“…This is the case of Haiti, whose territory is, nevertheless, highly exposed to natural 50 disasters (Khouakhi et al, 2017;Burgess et al, 2018), and which will, moreover, tend to increase due to climate change (Peterson et al, 2002). At the same time, Haiti is facing the consequences of massive deforestation and anarchic urbanization in recent decades (Hedges et al, 2018;Tarter et al, 2018;Mompremier et al, 2022), resulting in increased vulnerability to hydroclimatic hazards. Currently, there is no freely and easily accessible hydroclimatic database in Haiti.…”

Abstract. The Caribbean country of Haiti is highly exposed to hydroclimatic hazards. However, there is no usable database that is easily accessible to the scientific community for this area. To fill this gap, hydroclimatic data were collected to create the first historical database in Haiti. This database, called "Simbi" (guardian of rivers, freshwater, and rain in Haitian mythology), includes 156 monthly rainfall series over the period 1905–2005, 59 daily rainfall series over the period 1920–1940, 70 daily streamflow series, and 23 monthly temperature series, not necessarily continuous, over the period 1920–1940. It also provides simulated streamflow series over the period 1920–1940 using the GR2M and GR4J rainfall–runoff models for 24 catchments and 48 attributes covering a wide range of topographic, climatic, geological, land use, hydrogeological, and hydrological signature indices. The database will be regularly updated to include additional historical data that will be digitized in the future. It will thus contribute toward better knowledge of the hydrology of Haitian catchments and will enable the implementation of various hydrological calculations useful for designing structures or flow forecasting. Simbi is an open access database and is available for download at: https://doi.org/10.23708/02POK6 (Bathelemy et al., 2023).

Diplomatie ist eine Form der Vermittlung, bei der Konfliktparteien in Dialog treten und ihre Positionen sichtbar und streitbar machen, so dass Übereinkünfte möglich werden. Antje Schneider greift dieses Postulat für Haitis sozial-ökologischen Krisenkomplex und entwicklungspolitische Interventionen auf. Mit Diplomatie als Erkenntnisweg im Feld gelingt es ihr, Situationen sozial- und naturräumlicher Zerstörung als Folge einer Interventionskultur zu lesen, die ihre Deutungsansprüche auf die Natur und die Krisen unhinterfragt durchsetzt. Dabei veranschaulicht sie, wie sich dieses paradox-feindselige Konfliktmuster mit Diplomatie als taktvoller Vermittlung bearbeiten lässt.
