  • Nepal Earthquake District Profile - Gorkha OSOCC Assessment Cell 09.05.2015
    Nepal Earthquake District Profile - Gorkha OSOCC Assessment Cell 09.05.2015 This report is produced by the OSOCC Assessment Cell based on secondary data from multiple sources, including the Government of Nepal, UNDAC, United Nations Agencies, non-governmental organisation and media sources. I. Situation Overview Gorkha, with a population of more than 271,000, is one of the worst-affected districts.1 The epicenter of the earthquake was in Brapok, 15km from Gorkha town. As of 6 May, 412 people have been reported killed and 1,034 injured. In the southern part of the district, food has been provided, but field observations indicate that the food supplied might not be enough for the actual population in the area. Several VDCs in the mountainous areas of Gorkha are yet to be reached by humanitarian assistance. There are no roads in these northern areas, only footpaths. The level of destruction within the district and even within VDCs varies widely, as does the availability of food. A humanitarian hub has been set up at the Chief District Officer’s (CDO) premises in Gorkha town. Reported number of people in need (multiple sources) The figures featured in this map have been collected via multiple sources (district authorities, Red Cross, local NGO, media). Where multiple figures for the same location have been reported the highest one was taken. These figures are indicative and do not represent the overall number of people in need. 1 This is an updated version of the Gorkha District Profile that was published by ACAPS on 1 May 2015. As with other mountain areas of Nepal, Gorkha contains popular locations for foreign trekkers.

  • Dependence of Probabilistic Quantitative Precipitation Forecast Performance on Typhoon Characteristics and Forecast Track Error in Taiwan
    APRIL 2020 T E N G E T A L . 585 Dependence of Probabilistic Quantitative Precipitation Forecast Performance on Typhoon Characteristics and Forecast Track Error in Taiwan HSU-FENG TENG AND JAMES M. DONE National Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, Colorado CHENG-SHANG LEE Department of Atmospheric Sciences, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan YING-HWA KUO National Center for Atmospheric Research, and University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, Colorado (Manuscript received 15 August 2019, in final form 7 January 2020) ABSTRACT This study investigates the probabilistic quantitative precipitation forecast (PQPF) performance of ty- phoons that affected Taiwan during 2011–16. In this period, a total of 19 typhoons with a land warning issued by the Central Weather Bureau (CWB) are analyzed. The PQPF is calculated using the ensemble precipi- tation forecast data from the Taiwan Cooperative Precipitation Ensemble Forecast Experiment (TAPEX), and the verification data, verification thresholds, and typhoon characteristics are obtained from the CWB. The overall PQPF performance of TAPEX has an acceptable reliability and discrimination ability, and the higher probability error is distributed at the mountainous area of Taiwan. The PQPF performance is significantly influenced by typhoon characteristics (e.g., typhoon tracks, sizes, and forward speeds). The PQPFs for westward-moving, large, or slow typhoons have higher reliability and discrimination ability, and lower- probability error than those for northward-moving, small, or fast typhoons, except for similar reliability between fast and slow typhoons. Because northward-moving or small typhoons have larger forecast track error, and their PQPF performance is sensitive to the accuracy of the forecast track, a higher probability error occurs than that for westward-moving or large typhoons.

  • RE Subsidy Policy, 2073(English)
    (Unofficial Translation) Government of Nepal Ministry of Population and Environment Renewable Energy Subsidy Policy, 2073 BS May 2016 1. Background Nepal is endowed with good renewable energy potential. The major sources of renewable energy are mini and micro hydropower, solar energy, various forms of biomass energy, biogas and wind energy etc. Despite huge renewable energy potential, still around 85% of the total final energy consumption in Nepal is met by traditional biomass energy and around 28% of households (HHs) in Nepal do not have access to electricity. It is not possible to significantly improve the living standard of the low income population living in the rural areas if their renewable energy demand is not met. Extension of national grid to reach those areas is not possible in many years to come due to difficult terrain, high cost and existing energy crisis in the country. Therefore, clean and sustainable energy such as Renewable Energy Technologies (RETs) needs to be developed as immediate and long-term solutions. The economic hardship of people living in the rural areas and the high initial cost of the RETs justifies the need of subsidy and concessional credit facilities to increase access to cleaner energy. 2. Past Efforts The Government of Nepal (GoN) has been supporting promotion and development of RETs since more than past two decades with support from Development Partners (DPs), private sector and non- governmental organizations. These initiatives have resulted in significant fruitful achievements in the development of renewable energy in the country. The GoN and DPs have been providing financial and technical support to increase energy access in the rural areas both for household's consumption and productive end uses.

  • On the Extreme Rainfall of Typhoon Morakot (2009)
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 116, D05104, doi:10.1029/2010JD015092, 2011 On the extreme rainfall of Typhoon Morakot (2009) Fang‐Ching Chien1 and Hung‐Chi Kuo2 Received 21 September 2010; revised 17 December 2010; accepted 4 January 2011; published 4 March 2011. [1] Typhoon Morakot (2009), a devastating tropical cyclone (TC) that made landfall in Taiwan from 7 to 9 August 2009, produced the highest recorded rainfall in southern Taiwan in the past 50 years. This study examines the factors that contributed to the heavy rainfall. It is found that the amount of rainfall in Taiwan was nearly proportional to the reciprocal of TC translation speed rather than the TC intensity. Morakot’s landfall on Taiwan occurred concurrently with the cyclonic phase of the intraseasonal oscillation, which enhanced the background southwesterly monsoonal flow. The extreme rainfall was caused by the very slow movement of Morakot both in the landfall and in the postlandfall periods and the continuous formation of mesoscale convection with the moisture supply from the southwesterly flow. A composite study of 19 TCs with similar track to Morakot shows that the uniquely slow translation speed of Morakot was closely related to the northwestward‐extending Pacific subtropical high (PSH) and the broad low‐pressure systems (associated with Typhoon Etau and Typhoon Goni) surrounding Morakot. Specifically, it was caused by the weakening steering flow at high levels that primarily resulted from the weakening PSH, an approaching short‐wave trough, and the northwestward‐tilting Etau. After TC landfall, the circulation of Goni merged with the southwesterly flow, resulting in a moisture conveyer belt that transported moisture‐laden air toward the east‐northeast.

  • Indigenous Knowledge and Endogenous Actions for Building Tribal Resilience After Typhoon Soudelor in Northern Taiwan
    sustainability Article Indigenous Knowledge and Endogenous Actions for Building Tribal Resilience after Typhoon Soudelor in Northern Taiwan Su-Hsin Lee 1 and Yin-Jen Chen 2,* 1 Department of Geography, National Taiwan Normal University, 162, Section 1, Heping E. Rd., Taipei City 10610, Taiwan; [email protected] 2 Graduate Institute of Earth Science, Chinese Culture University, 55, Hwa-Kang Road, Yang-Ming-Shan, Taipei City 11114, Taiwan * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Indigenous peoples often face significant vulnerabilities to climate risks, yet the capacity of a social-ecological system (SES) to resilience is abstracted from indigenous and local knowledge. This research explored how the Tayal people in the Wulai tribes located in typhoon disaster areas along Nanshi River used indigenous knowledge as tribal resilience. It applied empirical analysis from secondary data on disaster relief and in-depth interviews, demonstrating how indigenous people’s endogenous actions helped during post-disaster reconstructing. With the intertwined concepts of indigenous knowledge, SESs, and tribes’ cooperation, the result presented the endogenous actions for tribal resilience. In addition, indigenous knowledge is instigated by the Qutux Niqan of mutual assistance and symbiosis among the Wulai tribes, and there is a need to build joint cooperation through local residence, indigenous people living outside of their tribes, and religious or social groups. The findings of tribal resilience after a typhoon disaster of co-production in the Wulai, Lahaw, and Fushan tribes include the importance of historical context, how indigenous people turn to their local knowledge rather than just only participating in disaster relief, and how they produce indigenous tourism for indigenous knowledge inheritance.
