  • Chapter 5. Focus and Perspectives
    | 78 Chapter 5. Focus and perspectives Building on the CropWatch analyses presented in chapters 1 through 4, this chapter includes an updated production outlook for 2016 focused on wheat (section 5.1), as well as sections on recent disaster events (section 5.2), a focus on agriculture in the East and Southeast Asia (5.3) and an update on El Niño (5.4). 5.1 CropWatch production outlook The production outlook for the current bulletin includes only the major producers in the southern hemisphere, as assessments for the northern hemisphere would be too hypothetical at this early stage in the season. For Argentina, CropWatch puts its winter wheat production of 2016 at 11.245 million tons, an increase of 5.0% over the previous year resulting from increases in the major production area. This year, however, provinces that generally contribute relatively little to the global output outperformed the traditional “big” wheat producers from Córdoba to Buenos Aires. The same occurred in Australia where the wheat production increased more in minor producing areas (+45.1% over last year) than nationwide (+24.3%). The total output in Australia exceeds that of Argentina by a factor 3 and reaches 32.066 million tons. Finally, at 7.747 million tons, the output of Brazil stays behind that of its southern neighbor, increasing however 10.0% over the previous season. Contrary to the situation in Australia and Argentina, minor wheat producing areas in Brazil did poorly (-29%). Wheat production results for Argentina, Australia and Brazil are listed in Annex B. 5.2 Disaster events Introduction According to a recent World Bank study (Hallegatte et al, 2017), economic losses from natural disasters totaled US$92 billion in 2015, mostly in the building, infrastructure and agricultural production sectors.

The typhoon caused severe damage and losses to the basic infrastructure, especially to productive areas, the irrigation system, roads and bridges, hospitals, and schools. Further, the typhoon disrupted the local people’s livelihoods, assets and properties. The poor and vulnerable groups of people are most affected by the typhoon. Without immediate recovery efforts, its consequences will gravely compromise the development efforts undertaken so far by the government, seriously set back economic dynamism, and further jeopardise the already very precarious situation in some of the provinces that were hard hit by the typhoon. A Joint Damage, Losses and Needs Assessment (JDLNA) was undertaken, with field visit to the four most affected provinces from 25th July to 5th August 2011.

  • NASA Sees Typhoon Sarika Approaching Second Landfall 18 October 2016
    NASA sees Typhoon Sarika approaching second landfall 18 October 2016 On Oct. 17 at 2:10 (06:10 UTC) NASA-NOAA's Suomi NPP satellite passed over Sarika and provided a visible-light image of the storm. The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument aboard NASA-NOAA's Suomi NPP satellite showed the cloud-filled center of circulation in the central northern South China Sea, southwest of Hainan Island, China. At 5 a.m. EDT (0900 UTC) Sarika had maximum sustained winds near 92 mph (80 knots/148 kph). It was centered near 18.0 degrees north latitude and 112.4 degrees east longitude, about 409 nautical miles east-southeast of Hanoi, Vietnam. It was moving to the west at 10 mph (8 knots/16 kph). The Joint Typhoon Warning Center forecasts Sarika to move toward Hainan Island, China where it is expected to make landfall. Sarika is later forecast to continue west and make a third landfall in northern Vietnam. Provided by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center On Oct. 17 at 2:10 (06:10 UTC) NASA-NOAA's Suomi NPP satellite captured a visible image of Typhoon Sarika approaching China. Credit: NOAA/NASA's Rapid Response Team NASA-NOAA's Suomi NPP satellite provided a visible look at Typhoon Sarika as it was poised for its second of three expected landfalls. When the satellite passed over Sarika it was in the South China Sea. Strong wind signal #3 is in force at Hong Kong, China, according to the Central Weather Bureau. Sarika, formerly known as Tropical Depression 24W fills up the northern half of the South China Sea on satellite imagery.

The Netherlands Red Cross designed a model that aims to identify the high priority areas for humanitarian assistance on the basis of secondary data. This research identifies how decision-makers from humanitarian agencies and the Philippine Government ‘make sense’ of this model and its predictions in order to prioritise municipalities for humanitarian assistance. This research explores what the Priority Index Model is, what similar initiatives are, who the decision-makers are that have to prioritise and what their information needs are.

We found significant typhoon-induced sea surface cooling using satellite sea surface temperature (SST) observations and numerical model simulations. This cooling was mainly caused by vertical mixing and upwelling. The maximum amplitudes were 6 ◦C and 4.2 ◦C for Typhoons Kalmaegi and Sarika, respectively. For Typhoon Sarika, Argo temperature profile measurements showed that temperature response beneath the surface showed a three-layer vertical structure (decreasing-increasing-decreasing). Satellite salinity observations showed that the maximum increase of sea surface salinity (SSS) was 2.2 psu on the right side of Typhoon Sarika’s track, and the maximum decrease of SSS was 1.4 psu on the left.
