“…Sehingga terdapat banyak korban jiwa ketika tanah longsor terjadi, dan juga kurangnya kesadaran masyarakat tentang kerentanan bencana tanah longsor serta upaya mitigasinya. Menurut (Sumy et al, 2023) pentingnya meningkatkan pengetahuan tentang bencana tanah longsor harus disosialisasikan terutama anak di usia sekolah dasar yang masih belum memahami tentang tindakan apa yang harus mereka lakukan ketika tanah longsor terjadi. pentingnya penerapan pendidikan kesiapsiagaan bencana tanah longsor di sekolah perlu dilakukan sejak dini guna memberikan pendalaman pengetahuan serta kesiapan terhadap tindakan-tindakan yang perlu dilakukan sebelum/pada saat terjadi bencana tanah longsor yang tidak terduga untuk meminimalisir segala dampak yang akan terjadi.…”

Landslide is a disaster that occurs every year in Indonesia. Landslide disasters can result in complex losses, both loss of facilities and casualties. Landslides have the greatest impact on the most vulnerable groups, especially the children age group. This is because children directly experience, feel, and witness the impact caused by the age factor that is still immature psychologically. Efforts that can be made to reduce the impact of the disaster, one of which is to control the risk of landslides by increasing preparedness. This study provides education to students using audio- visual animation media which contains material on preparedness in the face of landslides. To determine the level of disaster preparedness knowledge of SMA 12 Semarang students before and after being given education using animated audio- visual It can be concluded that there is an increase in knowledge of disaster preparedness for students of SMA 12 Semarang before and after being given education using anıması audio- visual media. It is hoped that disaster preparedness education using animated media at SMA 12 Semarang can be applied continuously to students as an effort to anticipate disaster preparedness.

From alert to action: earthquake early warning and deaf communities

Earthquake early warning (EEW) alerts may give people valuable seconds to take protective action, such as drop, cover and hold on, before earthquake shaking starts. In order for individuals to take protective action, they need to receive the alert, understand the alert message, and have enough contextual knowledge to take appropriate protective action. Deaf and hard of hearing (DHH+) persons do not have equitable access to earthquake information, warning systems, training, and participation in disaster decision-making at all levels. Despite international policies for emergency alerts to be accessible to people with disabilities, there are no research publications that specifically address the effectiveness of EEW alerts for DHH+ communities. Missed notifications and misunderstandings about elements of the EEW alert message can delay the response time of DHH+ persons. Furthermore, unequal access to earthquake drills and preparedness information can leave DHH+ persons with insufficient context to take protective action when receiving alerts. The existing gaps in effectiveness of the EEW alerts stem from language inequities for DHH+ persons in our schools, workplaces and families, which we analyze by applying linguistic anthropological and sociolinguistic frameworks to examine the nexus of DHH+ communities’ languages and EEW messaging. To advance language equity in EEW alerting, inclusion of DHH+ communities can improve messaging and reduce misunderstandings so that DHH+ persons can quickly take protective action when they receive an alert.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)-operated ShakeAlert® system is the United States West Coast earthquake early warning system (Given et al., 2018). In this study we detail ShakeAlert’s performance during some of the largest events seen by the system thus far. Statewide public alerting using ShakeAlert messages was authorized in California in October 2019. Over the next few years, public alerts were expanded into Oregon and then into Washington (U.S. Geological Survey, 2024). ShakeAlert source results are routinely compared to the USGS Comprehensive Catalog (ComCat; Guy et al., 2015; U.S. Geological Survey, Earthquake Hazards Program, 2017), which contains the earthquake location and magnitude determined using complete waveform data. M 4.5 and larger is the threshold used for public alerting and was deliberately set below the level where damage is likely to compensate for cases where the system underestimates the magnitude. Between 17 October 2019 and 1 September 2023, the ShakeAlert system created 95 events with maximum magnitude estimates of M ≥4.5, the public alerting threshold. 94 of the 95 events were due to real earthquakes. Seven were categorized “false” per ShakeAlert’s internal definition that there was no matching catalog event within 100 km and 30 s of origin time; however, all but one of these were real earthquakes that were poorly located, primarily because they were at the edges of the seismic network. Three detected events were labeled “missed” because they were very poorly located (>100 km location error). In addition, the system did not produce solutions for four ComCat events M ≥4.5 (U.S. Geological Survey, Earthquake Hazards Program, 2017), which were all at the edge of the alerting and network boundaries. The ShakeAlert system has accurately detected the majority of earthquakes that have occurred within the operational region since completing the public rollout, and alerts from the system have been delivered to millions of cell phone users throughout the West Coast.
