Kerala urgently needs to identify risk zones

 (The Hindu, 05-10-24)

Context: Increasing vulnerability of Kerala to natural disasters, particularly landslides and floods

On July 30, Wayanad district of Kerala, were hit by landslides and CM notes that the disaster ranked among the deadliest in India

 

What specific disasters is Kerala facing?

  • Coastal erosion affecting over 250 km of coastline
  • Floods in lowlands and midlands
  • Landslides in the Western Ghats
  • Cyclones like Ockhi in 2017

 

Why is Kerala becoming more vulnerable to natural disasters?

  • Climate change causing increased intensity and frequency of disasters Ex: Rapid warming of the Arabian Sea leading to extreme weather events
  • Extensive deforestation in the Western Ghats has reduced the natural buffer against heavy rainfall and increased soil erosion, making the region more prone to landslides.
  • Unregulated quarrying and mining in hilly areas have destabilized slopes and increased the risk of landslides.
  • Rapid urbanization has led to the construction of buildings in flood-prone areas and on unstable slopes, increasing vulnerability to floods and landslides.
  • Many rivers and lakes in Kerala have become shallower due to siltation, reducing their capacity to hold excess water during heavy rains.
  • Shift from traditional crops to cash crops in hilly areas has altered the soil structure and water retention capacity.
  • Disregard for natural drainage and slope stability in infrastructure development
  • Improper management of dams and reservoirs during heavy rainfall can contribute to downstream flooding.
  • Destruction of mangrove forests along the coast has reduced natural protection against storm surges and coastal erosion.

 

What paradigm shift is proposed for disaster management in Kerala?

  • Moving from reactive to proactive and comprehensive approach
  • Adopting the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction
  • Working out disaster risk zones based on multiple criteria
  • Preparation of landslide susceptibility maps considering various factors
  • Monitoring triggering mechanisms like rainfall or tremors
  • Involvement of state and local self-help groups in monitoring
  • Adopting a quadruple helix model involving community, academia, government, and industry

 

Can you answer the following question?

Discuss why coastal states like Kerala is becoming increasingly vulnerable to natural disasters? How can the state effectively implement a disaster risk management system to enhance its resilience against such calamities?

The other monsoon

(The Hindu, 05-10-24)

 

2024’s northeast monsoon is expected to be ‘above normal’ or about 12% over the historical average

  • Potentially supported by a La Nina event (cooling of the equatorial central Pacific)
  • If accurate, it will be the second consecutive year of a normal northeast monsoon

 

What is the northeast monsoon and why is it significant?

  • It brings rain to parts of coastal Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and southern Karnataka
  • Main source of rainfall for Tamil Nadu
  • Contributes about 11% of India’s annual rainfall
  • Significantly affects rice and maize productivity in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh

 

How does the northeast monsoon differ from the southwest monsoon?

  • Occurs after the withdrawal of the southwest monsoon in mid-October
  • Characterized by a reversal of winds
  • Has a higher variation (25%) compared to southwest monsoon (10%)
  • Results in years of massive deluge followed by dry spells

 

What challenges exist in forecasting and managing the northeast monsoon?

  • Global models have struggled to forecast the timing of La Nina this year
  • More focus needed on modelling its impact on urban flooding
  • Climate change uncertainty makes accurate prognosis essential
  • Disaster management agencies need to develop strategies to incorporate these uncertainties

 

Can you answer the following question?

Discuss the significance of the northeast monsoon for India’s agriculture and water resources.
