Flood and The Related Diseases

Abstract

Floods are a terrible natural disaster and difficult to deal  with, causing problems with houses and damaged property. as follows The problem of rotten waterlogging in various areas, the problem of fresh sea water causes fish to run aground and die. The garbage problem causes a lot of garbage to be thrown away after the water recedes. The problem of a large number of people losing their jobs due to flooding in some factories makes it impossible to work. The economic problem is poor because some products cannot be produced, causing a loss of trade balance, and one of the major problems that will arise is health problems because water always carries dirt and germs. There are many types of illnesses that may accompany flooding that should be watched out for, such as foot bites. Dengue fever, leptospirosis, gastrointestinal diseases. Respiratory diseases

2024  is a turning point in the world. When the hot temperature broke a new record, it was the first year that the global temperature rose by more than 1.5 degrees Celsius. Compared to the pre-industrial era. During the 1850s–1900s (1850–1900), when humans began to use fossil fuels on an industrial scale, and from 1940–2024, the climate is warming in all continents and ocean basins  .   The most above-average temperatures are in northern Canada, as well as the central and western United States. Northern Tibet, Japan and Australia Meanwhile, the temperature is below average. It is found in Greenland and Iceland.

Many scientists believe that such a temperature change (more than 1.5 degrees Celsius) will cause a significant and irreversible change in the condition of the Earth, namely the collapse of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Erosion of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet Tropical coral reefs began to die and the permafrost melted. Scientists also expect severe effects to occur again. If the average temperature of the world rises by 2.0 °C from the pre-industrial average temperature,

ENSO phenomenon in the  first 6 months  of 2024 (January-June) Thailand is facing hot weather, rising temperatures, and rainfall as a result of the El Niño phenomenon, which has caused a lot of damage to agricultural products, especially economic crops such as rice, cassava, and sugarcane  . El Niño is weakening into a neutral state, but it is strong enough to change to La Niña, causing temperatures to drop across the country, causing heavier than usual rainfall, and rainfall of 15.0-16.0% more than normal. Thailand faces an increasing risk of flash floods, especially flood-prone areas (Flood beds), causing floods. The northern and southern regions of Thailand are facing the worst flooding situation in years, causing no damage to homes.

Thailand is facing the risk of the influence of storms and monsoons, which, although not directly entering Thailand, may move into neighboring countries and later disintegrate or change direction, but can still influence rainfall in Thailand. Warm currents and monsoon winds from the Pacific Ocean have increased rainfall, as can be seen from the  Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation Index. The Western Pacific Monsoon with negative values and a downward direction, indicating more rainfall. Meanwhile, the western part of Thailand will face the influence of the storm. Warm currents and monsoon winds from the Indian Ocean will increase rainfall. Indications from the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) Index and the The Indian Monsoon Index is negative and bearish as well.

However, Areas in the North Central Region The Northeast and parts of the South are classified as high-risk areas. Especially the Lower North, which is a waterway through it, and the Central Region, which is a catchment area and a repetitive flood area. If a flood occurs, it will cause additional damage to the agricultural sector after the damage caused by the drought at the beginning of the year. The damage will cover agricultural land. building house Consumer goods, as well as transportation routes and various utilities.
