Uttarakhand
The document summarizes the 2013 Uttarakhand floods in India. Heavy rainfall and cloudbursts in June 2013 caused devastating floods and landslides in the northern state of Uttarakhand. Over 580 people were killed and thousands more were reported missing or displaced. Both natural factors like heavy rainfall and cloud bursts, as well as man-made factors like deforestation, construction, and hydroelectric projects contributed to the scale of the disaster. Major rescue efforts were launched involving the Indian armed forces, disaster response teams, and state and international assistance.
Uttrakhand disaster
The document discusses the 2013 Uttarakhand floods in India. It provides an overview of Uttarakhand and describes the heavy rainfall and flooding that occurred in June 2013, which led to widespread destruction and over 5,000 deaths. It also discusses the economic and infrastructure damage caused, rescue efforts, and potential causes of the disaster like glacial melting, deforestation, and hydroelectric construction.
Flash flood disaster like situation flood.pptx
India is highly vulnerable to floods, with over 40 million hectares of land flood-prone. An average of 75 lakh hectares is affected by floods annually, resulting in 1600 deaths and Rs. 1805 crores in damage. Flash floods occur rapidly, within 6 hours of heavy rain, and can have devastating impacts such as destruction of infrastructure. The 2013 Uttarakhand floods provide a case study, with over 5000 deaths resulting from heavy rain that triggered landslides and flash flooding. While natural, environmentalists believe construction and unplanned development exacerbated the impacts. Relief efforts required a coordinated response from multiple agencies.
Himalayan tsunami
The document summarizes the 2013 Himalayan tsunami that caused devastating floods and landslides in the Indian state of Uttarakhand from June 14-17. It describes how unusually heavy rainfall of over 375% of the normal amount, combined with other factors like construction, tourism development, and climate change, led to flash floods and landslides that caused widespread destruction and over 10,000 deaths. It discusses the emergency response and relief efforts by government agencies and militaries to conduct search, rescue and evacuation operations in the difficult terrain. It concludes that while heavy rainfall triggered the natural disaster, human activities like infrastructure development contributed greatly to its large scale impacts.
Kedarnath flood
The document summarizes the 2013 floods in Uttarakhand, India. Heavy rainfall from 14-17 June 2013 caused devastating floods and landslides, especially in Kedarnath. Over 800 people died and over 1800 went missing. The floods damaged homes, bridges and roads. While officially deemed a natural disaster, unchecked development and hydroelectric projects disrupted water balances and contributed to the floods. Massive rescue operations involving the military helped evacuate over 18,000 people. The floods showed that environmental degradation increased the region's vulnerability to natural disasters.
The Kedarnath Trajedy
The document summarizes the 2013 Kedarnath tragedy in Uttarakhand, India. Heavy rainfall between June 15-18, 2013 triggered devastating floods and landslides that killed thousands. The rains were about 375% heavier than normal. The collapse of the moraine-dammed Chorabari Glacier lake also contributed to the floods. While natural factors played a role, environmental degradation from deforestation, construction, and tourism development exacerbated the impacts. The disaster destroyed homes and infrastructure, with thousands dead or missing. Rescue efforts involved military, police, and disaster response teams. The long-term recovery required rehabilitation of livelihoods and infrastructure, along with disaster preparedness reforms.

CAUSES AND DISASTER RISK REDUCTION MEASURES FOR HYDROMETEROLOGICAL DISASTER I...
The document discusses causes and risk reduction measures for hydrometeorological disasters in the Western Himalaya region of India. It notes that such disasters are caused by natural atmospheric, hydrological or oceanographic events like floods, cyclones, droughts, and landslides. Specific disasters that affect the Western Himalaya include heavy rainfall, floods, hailstorms, cloud bursts, heat and cold waves, snow avalanches, droughts, and thunder and lightning. Climate change can impact atmospheric conditions and intensify these events. Geological factors like loose rock strata and unfavorable slopes also contribute to landslides and mudflows. Growing population has led to unscientific land use and development activities that further increase disaster risks

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
