4938 Families Affected FLASH REPORT FLASH REPORT - TROPICAL STORM CHALANE IOM/INGC Rapid assessment Damages to resettlement sites - Sofala and Manica Provinces IOM MOZAMBIQUE / SOFALA AND MANICA PROVINCES 3 JANUARY 2021 4,938 5 2 2,509 2,429 Families affected Health centers Schools Tents Shelters Tropical Storm Chalane made landfall in Sofala on the 30th December 2020, bringing heavy rains and strong winds that affected some parts of the Province. The districts of Buzi, Dondo and Nhamatanda were the most affected and reported important damages, whilst Chibabava only reported minor damages to temporary structures. Caia district didn’t report any damages in resettlement sites. The Province of Manica, more specifically the Sussundenga district, also reported some damages after the tropical storm. RAPID ASSESSMENT Following these events, a rapid assessment was conducted by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in collaboration with the National Institute for Disaster Management (INGC), between the 31st of December 2020 and the 2nd of January 2021. The assessment focuses on understanding the extent of damages to shelters and facilities across all 65* existing resettlement sites in Sofala and Manica Provinces, which were established in the aftermath of Tropical Cyclone Idai in 2019. These resettlement sites are particularly exposed and vulnerable to damages as a result of environmental factors, since durable solutions and build back better initiatives are not yet comprehensively supported and implemented at this point in time. Therefore, damages were reported in resettlement sites where people displaced by Cyclone Idai live, with hundreds of tents and temporary shelters destroyed, as well as permanent structures such as schools and hospitals. As a result of Tropical Storm Chalane, 4,938 families had their tents and shelters destroyed/partially destroyed. Of these, 4,393 are located in Sofala, and 545 in Manica province. The most affected districts are Dondo (1,793 households), Buzi (1,629), Nhamatanda (802) and Sussundenga (471). Out of the 65* sites assessed in Sofala and Manica, 52 were affected by the tropical storm, and for 13 resettlements no incidents were registered. In total, 1,213 upgraded shelters, 1,216 emergency shelters and 2,509 tents were completely or partially destroyed due to the rain and strong winds. Additionally, IOM/INGC identified 2,552 latrines and 18 water points damaged. Moreover, 2 schools near the sites were damaged. Both are located in Sofala, in the resettlement sites of Mutua (Dondo district), and Ndedja 1 (Nhamatanda district). Five health centers near sites were also damaged, in the localities of Maxiquiri alto/Maxiquiri 1 (Buzi), Macarate and Mutindiri sede (Chibabava), Mutua (Dondo) and Ndedja 1 (Nhamatanda). The rapid assessment did not reveal any cases of children separated in the process of leaving at-risk areas to temporary accommodation sites, nor elderly or persons with disabilities who had been left behind without care. A more detailed multi-sector location assessments (MSLA) and protection assessments will be conducted to give more detailed information on protection risks and needs. *5 sites are spontaneous sites which emerged in 2020 due to the situation of insecurity (fear of attacks) in central Mozambique.

Biggest issue by far - agreed operational 4 standards and knowledge. Safety Different Safety Picture to Fixed Wing ─ Fixed Wing Airline operations are passenger focused, generally have large supporting infrastructure, preplanned/ regular routing, the loads and environment repeat. ─ Humanitarian operations are short notice deployments, completely new countries, poor infrastructure, little supporting infrastructure and random payload.

    @Save the Children Malawi Real -Time Response Review – DEC programme for Cyclone Idai Malawi country report Key Aid Consulting August 2019 www.keyaidconsulting.com Malawi Country RTR Report FV 5 September 2019 1 Report authors Blessing Mutsaka, Anne Dlugosz, Basileke Gift Kanike, Thandie Harris-Sapp, Helene Juillard Under the overall technical guidance and coordination of Katy Bobin, DEC MEAL Manager. Funding This is an independent report commissioned and funded by the Disasters Emergency Committee. The UK Department for International Development has contributed to the DEC Cyclone Idai Appeal through its AidMatch scheme. However, the views expressed do not necessarily reflect DEC or the UK Government’s official policies. Responsibility for the views expressed in this publication remains solely with the authors. Contribution The authors would like to thank all DEC and DEC partners’ team members, as well as crisis affected households who contributed to the success of the review by sharing their views and insights. A special thanks goes to the DEC Secretariat for its continuous support throughout the review process. Collaboration The DEC and the Humanitarian Coalition (HC) in Canada have made an ongoing commitment to collaborate, where appropriate, when undertaking such reviews due to a significant overlap in membership.1 In this instance, Care, Islamic Relief Worldwide, Oxfam, Plan International and Save the Children are shared DEC/HC responders, along with a number of local/national partners. While it was not considered necessary for the Humanitarian Coalition programmes to be assessed separately, the head office in Canada actively contributed to the inception phase, sent a senior representative to accompany field work in Zimbabwe, and participated in the learning workshops in both Zimbabwe and Mozambique.

  • Significance to Climate Change and Forcing Abstract Ther
    An overview of the swell dynamics and their implications over Africa: significance to climate change and forcing Abstract There is a growing interest in climate dynamics as the quantity and quality of new observational and theoretical applications are increasing. The ideas involved in understanding large-scale atmosphere-land-ocean dynamics and their interactions continue to hold special fascination because of their central importance for both theoretical and practical applications. This paper presents a theoretical assessment of the African swell dynamics imploring atmospheric formulation. Africa exhibits substantial inter-annual and inter-decadal climatic variability due to cyclone activity, storm surges and sea waves. Most of these surges and corresponding swell trains form over the tropical environment as easterly waves propagate westward across the Indian Ocean primarily between 10° and 20° S, termed source region. Localized sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and ocean upwelling play a vital role to provide moist enthalpy to power the surges. Also, multi-decadal variations in major wave activity are associated with SST changes in the Atlantic because tropical North Atlantic correlates positively with major hurricane activity. A key remote factor is temperature variability in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific associated with El Niño Southern Oscillation. The continuous erosion, perennial ocean surges, coastal swells and associated flooding due to the wave energy and its pounding effect are of great concern. Just like in most parts of the world where development of these systems is critical, they need to be closely watched particularly over southern Africa. Key Words: climate dynamics; swell train; source region; wave energy; ocean surge.
