### Q1E. Elaborate the four points of difference in Training manual for Tsunami and Cyclone Disaster Management. [4 marks]

#### Answer

| Training item | Tsunami | Cyclone |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Trigger and lead time | Recognise official alerts and natural signs; nearby sources can give very little time. | Follow progressively updated cyclone forecasts and warnings, often with longer preparation time. |
| Movement | Rehearse rapid movement to designated high ground/inland safe areas. | Rehearse early evacuation to cyclone-safe shelters before routes become unsafe. |
| Shelter and hazards | Avoid mapped inundation areas and expect several waves. | Protect against wind, flying debris, storm surge and rain flooding. |
| Return | Wait for the tsunami all-clear; the first wave may not be largest. | Wait for official clearance and do not mistake the eye’s calm for safety. |

Both manuals need accessible routes, accountability, essential supplies, family contacts and arrangements for people needing assistance. Local hazard maps determine actual safe destinations.

#### Illustrative application · A school evacuation drill

A planned drill tests whether alarms are understood, routes are usable, people needing assistance receive it and everyone reaches the assembly point. The debrief identifies bottlenecks and changes the plan. Merely walking outside without review is an incomplete exercise.
