual model has been constructed for the hydraulic characteristics of each lagoon related to the salinity stratification as the basis for the future quantitative analysis. Keywords: seasonal difference, tidal effects, inflow stream, conceptual model. 1. INTRODUCTION Water environment in Sri Lanka is recently under pressure with the rapid development activities and more concern is needed with respect to environmental resources preservation.
