Автор: Jagbir Singh Название: Disaster Management: Future Challenges and Opportunities ISBN: 818986646X ISBN-13(EAN): 9788189866464 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 32340.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Provides thorough information, supported by the most recent data, and practical ideas concerning disaster management at the local, regional, national, and international levels. Discusses the role of warning systems, remote sensing, GPS (Global Positioning System) and GIS (Geographical Information System).
When natural disasters and emergencies strike, the short- and long-term effects of these events on first responders—the very people society relies upon in the midst of a catastrophe—are often overlooked. Policing in Natural Disasters provides a comprehensive analysis of the major challenges faced by law enforcement officers during extreme crisis events. Terri Adams and Leigh Anderson examine the dilemmas police departments face as well as the impact of the disasters on the professional and personal lives of the officers. Case studies explore the response and recovery phases of emergencies including Hurricane Katrina, the 2010 earthquake and subsequent tsunami in Santiago, Chile, and the Superstorm Tornado Outbreak in 2011.
Policing in Natural Disasters was inspired by the personal accounts of triumph and tragedy shared by first responders. It provides an understanding of first-responder behaviors during disasters, as well as the preparedness, mitigation, response and recovery policy implications for first responders and emergency managers. As first responders must frequently cope with stress, uncertainty, and threats to their health and safety during high-consequence events, Adams and Anderson provide lessons from first-hand experiences of police officers that can lead to better management in times of crisis.
Автор: Ajay Sharma Название: Mountain Hazards and Disaster Risk Reduction ISBN: 1681171317 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781681171319 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 230210.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This book discussed on mountain regions occupy approximately one fifth of the Earths land surface and cover 54 % of Asias land mass. Mountain ranges create diverse ecosystems, sanctuaries for plant and animal species, and shelter for 10 % of the worlds population. Mountains are the sources of 80 % of the Earths surface water, important not only for mountain communities but also for billions of people living in the plains. Mountains trap moisture from air masses, which is precipitated in the form of snow that melts in spring and summer, flows to the plains, and becomes a lifeline for agriculture and industrial activities. With such multifunctionality, mountains serve not only as a source of ecological and food security for billions of people, but also act as buffers against natural hazards. However, mountains are very sensitive to environmental change and are a barometer for climate change. A change in temperature can disrupt a mountain system in the form of melting glaciers, soil erosion, landslides, rockfalls, floods, and avalanches.
