The prominent character of geodiversity, biodiversity, and cultural diversity in Bayah Dome coastal has encouraged the Lebak Regency government to promote Bayah Dome Geopark (BDG) in 2020. On the other side, the potential hazards of an earthquake and tsunami originating from the subduction zone on the south coast of the BDG will increase the vulnerability of the community. This study aims to develop a social vulnerability model for the tsunami disaster in the BDG area based on the population potentially exposed to the disaster and the vulnerable group’s ratio parameters. This research was conducted in six sub-districts in the southern part of the BDG coastal area. The results show the Bayah and Malingping sub-districts have the highest level of social vulnerability. Bayah District in 2019 was the highest with a score of 2.0, this was due to the high number of tourist visitors. Meanwhile, Wanasalam, Cilograng, Panggarangan, and Cihara have low social vulnerability classes with a score of 1.4. Therefore, it is recommended to prioritize social intervention for Bayah and Malingping sub-districts to upgrade community capacity for tsunami hazards.

Earthquake preparedness in an urban area: the case of Dhaka city, Bangladesh

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This study aims to assess people’s preparedness for a potential earthquake in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. We have employed a model with six dimensions of holistic individual preparedness. A self-reported online survey included 677 total participants. The multiple linear regression model and the Spearman rank correlation were used as needed. The majority of the participants (> 65%) did not have experience with any earthquake preparedness program, despite the fact that 92% of the population surveyed claimed to have experienced an earthquake in their region. More than 50% of those who experienced earthquakes acquired knowledge. 30% of people do not have access to immediate financial support in the event of a crisis. It was estimated that almost 50% of the population did not have earthquake insurance. Females lack the adaptability of males. A person’s level of earthquake preparedness was significantly associated with their level of education, household head occupation and monthly income, type of residential unit, and experience of earthquake preparedness program. Therefore, these factors should be considered while figuring out how to better prepare for earthquakes. A combination of holistic earthquake preparedness programs and effective education is generally required for competent holistic earthquake preparedness.
