Multi-Hazard Risk Assessment through Hydrological Modeling in North Sikkim District, Sikkim

Project 5: Development of an Impact-based Integrated Dynamic Multi-hazard Risk Assessment Framework that is inclusive of:

  • Heterogeneous Datasets: To collate and store multi-temporal scale heterogeneous data from multiple sources.
  • Risk Identification: To understand the various types of hazard scenarios present at a regional scale and the spatio-temporal scales of occurrence for these scenarios. To understand the relationship between primary, secondary, and tertiary hazards (simultaneous, cascading, increased probability, triggering, etc).
  • Risk Assessment: To identify methods to quantify cumulative impacts of hazard sequences based on the magnitude of the hazard, duration of occurrence, and other Spatio-temporal parameters discussed in this publication.
  • Risk Mitigation and Adaptation: To enhance community resilience by enhancing risk mitigation and adaptation strategies tailored to each spatiotemporal scale and location.
  • Risk Information Dissemination: To identify localized models to disseminate impact-based early warnings for multi-hazard sequences through multi-stakeholder engagement
