  • Preparatory Survey Report on the Mauritius Meteorological Services Project in the Republic of Mauritius
    Mauritius Meteorological Services The Republic of Mauritius PREPARATORY SURVEY REPORT ON THE MAURITIUS METEOROLOGICAL SERVICES PROJECT IN THE REPUBLIC OF MAURITIUS November 2012 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY JAPAN WEATHER ASSOCIATION INTERNATIONAL METEOROLOGICAL CONSULTANT INC. GE JR 12-143 Summary Summary Mauritius, a country consisting of small islands, is located in the cyclone-prone area of the Southwest Indian Ocean and is often affected by natural disasters such as heavy storms, tidal waves and floods caused by tropical cyclones, landslides and so on. Recently, climate change caused by global warming has posed a serious problem for Mauritius as it is predicted to have significant negative impacts on small island nations which are particularly vulnerable to a change in the natural environment. In addition, it is said that climate change has a potential to become the greatest threat to the sustainability of the very foundations of human survival. Thus, it is a significant global issue which developed and developing countries alike must deal with in mutually beneficial cooperation. In line with increasing global concerns on the intensification of disasters caused by climate change, the establishment of effective countermeasures against disasters such as severe storms, storm surges, and floods caused by tropical cyclones, rising sea level, tsunami, etc. has been an urgent task in Mauritius as well as in other countries in the Southwest Indian Ocean. In order for Mauritius to contribute to the alleviation of natural disasters in the Southwest Indian Ocean, the following are required and strongly desired: 1) An efficient meteorological observation system; and, 2) An Exchange of meteorological observation data and information about cyclones with neighboring countries in the Southwest Indian Ocean on a timely basis.

Barrier island transgression is influenced by the alongshore variation in beach and dune morphol- ogy, which determines the amount of sediment moved landward through wash-over. While several studies have demonstrated how variations in dune morphology affect island response to storms, the reasons for that vari- ation and the implications for island management remain unclear. This paper builds on previous research by demonstrating that paleo-channels in the irregular framework geology can have a directional influence on along- shore beach and dune morphology. The influence of relict paleo-channels on beach and dune morphology on Padre Island National Seashore, Texas, was quantified by isolating the long-range dependence (LRD) parame- ter in autoregressive fractionally integrated moving average (ARFIMA) models, originally developed for stock market economic forecasting.

  • Part 629 – Glossary of Landform and Geologic Terms
    Title 430 – National Soil Survey Handbook Part 629 – Glossary of Landform and Geologic Terms Subpart A – General Information 629.0 Definition and Purpose This glossary provides the NCSS soil survey program, soil scientists, and natural resource specialists with landform, geologic, and related terms and their definitions to— (1) Improve soil landscape description with a standard, single source landform and geologic glossary. (2) Enhance geomorphic content and clarity of soil map unit descriptions by use of accurate, defined terms. (3) Establish consistent geomorphic term usage in soil science and the National Cooperative Soil Survey (NCSS). (4) Provide standard geomorphic definitions for databases and soil survey technical publications. (5) Train soil scientists and related professionals in soils as landscape and geomorphic entities. 629.1 Responsibilities This glossary serves as the official NCSS reference for landform, geologic, and related terms. The staff of the National Soil Survey Center, located in Lincoln, NE, is responsible for maintaining and updating this glossary. Soil Science Division staff and NCSS participants are encouraged to propose additions and changes to the glossary for use in pedon descriptions, soil map unit descriptions, and soil survey publications. The Glossary of Geology (GG, 2005) serves as a major source for many glossary terms. The American Geologic Institute (AGI) granted the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly the Soil Conservation Service) permission (in letters dated September 11, 1985, and September 22, 1993) to use existing definitions. Sources of, and modifications to, original definitions are explained immediately below. 629.2 Definitions A.

  • Estimating Global Damages from Sea Level Rise with the Coastal Impact and Adaptation Model (CIAM)
    Estimating Global Damages from Sea Level Rise with the Coastal Impact and Adaptation Model (CIAM) Delavane B. Diazy FEEM Note di Lavoro/Working Paper Series originally presented at European Summer School in Resource and Environmental Economics San Servolo, Venice, Italy July 12, 2014 Abstract The costs of coastal sector impacts from sea level rise (SLR) are an important component of the total projected economic damages of climate change, a major input to decision-making and design of climate policy. Moreover, the ultimate costs to coastal resources will depend strongly on adaptation, society's response to cope with the impacts. This paper presents a new model to assess coastal impacts from SLR, combining global scope with high spatial resolution to fill a gap between very detailed local studies and aggregate global estimates. The Coastal Impact and Adaptation Model (CIAM) determines the optimal strategy for adaptation at the local level, evaluating over 12,000 coastal segments, as described in the DIVA database (Vafeidis et al, 2006), based on their socioeconomic characteristics and the potential impacts of relative sea level rise and uncertain storm surge. An application of CIAM is then presented to demonstrate the model's ability to assess local impacts and direct costs, choose the least-cost adaptation, and estimate global net damages for several probabilistic SLR scenarios (Kopp et al, 2014). CIAM finds that there is large potential for coastal adaptation to reduce the expected impacts of SLR compared to the alternative of no adaptation, lowering global net present costs by a factor of 10 to less than $1.5 trillion over the next two centuries, although this does not include initial transition costs to overcome an under-adapted current state.

  • Note De Présentation PPRL St-Benoît
    DEPARTEMENT DE LA REUNION Commune de Saint-Benoît PLAN DE PREVENTION DES RISQUES LITTORAUX « Submersion marine et érosion du trait de côte » ——————————— NOTE DE PRESENTATION Septembre 2017 ——————————— Approbation PPR L de Saint-Benoît Note de présentation Septembre 2017 Avertissement général sur les limites d’étude du document PPR Les débats soulevés pendant et après les enquêtes publiques sur les premiers PPR réalisés à La Réunion ont amené à rédiger cet avertissement général mettant l’accent particulièrement sur les limites d’étude des documents. Le terme de « risques naturels » communément employé dans des contextes très variés, est largement popularisé par les médias. Ce terme est pourtant souvent utilisé de manière impropre, et cela peut constituer une source de confusion. Il convient donc de préciser tout d’abord que le risque résulte de la conjonction de l’aléa (phénomène de mouvements de terrain, inondations, submersion, érosion, ou autre) et de la vulnérabilité (présence d’enjeux). Le présent Plan de Prévention des Risques littoraux prend en compte le risque « submersion marine » et le risque « érosion du trait de côte » pour lesquels l’état des connaissances était suffisant pour pouvoir formuler des prescriptions réglementaires détaillées. Ce document a été établi dans une logique de prévention (et non d’exposition) en s’appuyant sur les connaissances disponibles. Ainsi, le PPR a été dressé au regard des risques recensés dans les études antérieures à son établissement. Le classement réglementaire rouge/bleu ne tient pas compte dans sa cartographie des travaux de protection à venir. A partir des données existantes sur le plan cartographique, des zonages réglementaires avec les interdictions et les prescriptions correspondantes ont été établis afin de constituer la servitude d’utilité publique.
