The recent study of Fluminance Federal University (UFF) has assessed environmental risks N Telangana If you look at the increase in sea level until 2100.
The opinion of the researchers Guanabara bay Has a greater socioeconomic vulnerability, but the departments that face The Atlantic Ocean Deal with more environmental fragility. This article was published in March, in the scientific magazine in Switzerland The shores.
Analysis was held from the vulnerable matrix that considered nine areas of the city. Four major factors were used to define risk levels: wave intensity, presence of protective ecosystems, population density and per capita income. The sea area stands for its natural vulnerability, the presence of sensitive ecosystems such as mangroves and resting. Already part of the Barreta and the Center, with dense and low income population, pointed out very fragile from the social and economic perspective.
The survey warns that the rising sea level will exacerbate coastal cutting, urban infrastructure damage, and more flood exposure to the dwelling population. Even in a more traditional scenario – with an increase of up to 0.5 meters 2100 – extreme events such as long tide and hangovers can increase water levels up to 1.80 meters, which directly affect more than 9,000 people Oceanic area. In addition, about 2 million square meters of vegetation areas may be compromised.
Inequality and relief proposals
This research recognizes large population and socioeconomic variations between areas. Bay Edge has the largest population density, with about 13,900 residents of Kimiwal Oceanic areaLike Itakotiara, they have only 537 of KM². With regard to income, neighboring areas such as Barreta and Central Areas record a per capita average of less than R $ 650, which is different from the average R $ 1,700.
In the steps suggested to combat these losses, the strengthening of coastal defense structures, the expansion of programs targeting urban expansion control and environmental management.
Ongoing prevention tasks
As part of preventive measures, the Nitry Infrastructure and Works Company (ION) recently completed the basic design of a large underground reservoir under the Kaiyo Martin’s Stadium in Ikara. “Pissinio”, which is capable of storing 80 million liters of water, occupies two -thirds of this field and needs to demolish the stands focused on the presidential backer street.
The system consists of a new drainage network that covers an area of six kilometers, passes through the streets of Loz Troo and President of the President, and Paulo Caesar, Mariz and Barrows Streets, Santa Rosa and Roberto Silvira Avenue.
