水——地球生命的血液 人类生命的源泉

世界水资源状况全世界总贮水量为13.6亿km~3,地球表面有2/3被水覆盖,但是其中97.5％是海水。 淡水资源包括极地的冰盖,只占地球总水量的1％。在这1％中,有75％用于农业,有24％用于工业,用于人类日常所需仅是这百分之一中的1％。     

世界水日

正3月22日是世界水日。由于全球淡水资源分布不均、管理不善、环境变化以及基础设施投入不足等原因,全球目前约有1/5的人无法获得安全饮用水,40%的人缺乏基本卫生设施。据联合国统计,世界上许多国家正面临水资源危机:11亿人用水短缺,每年有310万人死于与水有关的疾病;到2025年,水危机将蔓延到48个国家,35亿人为水所困。为了唤起公众的水意识,建立一种更为全面的水资源可持续利用的体制和相应的运行机制,1993年1月18日,第47届联合国大会根据联合国环境与

A Research Note about Military-Civilian Humanitarianism: More Questions than Answers

'Military-civilian humanitarianism'— or the coming together of military forces and civilian aid agencies to deal with the human suffering from complex emergencies — has numerous forms, but disenchantment has resulted from the Somalia and Bosnia syndromes. There is little political will at present, but evidence from the immediate post-Cold War era suggests how multilateral military operations could expand or contract in future to the benefit or peril of war victims. Partly a literature review but more importantly a framework for interpreting recent publications, this essay seeks to move beyond exchanging assertions. There is a contextualisation of recent literature; a definition of military-civilian humanitarianism; a discussion of possible military contributions to humanitarian action; a framework to assess the effectiveness of military-civilian humanitarianism; and a preliminary analysis of experience from northern Iraq, Somalia, Bosnia, Rwanda and Haiti. Caveat lector : At this point in time, there are still 'more questions than answers'.

溧阳市社区居民防震减灾科学素质调查研究

为了解溧阳地震四十年来该地居民防震减灾科学素质情况,通过问卷调查的方式对社区居民的个人基本信息、防震减灾科学知识理解、知识需求和偏好,以及对江苏省防震减灾科普宣教工作的评价进行调研。采用SPSS软件进行数据处理。结果表明,溧阳市社区居民防震减灾科学知识水平处于中等偏上水平,但对地震预报信息发布和相关法律法规认知方面还有欠缺;防震减灾知识需求强烈且务实,最想了解的是自救互救知识,偏好科普讲座和应急演练活动;对我省防震减灾科普宣传工作的评价为中等偏上,在评价过程中,最主要的影响因子是防震减灾科普知识实用性、宣传品质和渠道。本次调查为今后开展溧阳市社区防震减灾科普宣传工作提供了理论依据。     

Forgetting about hazard

Abstract

This paper examines long-term recovery outcomes of businesses impacted by major natural disasters. Data were collected via two large-scale mail surveys—one administered to Santa Cruz County, California businesses 8 years after the Loma Prieta earthquake and the other administered to businesses in South Dade County, Florida, 6 years after Hurricane Andrew. Based on the results of OLS regression models, we argue that long-term recovery experiences of businesses are affected by various factors, including the economic sector in which a business operates, its age and financial condition, and the scope of its primary market; direct and indirect disaster impacts, including physical damage, forced closure, and disruption of operations; and owner perceptions of the broader economic climate. Previous disaster experience, level of disaster preparedness, and use of external sources of aid were not found to significantly affect the long-term economic viability of businesses in the two study communities.     

集中式饮用水水源地安全预警系统框架的研建

随着经济迅速发展和工业化进程的加快.人水矛盾日益尖锐,水源地水质污染、水量衰竭已成为一个全球性问题,加之频繁发生的水源地突发性事故,致使区域发展、国家安全乃至人类生存受到严重的威胁.通过集中式饮用水水源地安全风险分析,明确饮用水水源地内涵,从一般的安全预警体系出发建立了饮用水水源地安全预警逻辑体系;构建了基于DPSR概念模型的水源地预警指标体系框架,建立了BP安全预警模型;最终形成了完整的集中式饮用水水源地安全预警管理框架体系.     

城市水源地突发性水污染事故思考

在介绍水源地突发性水污染事故的概念、类型和包括突发性、不确定性、多样性、扩散性、危害性和艰巨性等基本特点的基础上,从水源地应急监测系统、资料匮乏、后续处置、结构单一和协调机制等方面分析了水源地的安全性,构建了包括应急处理系统、法律法规体系、预警系统、动态监测、联动机制和应急预案等方面的水源地突发性水污染应急对策系统。
