pac Ship recycling: reducing human and environmental impacts – June 2016 By ec.europa.eu Published On :: Mon, 27 Jun 2016 09:12:34 GMT The ship-recycling industry — which dismantles old and decommissioned ships, enabling the re-use of valuable materials — is a major supplier of steel and an important part of the economy in many countries, such as Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Turkey. However, mounting evidence of negative impacts undermines the industry’s contribution to sustainable development. This Thematic Issue presents a selection of recent research on the environmental and human impacts of shipbreaking. Full Article
pac Swiss environmental impact exceeds its share of planetary boundaries By ec.europa.eu Published On :: Thur, 23 May 2019 11:23:19 GMT In order to manage its environmental footprint, Switzerland should act on a number of key issues identified by the ‘planetary boundaries’ framework, says a Swiss study, with priority given to the areas of climate change, ocean acidification, biodiversity loss and nitrogen loss. This quantitative framework identifies nine bio-physical limits of the Earth system that, if exceeded, may lead to societal and ecological changes unfavourable to human development and stability. These are upper thresholds rather than targets. The researchers suggest that the concept and their methodology could be used together to think differently about environmental issues, and change the way related assessments and policies are implemented at both global and national levels.

pac FLOODING CONTINUES TO IMPACT TRAVEL THROUGHOUT THE REGION TONIGHT - Drivers should plan to check Virginia 511 before their Friday morning commute By www.virginiadot.org Published On :: Thu, 11 Oct 2018 24:00:00 GMT-8 SALEM – Throughout the afternoon and evening, crews with the Virginia Department of Transportation have been responding to the immediate concerns of downed trees, mudslides and high water throughout southwestern Virginia. Crews will continue to monitor roadways overnight. As of 10 p.m., roads in all 12 counties of the district have been affected by the heavy rainfall resulting in numerous closures of primary and secondary roads today. Some of the primary roads affected include portions of Interstate 81, Route 220 through Roanoke and Franklin County, Route 419 in Roanoke, Route 58 in Patrick County and Route 57 in Henry County. As streams and rivers swell and water recedes, conditions will continue to change, so motorists should drive with caution and check the latest road conditions before travelling tomorrow morning. The most up-to-date information about flooded roads is available at www.511Virginia.org . To access the list of flooded roads, look for the text views section of the site and search under road conditions. VDOT encourages motorists to stay off the roads tonight, if possible, and not to drive through ponding water or around barricades. As water recedes, VDOT will inspect structures and roadways before they can reopen or be repaired. Some roads may require lengthy closures depending on the extent of damage and how soon repairs can be completed. To report downed trees or debris on state maintained roads, citizens can contact VDOT’s customer service center at 1-800-FOR-ROAD. For emergencies, dial 911. Follow us on Twitter at @VaDOTSalem and @511southwestva for the latest updates on road conditions. Full Article
pac TRAFFIC ALERT: ROUTE 220 LANE CLOSURES WILL HEAVILY IMPACT TRAFFIC TONIGHT THROUGH NEXT WEEK IN FRANKLIN AND ROANOKE COUNTIES - Drivers should plan ahead and expect delays By www.virginiadot.org Published On :: Fri, 12 Oct 2018 24:00:00 GMT-8 SALEM – The recent flooding and heavy rainfall has resulted in several slope and shoulder failures along Route 220 in Roanoke and Franklin Counties. During the next week, crews will be working to repair the damage and commuters and travelers will be impacted. Route 220 Southbound between Buck Mountain Road and Yellow Mountain Road in Roanoke County The right lane of southbound Route 220 is closed due to a slope failure on the right shoulder of the road between Buck Mountain and Yellow Mountain Road in Roanoke County. High water from the heavy rains caused a rock slide that impacted the shoulder of the roadway. The weight caused the shoulder to collapse resulting in the road being pushed out and giving way. The right lane closure will remain in place through Monday evening, weather permitting. Crews are developing a plan to repair the pipe and plan to begin work over the weekend. Route 220 Southbound at Franklin County Line The left lane of southbound Route 220 has been closed due to a slope failure in the median just south of the Franklin County line. VDOT crews have been working to determine how a pipe under the road has failed and how to proceed with repairs. At this time, the ground continues to settle and move, therefore, the lane will remain closed through the weekend and into Monday . The lane closure is located approximately one mile prior to the Roanoke County and Franklin County line and just north of the intersection with Route 613 (Naff Road). Route 220 Shoulder Repairs There will be alternating right and left lane closures on southbound and northbound Route 220 next week, weather permitting, to repair shoulders that have been damaged by the heavy rainfall. Drivers using Route 220 southbound and northbound should plan ahead for significant delays during this time until repairs can be made and lane closures are removed. Drivers should plan ahead accordingly. For updates on this lane closure, visit www.511Virginia.org . Full Article
pac FLOODING AND DOWNED TREES IMPACTING TRAVEL THROUGHOUT SOUTHWESTERN VIRGINIA TODAY By www.virginiadot.org Published On :: Fri, 12 Oct 2018 24:00:00 GMT-8 SALEM – The gusty winds and heavy rains from the remnants of Hurricane Michael yesterday created flooded roads, downed trees and power lines in western Virginia. As of 11 a.m., approximately 140 roads are closed or affected in the 12 counties of VDOT’s Salem District. Crews are currently clearing debris and assessing roads throughout the region, coordinating with emergency and utility crews and making or scheduling repairs where possible. In some areas, water will need to recede before a road can be investigated or repaired. Their focus today will be to make roads safe and passable for traffic. If extensive repairs are needed, they will be coordinated and scheduled at a later date. Drivers are encouraged to continue to monitor road conditions in your area prior to traveling. The most up-to-date information about flooded roads is available at www.511Virginia.org . For information on specific roads, citizens can access the Road Table under the text views section of the site. To report downed trees or debris on state maintained roads, citizens can contact VDOT’s customer service center at 1-800-FOR-ROAD. Drivers who are traveling today are reminded of the following: Turn Around, Don’t Drown! Never drive through water flowing across a road. It takes only six to 12 inches of water to float a small vehicle. Never drive around barricades. Remember, the road has been closed for your safety. Avoid flood-prone areas, especially along creeks and other low-lying areas. Be alert for tree limbs and other debris in the roadway. Even small branches and other debris can damage a car or cause the driver to lose control. If you come across a downed power line, do not try to move it. Contact your local authorities.

The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 1500 UTC. ...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH... A surface trough extends from Panama near 08N78W to 07N122W. The ITCZ extends from there to 06N140W. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is noted north of 05N east of 90W, from 03N to 11N between 94W and 114W, and from 05N to 07W west of 138W. OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO... A weak ridge of high pressure extends from 30N128W through the Revillagigedo Islands to 14N96W. As a result, winds this morning off of Mexico and in the Gulf of California were only moderate breeze or weaker. High pressure building over the Gulf of Mexico will promote strong N gap winds across the Tehuantepec region late tonight and continue through Mon night. Peak seas should reach 10-12 ft due to N wind waves and SW swell. Elsewhere tranquil conditions are expected across the area through at least Wed night. Long period SW swell will impact the waters through Monday. An altimeter pass showed peak seas of 8 to 9 ft south of Mexico late last night. Haze and areas of smoke from agricultural fires in Mexico may reduce visibilities near the coast from the Tehuantepec region to near Cabo Corrientes. OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA, AND WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR... A flat pressure gradient over the waters is forcing winds of only fresh breeze or weaker. Winds will remain tranquil during the next several days. Large, long period SW swell will continue to impact the offshore waters of Central America, Ecuador and Colombia through the weekend before gradually fading. Peak seas observed by an altimeter pass last night were around 10 ft between the Galapagos and Ecuador. Haze and areas of smoke may reduce visibilities near the coasts of Costa Rica, El Salvador and Guatemala during the next few days. REMAINDER OF THE AREA... A weak ridge of high pressure extends from 30N128W through the Revillagigedo Islands to 14N96W. The relatively flat pressure gradient from the ridge to the ITCZ is causing NE trades of generally moderate breeze or weaker this morning. Peak seas are 8 to 10 ft east of 120W and south of 15N, primarily due to long- period SW swell. A weak cold front will reach our NW corner of 30N140W Sun morning and progress to 30N132W to 24N140W Mon morning, before dissipating by Tue morning. SW winds ahead and NW winds behind the front should remain fresh breeze or weaker. A NW swell of 8 to 10 ft will impact the waters north of 25N west of 130W Sun night through Tue morning. Elsewhere winds should remain tranquil through at least Wed night. Large, long period SW swell will continue to impact the high seas waters south of 15N and east of 125W through the weekend before gradually fading. Peak seas observed by an altimeter pass last night were around 10 ft well west of the Galapagos. $$ Landsea Full Article
pac Eastern Pacific Post-Tropical Cyclone Octave Discussion Number 9 By www.nhc.noaa.gov Published On :: Sat, 19 Oct 2019 20:39:43 +0000 000 WTPZ43 KNHC 192039 TCDEP3 Post-Tropical Cyclone Octave Discussion Number 9 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP182019 200 PM PDT Sat Oct 19 2019 Deep convection has not returned, now being absent for at least 12 hours. The environment around Octave is dry and stable, and it is unlikely that significant convection will come back any time soon. Octave has therefore become a remnant low, and its maximum winds are estimated to be 30 kt based on recent scatterometer data. The remnant low is expected to linger for at least the next 5 days with its intensity holding steady or decreasing due to moderate southeasterly shear and mid-level relative humidities of 30-40 percent. The initial motion remains very slowly east-northeastward, or 070/2 kt. The remnant low is trapped in a weak steering regime, and it is expected to meander for the next 5 days, only moving a net distance of 50-100 n mi during that period. A slight westward adjustment was made to this last NHC official forecast to account for the latest multi-model consensus aids and the ECMWF, which lies along the western edge of the guidance envelope.

Although the long-term average is one tropical storm forms in the basin every second or third year, this is the second straight November with at least one named storm forming. In fact, named storms have formed in November in five of the past six years. Overall, the 2019 eastern Pacific hurricane season featured near average activity. There were seventeen named storms, of which seven became hurricanes and four became major hurricanes - category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. This compares to the long-term averages of fifteen named storms, eight hurricanes, and four major hurricanes. There were also two tropical depressions that did not reach tropical storm strength. In terms of Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE), which measures the strength and duration of tropical storms and hurricanes, activity in the basin in 2019 was a little below the long-term mean.

Satellite images indicate that the circulation is elongated and that the thunderstorm activity is well removed from the area of minimum pressure due to very strong wind shear. In addition, observations from the Mexican Navy automatic station at Isla Socorro which is located near Raymond indicate that winds are between 15 and 20 kt. The low is moving northward around 14 kt, but this motion is uncertain since the circulation is elongated and poorly defined. Raymond's remnants are expected to move northward and then north-northwestward and eventually become absorbed by a large developing trough west of the Baja California peninsula in about 24 to 36 hours. The combination of the remnants of Raymond and the developing trough west of the peninsula will bring heavy rains into southern portions of the Baja California peninsula over the next day or two.

pac Eastern Pacific Remnants Of Priscilla Discussion Number 4 By www.nhc.noaa.gov Published On :: Mon, 21 Oct 2019 02:35:00 +0000 807 WTPZ44 KNHC 210234 TCDEP4 Remnants Of Priscilla Discussion Number 4 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP192019 1000 PM CDT Sun Oct 20 2019 The rugged terrain of Mexico has taken a toll on Priscilla. Surface observations indicate that the system no longer has a closed surface circulation, and therefore this is the last advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on this system. Even though the surface circulation has dissipated, there is still a fair amount of deep convection associated with the remnant trough over portions of southwestern and west-central Mexico. Since the surface trough is expected to linger for another couple of days over southwestern Mexico, there remains a significant threat of heavy rains and flash flooding over that region.
