The Application of Taiwan Earthquake Impact Research and Information Application Platform for Lifeline Systems
The Application of Taiwan Earthquake Impact Research and Information Application Platform for Lifeline Systems 吳佳容 李中生 柯孝勳 劉淑燕 Carol C. Wu Chung-Sheng Lee Siao-Syun Ke Sheu-Yien Liu National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction (NCDR), Taiwan ABSTRACT In last decade, several large-scale earthquakes have struck major population areas and caused heavy casualties and losses in many countries. Therefore, to understand the impact and disaster scenarios of assumed large-scale earthquakes to urban areas becomes an urgent and crucial task to the central and local governments of Taiwan. The purpose of this research is to develop an integrated research and application platform, Taiwan Earthquake Impact Research and Information Application (TERIA), which is established to evaluate the impact scenario of earthquakes to the metropolitans in Taiwan. Using TERIA platform in this study, the post-earthquake scenario analysis focused on power and water system as examples. Incorporated with geographic information system (GIS) analysis in 500m×500m grids, the characters of ground shaking and liquefaction for whole area are provided. To conclude with it, the objective of this unique platform is to furnish a comprehensive impact and damage scenario to fulfill the necessary data for planning disaster mitigation strategies and preparedness actions that make the cities in Taiwan more resilient to earthquakes. Keywords:Earthquake, Impact Scenario, Lifelines, Seismic Response 1 INTRODUCTION In last decade, several large-scale earthquakes have struck major population areas and caused heavy casualties and losses in many countries. These natural disasters also revealed the vulnerability of communities, buildings, lifelines, communication and other critical infrastructures, which induced cascading impact and catastrophe unexpectedly. -

Mapping Cross-Boundary Climate Change Vulnerability—Case Study of the Hualien and Taitung Area, Taiwan

The most vulnerable townships are Yanping and Chenggong townships in Taitung County, and the least vulnerable townships are Fuli, Jian, Yuli, Shoufeng and Fenglin townships in Hualien County. The severity of potential impacts to townships in Taitung County is greater than that to townships in Hualien County. In the context of climate change, the Hualien-Taitung Area must develop policies that prioritize policies and strategies for hotspot townships. Furthermore, the Hualien-Taitung Area should integrate long-term cross-boundary policies and strategies to lobby for increased funding from the central government. Moreover, cross-boundary resource integration and regional adaptation strategies should be merged to help the Hualien-Taitung Area move toward sustainability. -
Non-Anopheline Mosquitoes of Taiwan: Annotated Catalog and Bibliography1
Pacific Insects 4 (3) : 615-649 October 10, 1962 NON-ANOPHELINE MOSQUITOES OF TAIWAN: ANNOTATED CATALOG AND BIBLIOGRAPHY1 By J. C. Lien TAIWAN PROVINCIAL MALARIA RESEARCH INSTITUTE2 INTRODUCTION The studies of the mosquitoes of Taiwan were initiated as early as 1901 or even earlier by several pioneer workers, i. e. K. Kinoshita, J. Hatori, F. V. Theobald, J. Tsuzuki and so on, and have subsequently been carried out by them and many other workers. Most of the workers laid much more emphasis on anopheline than on non-anopheline mosquitoes, because the former had direct bearing on the transmission of the most dreaded disease, malaria, in Taiwan. Owing to their efforts, the taxonomic problems of the Anopheles mos quitoes of Taiwan are now well settled, and their local distribution and some aspects of their habits well understood. However, there still remains much work to be done on the non-anopheline mosquitoes of Taiwan. Nowadays, malaria is being so successfully brought down to near-eradication in Taiwan that public health workers as well as the general pub lic are starting to give their attention to the control of other mosquito-borne diseases such as filariasis and Japanese B encephalitis, and the elimination of mosquito nuisance. Ac cordingly extensive studies of the non-anopheline mosquitoes of Taiwan now become very necessary and important. Morishita and Okada (1955) published a reference catalogue of the local non-anophe line mosquitoes. However the catalog compiled by them in 1955 was based on informa tion obtained before 1945. They listed 34 species, but now it becomes clear that 4 of them are respectively synonyms of 4 species among the remaining 30. -

Vertical Facility List
Facility List The Walt Disney Company is committed to fostering safe, inclusive and respectful workplaces wherever Disney-branded products are manufactured. Numerous measures in support of this commitment are in place, including increased transparency. To that end, we have published this list of the roughly 7,600 facilities in over 70 countries that manufacture Disney-branded products sold, distributed or used in our own retail businesses such as The Disney Stores and Theme Parks, as well as those used in our internal operations. Our goal in releasing this information is to foster collaboration with industry peers, governments, non- governmental organizations and others interested in improving working conditions. Under our International Labor Standards (ILS) Program, facilities that manufacture products or components incorporating Disney intellectual properties must be declared to Disney and receive prior authorization to manufacture. The list below includes the names and addresses of facilities disclosed to us by vendors under the requirements of Disney’s ILS Program for our vertical business, which includes our own retail businesses and internal operations. The list does not include the facilities used only by licensees of The Walt Disney Company or its affiliates that source, manufacture and sell consumer products by and through independent entities. Disney’s vertical business comprises a wide range of product categories including apparel, toys, electronics, food, home goods, personal care, books and others. As a result, the number of facilities involved in the production of Disney-branded products may be larger than for companies that operate in only one or a limited number of product categories. In addition, because we require vendors to disclose any facility where Disney intellectual property is present as part of the manufacturing process, the list includes facilities that may extend beyond finished goods manufacturers or final assembly locations. -
