Faced with sea level rise and the intensification of extreme events, human populations living on coasts are developing responses to address local situations. A synthesis literature coastal adaptation allows us highlight different strategies. Here, we analyze these strategies according complexity their implementation, both institutionally technically. First, distinguish two opposing paradigms – fighting against rising levels or adapting new climatic conditions; second, observe integrated...
Recent tsunamis, especially after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, provided a better understanding and knowledge of tsunami science as well on how to build awareness preparedness. However, tsunamis that happened before 2004, there is limited and/or scattered data, information, records, reports events. In addition, either or no eyewitness’s story documented, including pictures videos. The lack information makes it difficult for policymakers, researchers, other institutions disseminate local...
Following the 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Tohoku earthquakes tsunamis, there has been steady progress in tsunami science preparedness worldwide. Currently, are four Tsunami Warning Mitigation Systems as Intergovernmental Coordination Groups (ICGs) coordinated by IOC/UNESCO. They include monitoring, warning, response. mostly based on scientific knowledge including hazard assessments, 24/7 monitoring systems, agreed operational standard procedures (SOPs), redundant communication community...
