| Abstract: | Tamil Nadu is historically one of the most vulnerable States to tropical cyclone. The total geographical area of Tamil Nadu is 13 Million hectares and it has a coastline of 1,076 km which is about 15% of the coastline of India. The State is multi-hazard prone, the major natural hazards being Cyclonic storms, Urban and Rural floods, and periodic Droughts. Some of the tropical cyclones that hit Tamil Nadu are Gaja (2018), Ockhi (2017), Vardha (2016), Nilam (2012), Thane (2011), Jal (2010) and Nisha (2008). This study revealed various damages to buildings and properties during the cyclone through a field study, which is supported by published secondary data. Further, the article explores the causes of damages and remedial measures to avoid those in future cyclones. The instances of cyclones are becoming more frequent as well as intense in the recent times which raises a pressing need for disaster preparedness. Information plays a crucial role in the context of disasters and the same is disseminated through media. People seek information from media to become aware as well as adopt precautionary measures to safeguard themselves and their property from cyclones to the extent possible. A question arises as to how frequently people use media in the context of disaster, the pattern of information seeking, what are the factors that determine the information seeking behaviour and whether they pave way for the adoption of disaster preparedness. The thesis proposes the disaster preparedness model that conceptualizes structural relationships among media use, information seeking behaviour and disaster preparedness. The proposed structural relationships are empirically investigated in the context of tropical cyclones in the coastal districts of the state of Tamil Nadu, India. |
