  • Spatial Variability of Rainfall Trends in Sri Lanka from 1989 to 2019 As an Indication of Climate Change
    International Journal of Geo-Information Article Spatial Variability of Rainfall Trends in Sri Lanka from 1989 to 2019 as an Indication of Climate Change Niranga Alahacoon 1,2,* and Mahesh Edirisinghe 1 1 Department of Physics, University of Colombo, Colombo 00300, Sri Lanka; [email protected] 2 International Water Management Institute (IWMI), 127, Sunil Mawatha, Pelawatte, Colombo 10120, Sri Lanka * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Analysis of long-term rainfall trends provides a wealth of information on effective crop planning and water resource management, and a better understanding of climate variability over time. This study reveals the spatial variability of rainfall trends in Sri Lanka from 1989 to 2019 as an indication of climate change. The exclusivity of the study is the use of rainfall data that provide spatial variability instead of the traditional location-based approach. Henceforth, daily rainfall data available at Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation corrected with stations (CHIRPS) data were used for this study. The geographic information system (GIS) is used to perform spatial data analysis on both vector and raster data. Sen’s slope estimator and the Mann–Kendall (M–K) test are used to investigate the trends in annual and seasonal rainfall throughout all districts and climatic zones of Sri Lanka. The most important thing reflected in this study is that there has been a significant increase in annual rainfall from 1989 to 2019 in all climatic zones (wet, dry, intermediate, and Semi-arid) of Sri Lanka. The maximum increase is recorded in the wet zone and the minimum increase is in the semi-arid zone.

  • Sri Lanka Page 1 of 25
    Sri Lanka Page 1 of 25 Sri Lanka Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2000 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor February 23, 2001 Sri Lanka is a longstanding democratic republic with an active multiparty system. Constitutional power is shared between the popularly elected President and the 225-member Parliament. Chandrika Kumaratunga, head of the governing People's Alliance (PA) coalition, won reelection in 1999 for a second 6-year presidential term in a process marked by voting irregularities and at least six election-related deaths. Violence and fraud marked the October parliamentary elections as well; at least seven persons were killed in campaign-related violence in the period prior to the October election, which resulted in a reduced majority for the PA for the next 6-year period. The Government respects constitutional provisions for an independent judiciary. Through its rulings, the judiciary continued to exhibit its independence and to uphold individual civil rights, although the Supreme Court Chief Justice, in an attempt to reduce the court's workload, limited the fundamental rights cases that the court examined, preventing some torture victims from obtaining redress. For the past 17 years, the Government has fought the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), an insurgent organization fighting for a separate ethnic Tamil state in the north and east of the country. The conflict has claimed over 62,000 lives. In 1999 government forces took LTTE-controlled areas north and west of Vavuniya, but counterattacks starting in November 1999 erased most government gains. In January the LTTE began a buildup on the Jaffna peninsula and in April captured the important Elephant Pass military base.

  • Escalating Conflict and Open Warfare in the Northern and Eastern Parts of Sri Lanka Resulting in Grave Humanitarian Consequences for Over 200,000 Internally Displaced
    • Escalating conflict and open warfare in the northern and eastern parts of Sri Lanka resulting in grave humanitarian consequences for over 200,000 internally displaced. • Humanitarian access greatly impeded to assist the civilian population in conflict-affected areas due to the prevailing security situation. • Recruitment of children by the LTTE and Karuna Faction continues to be a major violation to children’s rights in Sri Lanka.

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW AND ISSUES FOR CHILDREN The unresolved conflict and the dangerously fragile ceasefire agreement between the Government and Liberation of Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) continue to gravely impact the lives of children and women in Sri Lanka and are the most important factors hampering rapid and sustainable development of the economy. With violence between the government and the LTTE at its highest level since 2002, the security situation is deteriorating especially in the North and East. Political functionaries have been killed and multiple attacks on military and police outposts have taken place. Religious/ethnic strife is common, and public life is often closed down as a means of popular protest. While the entire country has suffered from the consequences of the conflict, the eight North East districts of Jaffna, Kilinochchi, Mannar, Mullaitivu, Vavuniya, Batticaloa, Trincomalee and Ampara have borne the brunt of it. Since August 2006, over 200,000 persons have been displaced (including multiple displacements from Trincomalee to Vaharai and in January 2007, to Batticaloa government- controlled areas).

    Impact and Implementation Sri Lanka Impact Contamination History of contamination Sri Lanka is heavily contaminated by mines and explosive remnants of war (ERW). Most contamination is in the north, the focus of three decades of armed conflict between the government and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), which ended in May 2009.1 Both sides made extensive use of mines, including blast antipersonnel mines laid by the Sri Lanka Army (SLA), and a mixture of mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) laid by the LTTE.2 Indian Peacekeeping Forces also used mines during their presence from July 1987 to January 1990.3 Extent of Contamination The estimate of mine/ERW contamination as of February 2017 was just over 26.3km2. Of this, 22km2 was confirmed as mined. Estimated extent of contamination: Heavy Mine/ERW contamination by district (as of February 2017)4 Province District Area (m2) Northern Jaffna 821,555 Kilinochchi 10,787,756 Mullaitivu 7,391,741 Vavuniya 2,098,660 Mannar 4,160,512 Subtotal 25,260,224 Eastern Trincomalee 403,823 Batticaloa 323,133 Ampara 9,839 Subtotal 736,795 North Central Anuradhapura 344,437 Subtotal 344,437 Total 26,341,456 Casualties Mine/ERW casualties in Sri Lanka 1999—2016 Year 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Casualties 34 223 207 142 99 56 38 64 34 79 38 47 24 47 21 16 8 8 All known casualties (through 2016) 22,193 mine/ERW casualties Casualties in 2016 Annual total 8 No change from 8 in 2015 Survival outcome 1 killed; 7 injured Device type causing casualties 1 antipersonnel mine; 2 antivehicle mine; 5 ERW Civilian status 8 civilians Age and gender 8 adults: 0 women, 8 men 0 children 0 unknown Addressing the impact through treaty implementation The International Campaign to Ban Landmines has noted that all states, including Sri Lanka, should implement an efficient land release methodology to accurately define the size of contamination.
