Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'histoire du secours en montagne est jalonnée d'invraisemblables récits d'avalanches, à l'issue parfois heureuse, parfois tragique. Voici l'histoire, captivante, et l'analyse, édifiante, d'une dizaine de secours en avalanche.Tout au long de sa carrière de médecin urgentiste, de guide de haute montagne et de secouriste, Pierre Muller a été confronté, directement ou indirectement, à des avalanches. Il a souhaité, au travers de ce récit très accessible, emmener le lecteur dans les coulisses du secours, mais aussi faire part de son vécu et des leçons qu'il pouvait en tirer. Car, qu'elles se terminent bien ou de façon dramatique, les avalanches sont toujours riches d'enseignements. De l'avalanche du mont Maudit qui surprend tout le monde en plein été à celle des Orres qui emporte des lycéens en raquette sur un terrain a priori sûr (la forêt), en passant par celle de Val-d'Isère qui balaye un club UCPA ou l'incroyable histoire des miraculés de la Maurienne, la neige n'a pas livré tous ses secrets.

Download or read book Detecting Modelling and Responding to Effusive Eruptions written by A.J.L. Harris and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For effusive volcanoes in resource-poor regions, there is a pressing need for a crisis response-chain bridging the global scientific community to allow provision of standard products for timely humanitarian response. As a first step in attaining this need, this Special Publication provides a complete directory of current operational capabilities for monitoring effusive eruptions. This volume also reviews the state-of-the-art in terms of satellite-based volcano hot-spot tracking and lava-flow simulation. These capabilities are demonstrated using case studies taken from well-known effusive events that have occurred worldwide over the last two decades at volcanoes such as Piton de la Fournaise, Etna, Stromboli and Kilauea. We also provide case-type response models implemented at the same volcanoes, as well as the results of a community-wide drill used to test a fully-integrated response focused on an operational hazard-GIS. Finally, the objectives and recommendations of the ‘Risk Evaluation, Detection and Simulation during Effusive Eruption Disasters’ working group are laid out in a statement of community needs by its members.

Download or read book Multilingual Dictionary Of Disaster Medicine And International Relief written by S. William A. Gunn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades natural, technological and other disasters have been increasing in frequency and magnitude, and the involvement of international organizations and professionals from different disciplines has been growing in parallel. By definition major emergencies call for outside aid and often international assistance. The many agencies and individual helpers from different countries, different languages and different specialties converge on the stricken site with the sole object of helping the victims, who are themselves of a different background and language. Communication among these people and a certain understanding of the varying terminology of the many professions and activities therefore become paramount if the difficulties of the disaster situation are not to be compounded with difficulties of communication. A common ground for understanding between doctors, engineers, meteorologists, nurses, nutritionists, planners, government officials, transport personnel and the many other workers involved in disaster preparedness, relief and rehabilitation is therefore indispensable. It is to this end that this multilingual, multidisciplinary Dictionary serves as an invaluable tool for the disaster manager, whatever his background and wherever he may be called upon to work. A precursor in Disaster Medicine, Dr. William Gunn has conducted numerous emergency missions for the United Nations and other agencies, and this Dictionary has been tested in the field and in training courses over many years.
