Tasikmalaya
Indonesia
Tasikmalaya is projected to experience multiple climate hazards that pose significant risks to its communities. The city will face frequent heatwaves, which are expected to challenge health and agricultural systems. Heavy rainfall events are also anticipated, leading to heightened flooding risks and infrastructure disruptions. This increased rainfall is likely to result in soil erosion and threaten water quality. Additionally, Tasikmalaya will see an elevated risk of malaria due to climate shifts that may expand the habitat for disease-carrying mosquitoes. Collectively, these challenges indicate that the city must prepare for a future characterized by severe weather patterns and emerging health threats as climate change progresses.
Hazard Outlook
How will Tasikmalaya's projected climate hazards compare to other cities under a 3.0°C future warming scenario?
Longest Heatwave
Tasikmalaya may experience heatwaves lasting up to 11 days, among the highest of all other cities.
Maximum Rainfall
Tasikmalaya's projected maximum rainfall of 14 mm is higher than most cities globally.
Maximum Temperature
Tasikmalaya's projected maximum temperature of 7.6°C is lower than most cities globally under a 3.0°C warming scenario.
Heavy Rainfall Days
With 8 days of heavy rainfall expected, Tasikmalaya ranks lower than most cities for extreme precipitation events.
Elevation
At 401 m elevation, Tasikmalaya faces lower risk from coastal flooding and sea level rise.
Exposure Summary
Adaptation Priorities
Tasikmalaya faces high exposure to heatwave and elevated exposure to max rain. These areas may warrant priority attention in adaptation planning.
