A.2, B.2, & C.2 – DRAFT CLIMATE CHANGE RISK & ASSET MAPPING—YEAR 2 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Coastal Community Adaptation Project (C-CAP) is an implementation-oriented initiative designed to increase Pacific Island communities’ resilience to the current and projected impacts of climate change. C- CAP is building on a foundation of ongoing national-level climate programs and vulnerability assessments in the Pacific Islands region by instituting community-level climate change adaptation projects, establishing and/or strengthening disaster risk preparedness plans and initiatives, and adopting climate-smart land use plans that address long-term climate projections. Outside of these concrete deliverables, C-CAP is about more than supporting construction / rehabilitation of community infrastructure; it’s about helping beneficiary communities to: Better understand the causes of climate change; Learn about and access studies on climate change impacts and projections; Distinguish between impacts caused by climate change, human activity (like deforestation), and regular weather events; and Use and share lessons from C-CAP to make better infrastructure, disaster preparedness and land use planning decisions after the program ends. Climate Change Gap Analyses, Participatory Risk Mapping, and Risk & Asset (Infrastructure) Maps are the foundation of these efforts. In Year 1 of C-CAP implementation (October 2012 – September 2013), C-CAP completed these activities in 20 communities in Fiji, Papua New Guinea (PNG), Samoa and Tonga. In Year 2 (October 2013 – September 2014), C-CAP continues implementation in the 20 Year 1 communities across Fiji (5), PNG (5), Samoa (5), and Tonga (5) while launching activities in an additional 52 communities: Twenty (20) new communities across Fiji, PNG, Samoa, and Tonga (five per country); Twenty (20) communities across Nauru and Vanuatu (10 per country); Ten (10) communities (5 per country) across Kiribati and Solomon Islands; and Two (2) communities in Tuvalu. C-CAP’s engagement in these five new countries—Kiribati, Nauru, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu—will extend the program reach to nine Pacific Island Countries—each country earmarked for infrastructure activity support. This report includes 52 community reports—from nine countries—which encompass completion of Deliverables: 2.1.A.2—Conduct gap analysis of existing vulnerability assessments; 2.1.B.2—Lead participatory risk mapping exercise; and 2.1.C.2—Update community hazard, risk and/or vulnerability maps. 1 DELIVERABLES 2.1.

  • Declines of Seagrasses in a Tropical Harbour, North Queensland, Australia, Are Not the Result of a Single Event
    Declines of seagrasses in a tropical harbour, North Queensland, Australia, are not the result of a single event SKYE MCKENNA*, JESSIE JARVIS, TONIA SANKEY, CARISSA REASON, ROBERT COLES and MICHAEL RASHEED Centre for Tropical Water and Aquatic Ecosystem Research, James Cook University, Queensland, Australia *Corresponding author (Email, [email protected]) A recent paper inferred that all seagrass in Cairns Harbour, tropical north-eastern Australia, had undergone ‘complete and catastrophic loss’ as a result of tropical cyclone Yasi in 2011. While we agree with the concern expressed, we would like to correct the suggestion that the declines were the result of a single climatic event and that all seagrass in Cairns Harbour were lost. Recent survey data and trend analysis from an on-ground monitoring program show that seagrasses in Cairns Harbour do remain, albeit at low levels, and the decline in seagrasses occurred over several years with cyclone Yasi having little additional impact. We have conducted annual on-ground surveys of seagrass distribution and the above-ground meadow biomass in Cairns Harbour and Trinity Inlet since 2001. This has shown a declining trend in biomass since a peak in 2004 and in area since it peaked in 2007. In 2012, seagrass area and above-ground biomass were significantly below the long-term (12 year) average but seagrass was still present. Declines were associated with regional impacts on coastal seagrasses from multiple years of above-average rainfall and severe storm and cyclone activity, similar to other nearby seagrass areas, and not as a result of a single event. [McKenna S, Jarvis J, Sankey T, Reason C, Coles R and Rasheed M 2015 Declines of seagrasses in a tropical harbour, North Queensland, Australia, are not the result of a single event.

  • 51042 Vanuatu Tanna FACT SHEET
    TRAVEL WITH CHRIS BROWN VANUATU: TANNA VOLCANO When most people think of island getaways, they think of resorts and umbrella drinks... but this week, Chris is headed to an island getaway with a difference. On Vanuatu’s Tanna Island, Chris gets to visit an active volcano but first he needs to get some courage and words of advice from the Chief of a black magic village. Will this be enough to get him to the top of Mt Yasur? And will he make it back to tell his tale? VANUATU FAST FACTS: • Officially named the Republic of Vanuatu. • An island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. The archipelago, which is of volcanic origin, is some 1,750 kilometres (1,090 mi) east of northern Australia. • Capital City is Port Vila (on the island of Efate) • Local currency: Vatu (VT) • There are over 120 distinct languages and many more dialects in Vanuatu but 3 official languages: English, French and Bislama (pidgin English). • Vanuatu was first inhabited by Melanesian people. TANNA ISLAND ABOUT: • The island is 40 km (25 mi) long and 19 km (12 mi) wide, with a total area of 565 km². • Tanna means ‘earth’ in Tannese. • Tanna is best known as the home to one of Vanuatu’s most popular tourist attractions, the Mount Yasur volcano. Considered one of the world’s safest and most accessible volcanoes, Mt Yasur is just a two hour drive from Tanna’s White Grass Airport followed by a short 15/20 minute walk to the crater rim. • Today Tanna is one of the Islands where culture and custom are still very strong.
