Abstract
|
zx The 2004 tsunami was the worst natural disaster in the history of Indonesia. More
than 120,000 people died or are still missing; more than 500,000 people lost their
homes; and more than 250,000 houses were destroyed or damaged; the total damage
bill exceeds US$4.45 billion (approximately 97% of Aceh’s GDP);
zx Seawalls, flood control walls, irrigation canals and jetties have been severely affected
with damage estimates in Aceh of US$72.1 million;
zx The agriculture, aquaculture, fisheries and tourism sectors were seriously damaged,
threatening food supplies and livelihoods. Fishing was the most important activity
in the affected areas and 42,000 - 58,000 fishers and their families were affected, with
the total damage estimated at US$52.0 million;
zx Coral reef damage was assessed as 30% damage to 97,250 ha of reefs; damage varied
greatly between sites, with some reefs structurally damaged by the earthquake while
nearby reefs were minimally affected; most reefs showed moderate tsunami-related
impacts and some reefs were entirely destroyed; and
zx The most serious ongoing threats to the reefs are from debris washed into the ocean,
and coastal pressures of over-fishing, pollution, and unsustainable development.
Most reefs will eventually recover if not stressed further.
