CTI ENGINEERING INTERNATIONAL OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION The following foreign exchange rate is applied in the study: US$ 1.00 = PKR 88.4 PREFACE The National Disaster Management Plan (NDMP) is a milestone in the history of the Disaster Management System (DRM) in Pakistan. The rapid change in global climate has given rise to many disasters that pose a severe threat to the human life, property and infrastructure. Disasters like floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, droughts, sediment disasters, avalanches, GLOFs, and cyclones with storm surges are some prominent manifestations of climate change phenomenon. Pakistan, which is ranked in the top ten countries that are the most vulnerable to climate change effects, started planning to safeguard and secure the life, land and property of its people in particular the poor, the vulnerable and the marginalized. However, recurring disasters since 2005 have provided the required stimuli for accelerating the efforts towards capacity building of the responsible agencies, which include federal, provincial, district governments, community organizations, NGOs and individuals. Prior to 2005, the West Pakistan National Calamities Act of 1958 was the available legal remedy that regulated the maintenance and restoration of order in areas affected by calamities and relief against such calamities.

  • Reviews Sedimentology Around Jettiesas Strategies' Prevent
    IOSR Journal of Applied Chemistry (IOSR-JAC) e-ISSN: 2278-5736.Volume 9, Issue 11 Ver. I (November. 2016), PP 21-29 www.iosrjournals.org Reviews Sedimentology around Jettiesas Strategies’ Prevent Sedimentation Ahrari-Roudi M. *1; M.A.Zainudini*2. *1Assistant Professor, Marine Sciences Faculty, Oceanography Department, Chabahar Maritime University *2Marine Sciences Faculty, Oceanography Department, Chabahar Maritime University Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine texture and source of sediments in Chabahar jetties by using granulometry and determination of organic matter and calcium carbonate content. The Makranaccretionary prism is located in the Northwestern part of the Indian Ocean, in South of Iran and Pakistan. South-east Iran is the site of a rare case of young transition between subduction and collision. The project aims to show future dredging operation and infrastructure development plans at the Oman Sea ports in order to assess the challenges concerning sediments, handling of dredged sediments and fulfillment of all the plans. Moreover, concentration of oxides and elements including SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO, MgO, MnO, TiO2, B, Bi, As, Sr, Cr, Cu, Ni, Ba, and W in various types of sediments were determined separately. The result of geochemical studies of sediments and Putting together them with element distribution maps of bay show high concentration of some heavy elements like Cr, Sr, W, Zn, Bi, As and Cu in the margin of ShahidBeheshty and ShahidKalantari jetties in the most Southeastern part. This confirms the human activities as a main origin for the pollution.Results show a majority of the ports plan to do dredging in next 1-5 or 6-10 years with the aim of maintaining or increasing the water depth, construction works or expansion of the port area.

  • Ecological Impbalances in the Coastal Areas of Pakistan and Karachi
    Pakistan Journal of Marine Sciences, VoL4(2), 159-174, 1995. REVIEW ARTICLE ECOLOGICAL IMBALANCES IN THE COASTAL AREAS OF PAKISTAN AND KARACID HARBOUR Mirza Arshad Ali Beg 136-C, Rafahe Aam Housing Society, Malir Halt, Karachi-75210. ABSTRACT: The marine environment of Pakistan has been described in the context of three main regions : the Indus delta and its creek system, the Karachi coastal region, and the Balochistan coast The creeks, contrary to concerns, do receive adequate discharges of freshwater. On site observations indicate that freshwater continues flowing into them during the lean water periods and dilutes the seawater there. A major factor for the loss of mangrove forests. as well as ecological disturbances in the Indus delta is loss of the silt load resulting in erosion of its mudflats. The ecological disturbance has been aggravated by allowing camels to browse the mangroves. The tree branches and trunks, having been denuded of leaves are felled for firewood. Evidence is presented to show that while indiscriminate removal of its mangrove trees is responsible for the loss oflarge tracts of mangrove forests, overharvesting of fisheries resources has depleted the river of some valuable fishes that were available from the delta area. Municipal and industrial effluents discharged into the Lyari and Malir rivers and responsible for land-based pollution at the Karachi coast and the harbour. The following are the three major areas receiving land-based pollution and whose environmental conditions have been examined in detail: (l) the Manora channel, located on the estuar}r of the Lyari river and serving as the main harbour, has vast areas forming its western and eastern backwaters characterized by mud flats and mangroves.

  • Geography of Pakistan (Solved Mcqs) | World General Knowledge Series
    Geography of Pakistan (Solved MCQs) | World General Knowledge Series Pakistan is situated in the western part of the Indian subcontinent, with Afghanistan and Iran on the west, India on the east, and the Arabian Sea on the south. The name Pakistan is derived from the Urdu words PAK (meaning pure) and STAN (meaning country). It is nearly twice the size of California. Pakistan is divided in three main geographic regions Northern high lands (contain peaks like K2) Indus River Plains (one of the world’s most fertile plains ) Balochistan Plateau (contains Gawadar Port , future economic corridor to South Asia) Northern Highlands The northern and western highlands of Pakistan contain the towering Karakoram and Pamir mountain ranges, which include some of the world’s highest peaks: K2 (28,250 ft; 8,611 m) and Nanga Parbat (26,660 ft; 8,126 m). Indus River Plains An expanse of alluvial plains, the Punjab and Sind, lie to the east. The 1,000-mile-long (1,609 km) Indus River and its tributaries flow through the country from the Kashmir region to the Arabian Sea. Balochistan Plateau The Baluchistan Plateau lies to the west and the Thar desert lies in the east. Climate Of Pakistan With the exception of the temperate coastal region, most of Pakistan suffers from seasonal extremes of temperature From June to September, Pakistan has its monsoon season, with warm weather and heavy rain in some areas. The temperatures drop significantly in December through February, while spring tends to be very warm and dry. Of course, the Karakoram and Hindu Kush mountain ranges are snowbound for much of the year, due to their high altitudes.
