How can we predict tsunamis? (3)
bouis out at sea send messages
volcano gas emissions ratio o sulphur to oxygen ratio high
In-fared tech see where magma is
What is the risk disk?
a model to help better understand disaster management
(RD) Disaster preparedness?
disaster plans and management eg early warning systems, evacuation, training and public awareness
(RD) Disaster response?
coordination, quick response (relief) and local participation
(RD) Disaster recovery?
Assessment of risks, local partners, livelihoods rebuilt, risk reduction for future
(RD) disaster mitigation?

(RD) development?
mainstream risk assessment, strengthen lively hoods, sustainable agriculture and resource use and minimal corruption
(RD) Adaptation to climate change?
Disaster preparedness and migration, coastal retreat, local coping strategies, adaptation funds and reduction in emissions

coordination, local participation in helping during a disaster
How do the local government respond to a hazard?
Assess risk- less lively hoods being rebuilt
offer education and training (public awareness)
early warning systems
What are the stages before the event of the risk disk?
Prevention and mitigation
Preparation
What are the stages after the event of the risk disk?
Response and recovery
What is the Park Model?
Sketches the phases following the tectonic hazard
What is the relief phase in the park model?
Immediate response, saving lives and properties
What is the rehabilitation phase in the park model?
may last several months, efforts made to restore physical structures
