Por lo tanto, el incremento de la intensidad de las precipitaciones proyectado por los modelos climáticos para el futuro cercano requiere especial atención. En este contexto, es de gran importancia para el partido de Rauch identificar de qué forma puede lograrse un manejo más eficiente de los recursos hídricos y hacer un aprovechamiento de los mismos en épocas de sequía. En el área urbana, las inundaciones podrían impactar sobre la infraestructura urbana: edificios residenciales, municipales, tendido eléctrico, servicio de recolección de residuos, cloacas; pudiendo incrementar la vulnerabilidad de la población.

However, the production capacity of the water supply remains the same. Besides, the expansion or development of raw water reservoirs has been more difficult due to higher land value. This has caused the city at risk of water deprivation.

It is expected that the five coastal barangays are likely to experience a permanent inundation of low-lying coastal areas by 2036 to 2065 and may affect a total of 30,321 population by 2030. Also, due to coastal flooding it is expected to have a higher demand for safe water supply. This will also result to the decrease in agricultural-fisheries production which will increase the migration rate of the people due to lack of livelihood in the area. Moreover, coastal flooding will increase the severity of health problems such as communicable diseases, respiratory ailments, exhaustion and cramps are expected to escalate specifically for the dependent population and people who are more exposed outside.

This river system serves as primary channels of runoff water from upland areas and from the city. Commonly, outfall areas within the city are drained into the Davao gulf, which also serves as the major outfall area of surrounding municipalities and cities. The presence of these two (2) rivers compounds the effects of rainfall making barangays Bincungan, Busaon, Canocotan, Liboganon, Mankilam, San Miguel and Pagsabangan very highly susceptible to flooding affecting a total of 22,176 exposed population. Roads and bridges along flood plain areas in Tagum City were categorized as high risk and are exposed to high susceptible to flooding with an estimated flood height of greater than one meter. Disruption of access system in the identified flood plain areas which last for 2 days affecting settlements and production. Moreover, rice production and cavendish banana production areas in Pagsabangan and cavendish banana production areas in Cuambogan and Mankilam are highly at risk to flooding while coconut production areas in some parts of these barangays are also exposed to flooding. On the other hand, aquaculture production in coastal barangays is also highly affected by flooding. In 2017, flooding affected 12,781 hectares of production area (rice, coconut and garungan) amounting to Php 5,194,552.00 worth of production output. Consequently, 10,278 farming households’ livelihood and settlement are at risk. Residential areas are mostly exposed to flooding covering almost 700 ha from Brgys. Magugpo East, Apokon, Madaum, Mankilam, and Magdum with an exposed amount of Php 2.3 million (CDRA, 2017). It is expected that the future frequency and intensity of the hazard will be increased. This will result to the decrease in agricultural-fisheries production, increase the migration rate of the people due to lack of livelihood in the area and higher demand for safe water supply. Moreover, flash/surface flooding will increase the severity of health problems such as communicable diseases, respiratory ailments, exhaustion and cramps are expected to escalate specifically for the dependent population.

Out of 23 barangays 6 are considered hilly area having an elevation of 110 meters above sea level with rolling to steep terrain having more than 15% slope, namely Barangays Pandapan, San Agustin, New Balamban, Magdum, Nueva Fuerza and portions of La Filipina. Landslide occurrences in this barangays are caused by heavy rains which affects a total of 7,876 exposed population from moderate to high landslide based on the Climate Change Vulnerability and Risk Assessment (CCVRA). Rain-induced landslides have affected a considerable section of the city’s population, as well as urban areas, production and facilities. Institutional facilities of New Balamban and Pandapan, and the elementary school of Nueva Fuerza are moderately susceptible to landslide. It is expected to worsen in the future while other hazards identified will intensify based on the data projected by PAGASA by 2036-2065. With the rapid urban infrastructure development in the city, economic activities and settlement areas are moving towards rural and upland areas that are very susceptible to landslide during heavy rains. These 6 barangays with an estimated population of 39,651 by 2030, increased number of business establishments and agriculture production areas that will be at risk by 2036-2065.

Magugpo Poblacion is highly vulnerable to Extreme Hot Days due to its built-up areas, open space, canopy presence/heights and land surface temperature. One of the most noticeable land use change over the years is the modification of Brgy. Magugpo Poblacion into a commercial and residential area as the city’s Central Business District. In order to accommodate the developments, houses and buildings were concentrated in this area. Aside from these structures, tricycles and motorbikes amassed in the city center due to the volume of passengers. The change of its land use cover, presence of the built – up area and its lacking of available green open space affect the surface temperature and wind movement causing a warmer atmosphere of 1 - 3°C compared to the rural areas.Aside from its elevated temperature, the urban surface which is relatively made of concrete and asphalt, contributes to the Extreme Hot Days effect in the city. Compared to other well-known parks in the city, open space such as Freedom Park and Rotary Park are no longer shaded with trees and grass pavements. During extreme hot days, health conditions, air, and water quality are affected not just within the Brgy. Magugpo Poblacion, but its neighboring barangays affecting the socio-economic perception and activities of its residents. On the other hand, some fishponds in the coastal barangays are experiencing abnormalities in fish sizes. The warmer temperature and air quality in the area are expected to intensify. Thus, cases of heat stroke, exhaustion, and respiratory ailments, especially to the old and young population will be escalated. Also, there will be a higher demand of electricity for cooling requirements with an average increase of 23% (GHG Inventory, 2018), hence higher greenhouse gas emissions. Increase in temperature in the coastal area may also result to heat stress causing coral bleaching restricting coral growth. Coral reefs are critical habitat for marine species. Warmer sea surface temperature disrupts the ecosystem resulting to heat stress coral bleaching and critical habitat for marine lives. It can also enhance the water acidity affecting the health of the marine species and increase in mortality. Fish migration is also possible once its natural habitat is disturbed and damaged heading towards cooler temperature.

Debido a ello, las laderas presentan fuertes pendientes y rasgos dominantes de erosión glacial (flancos truncados, circos, horns) y morrenas laterales y terminales, como resultado de la acción sedimentaria de los hielos. En las porciones superiores de las laderas es común encontrar importantes asomos rocosos, con formaciones en distintos grados de meteorización, los cuales son propensos a sufrir fragmentación y volcamiento hacia las laderas inferiores como consecuencia de las condiciones climáticas (lluvias y heladas, calentamiento y enfriamiento). A su vez, San Martin de los Andes se encuentra en un área con moderado riesgo sísmico. Los movimientos sísmicos también pueden ser causa de la caída de rocas y remociones en masa localizadas de las laderas. Sin embargo, no se han registrado eventos catastróficos (fuertes terremotos o importantes lluvias de cenizas) a lo largo de la historia de la ciudad.Por otro lado, San Martin de los Andes se encuentra en un área con una importante red de drenaje, que atraviesa toda el área urbana y sub-urbana, con diversos mallines que actúan como reguladores hídricos de la cuenca.Tal como se mencionó previamente, todo el ejido urbano se desarrolla en geoformas que favorecen los procesos geomorfológicos principalmente gravitacionales a causa de la dominancia de fuertes pendientes. Esta amenaza se presenta sobre aproximadamente 50% del ejido urbano. Además, los anegamientos y/o inundaciones en las proximidades de los arroyos y en los suelos relacionados con los mallines impactan sobre, aproximadamente el 12% del ejido urbano. A partir de estas observaciones, se elaboró un mapa del grado de peligrosidad al que se encuentra expuesta la población (Figura 30). Se observa que, el 53% del ejido urbano presenta una peligrosidad baja y media, y un 48% presenta peligrosidad alta y muy alta. Esto implica importantes complejidades de manejo y de planeamiento físico y urbanístico.

Este incremento de la temperatura podría generar un mayor consumo de energía, tanto en el sector residencial como público y comercial e industrial y, si no se 47 cuenta con la infraestructura necesaria para abastecer la demanda, podría verse interrumpido. Dado que la población de adultos y adultos mayores es en general la más afectada por las olas de calor, el incremento de la duración de las mismas requiere especial atención en el contexto del cambio climático Numerosos estudios epidemiológicos reportan que las enfermedades transmisibles (de tipo vectorial, gastrointestinal, respiratorio) son sensibles a los cambios en las variables climáticas como la temperatura y la humedad. Por lo tanto, se espera que los cambios climáticos proyectados para Soldini en el futuro cercano incrementen la incidencia de estas afecciones.

Considerando que se proyecta un incremento de la torrencialidad de las lluvias para el futuro cercano como consecuencia del cambio climático, esta amenaza puede verse agravada en el cortomediano plazo. Por otro lado, las proyecciones también indican un incremento de alrededor de 25 ml en la precipitación diaria máxima. Es decir, se espera que los eventos de precipitación sean más intensos. Los sectores de la ciudad con mayor amenaza de anegamiento comprenden principalmente áreas con calles no pavimentadas y sin servicio de cloacas. Además, las calles asfaltadas se encuentran altamente deterioradas y las precipitaciones copiosas han generado filtraciones en las bases que, sumado a la exposición diaria al tránsito pesado, agravan su situación y la transitabilidad. Esta amenaza, además de afectar la infraestructura de la ciudad (redes viales, residencias, etc.), puede tener impactos negativos en la recolección de residuos, el sistema deficiente de residuos cloacales y el suministro de agua potable. La variabilidad de las lluvias y las lluvias extremas pueden agravar los procesos de erosión y degradación del suelo. La intensidad de precipitación, que según las proyecciones climáticas se incrementará en el futuro cercano, es el factor más importante de los que determinan la erosión del suelo por efecto de la lluvia. Un aumento de la intensidad de la lluvia produciría un incremento en el tamaño, masa y velocidad de la gota, aumentando su velocidad y contribuyendo al proceso de erosión con su consiguiente impacto sobre la materia orgánica y la emisión de carbono. Por otro lado, en la etapa de sedimentación, por disminución de la energía del escurrimiento (ya sea por disminución de la pendiente o por obstáculos que reducen la velocidad) se produce el depósito de las partículas del suelo. Este depósito puede destruir cultivos y dañar infraestructuras como caminos, vías férreas, etc.

El total de viviendas habitadas en el Municipio de Tlaquepaque son de146, 278 de las cuales: 419 no disponen de energía eléctrica 1252 obtienen agua de pozo, rio, lago, arroyo u otra. 292 tienen techo de material de desecho lámina de cartón 278 cuentan con paredes de material de desecho o lámina de cartón 1,866 no disponen de televisor, radio u otro medio de comunicación para informarse en caso de una catástrofe.33 Estas viviendas son más susceptibles a sufrir daños en caso de una catástrofe y a no poder sobrellevar la situación a causa de sus carencias. El Atlas de Riesgo del Municipio se compone de Riesgos a Inundaciones por fuertes lluvias y también posibilidad de deslaves.
