Book Synopsis Hurricanes by : Roger A. Pielke, Sr.
Download or read book Hurricanes written by Roger A. Pielke, Sr. and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Losses to hurricanes in the 1990s total more than those incurred in the 1970s and 1980s combined, even after adjusting for inflation. This has led many to mistakenly conclude that severe hurricanes are becoming more frequent. In fact, according to recent research, the past few decades have seen a decrease in the frequency of severe storms and 1991 to 1994 was the quietest in at least 50 years. It does mean, however, that the world today is more vulnerable to hurricane impacts than it has ever been, which represents a serious policy problem. This book defines and assesses the hurricane problem, focusing primarily on the United States, in order to lay a foundation for action. The concept of vulnerability is used to integrate the societal and physical aspects of hurricane impacts. The book is unique in that it seeks to address both the scientific and societal aspects of hurricanes. While it focuses on the United States, it is intended to illustrate weather related impacts assessment that could be applied in other areas, and for phenomena other than hurricanes. More broadly, this book seeks to illustrate the beneficial uses (as well as limitations) of hurricane science to society. Explicit consideration of the relationship between science and society is much needed in an era when scientific research is under public and political pressure to demonstrate a better connection with societal needs.

Book Synopsis Guide to NOAA Response and Communication Protocols for Human Caused and Natural Disasters in the Great Lakes by :
Download or read book Guide to NOAA Response and Communication Protocols for Human Caused and Natural Disasters in the Great Lakes written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This Guide is designed to enhance coordination of NOAA's diverse expertise, services, and resources when responding to a Great Lakes natural or anthropogenic emergency that involves a threat or damage to human health or life, to property, or to the environment. This Guide addresses the following emergencies: 1) an oil spill, hazardous chemical release, or maritime accident; 2) a large-scale fire event; 2) a large-scale or high-impact weather event; or 4) a radiological release. For many emergencies, only one NOAA Line Office is needed to provide an effective response. When two or more NOAA Line Offices are involved in a large-scale event, however, clear and efficient communication and coordination are needed to simultaneously provide a high level of service and efficiently utilize NOAA's own expertise and resources"--Preface.
Book Synopsis Noaa by : U.s. Government Accountability Office
Download or read book Noaa written by U.s. Government Accountability Office and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-02 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a hurricane, assessing damage caused by different perils, such as high winds or flooding, is especially challenging when all that is left after the storm is a structure's foundation. For these properties, there may not be enough physical evidence to determine the extent to which damage was caused by wind versus flooding. Private property-casualty insurers typically cover wind damage but exclude coverage for flood damage. The National Flood Insurance Program, administered by the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), provides federally backed coverage for flood damage. After the hurricane season in 2005, legal disputes arose between private property-casualty insurers and policyholders over interpretation of policy language that excluded coverage of damage caused concurrently or sequentially by a covered peril—wind—and an excluded peril—flooding.

Book Synopsis Seeking Value by : Wesley E. Sowers, M.D.
Download or read book Seeking Value written by Wesley E. Sowers, M.D. and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. health care system is the most expensive in the world by a considerable margin, yet health indicators are among the worst in the developed world. Seeking Value: Balancing Cost and Quality in Psychiatric Care, a comprehensive volume by the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry's Mental Health Services Committee, examines the factors that have contributed to this disparity and offers a holistic vision for health care reform--one in which the psychiatric profession plays a pivotal role. From cost consciousness in the prescribing of medications and forming alliances with other health professionals to rethinking the way health care is financed and efforts to eliminate counterproductive incarceration practices, this guide outlines individual, systemic, and sociopolitical interventions that will position readers to effect substantive change both in the short term and in the long term. Beyond spurring thought and conversation around how to improve value in the services the psychiatric profession provides and the systems in which it operates, this book will equip those looking to develop a concrete advocacy agenda and the strategies needed to see it realized.
Download or read book Hurricanes written by Henry F. Diaz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hurricanes of the North Atlantic Ocean have left their imprint on the landscape and human cultures for thousands of years. In modern times, fewer lifes have been lost due, in part, to the development of modern communication systems, and to improved understanding of the mechanisms of storm formation and movement. However, the immense growth of human populations in coastal areas, which are at risk to hurricanes, has resulted in very large increases in the amount of property damage sustained in the last decade in the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean regions. This book is of interest to climatologists and meteorologists and as source of information for policymakers and emergency management planners.
