Mataram
Indonesia
Mataram is projected to face considerable climate hazards in the coming years. Frequent heatwaves will escalate the risk of heat-related illnesses, while prolonged drought conditions threaten water resources and agricultural output. Additionally, the city will experience a heightened risk of arbovirus transmission, contributing to potential public health crises. Furthermore, the elevated malaria risk indicates a growing vulnerability to vector-borne diseases. Overall, these interlinked climate challenges necessitate a robust understanding and proactive measures to protect the city's residents and their health, as Mataram navigates a future increasingly shaped by climate change.
