non structural mitigation measures :
The amount of structural and geological damage done by an earthquake in a specific location determines an earthquake's intensity on the Mercalli scale.
The National Cyclone Risk Mitigation Process was launched in India. The main objectives of the project are to minimize risk and vulnerabilities to cyclones, to strengthen the structural and non-structural cyclone mitigation efforts and to build capabilities and capacities of people for cyclone risk mitigation in harmony with the conservation of coastal ecosystems in coastal cyclone hazard prone States and Union Territories.Mitigation means "measures taken in advance that are aimed to decrease or eliminate the impact of disasters on the community and environment". Today, the Policy makers and Disaster Management specialists are rethinking their approach to disaster management by increasing investment in risk reduction & mitigation measures rather than concentrating on post disaster response (relief & reconstruction).The Mitigation Strategies could be✓ Proper infrastructure development for providing accurate and prompt cyclone warning.✓ Design and construction of robust buildings, roads, bridges and other infrastructure besides"Cyclone proof" buildings, which have storage and sleeping areas high off the ground anduse water-resistant materials.✓ Hazard reduction by trying to control the hazard in advance, such as, seawalls, diversiondrains, coastal shelterbelts, protection and promotion of natural sea side vegetation (mangrove)etc.✓ Land use planning, which "builds in" a distance between the hazard and the community.✓ Management of Delta Zones.✓ Contingency Plans at all levels (community, government and civil society), which includedisaster mitigation strategies.✓ Awareness and Educational campaigns that provide advice to the community on cyclonepreparedness as well as mitigations measures✓ Develop healthy partnerships between stakeholders at all levels -especially government,private sector and the community to achieve sustainable mitigation strategies.

- developing proper earthquake early warning system--effective disaster management mechanism--Future earthquakes can't be avoided, but preparedness and safe building construction practices can certainly reduce the extent of damage and loss.--remedial measures to be taken for structural safety and knowledge of what should be done before, during and after an earthquake.--prevention is always better --so new settlements should not be built at earthquake prone zonesthe government can help by making more structural buildings or even giving us earlier warnings to preparego to the high building
The Richter scale is not a linear scale. This means that an earthquake of magnitude 6 does not have twice as destructive power as the earthquake of magnitude 3. Actually, an earthquake with magnitude 5 is ten times more destructive than an earthquake of magnitude 4. The Richter scale is a logarithmic scale.
The structural and non structural mitigation of drought is the displacement of people. Death of livestock and plants is another structural and non-structural mitigation of drought.
i am finding it................
displacement of people
there are two types; structural and non structural
i thik it would be...........
mitigation efforts help the people by creating safer communites and reducing loss of life and property is called mitigation
Structural Mitigation:- • Increase the river dike heights • Evacuation routes identification • Retrofitting of vulnerable structures for tsunami resistance • Engineered structures • Tsunami water breaks • Sea walls & coral reefs Non structural Mitigation:- • Public Awareness • Hazard mapping & vulnerability analysis • Risk identification, zoning & mapping • Training of all concerned • Land Use Management • Tsunami warning system
Building earthquake-resistant structures n earthquake zones is a mitigation activity.
displacement of people
welcome
make buildings on stilits...
An example of a mitigation activity is installing a flood barrier to reduce the impact of flooding on a community. This proactive measure helps prevent damage to properties and infrastructure by diverting or containing floodwaters.
