| Zusammenfassung |
| This article considers the socio-geographical approach carried out as part of
the MedUp program. It presents a study of the ways that the French "actors"
manage forecast uncertainties during a flash flood warning process. In order
to better understand the role of forecasts' uncertainties in decision making,
we focused on the actions people took and how what they say explains their
actions. The practices of actors involved in warnings for the Vidourle
watershed (Gard, France), in particular, are analyzed using a practice-based
approach. A set of categories of the "actors" was developed based on their
descriptions of the problems they faced during the flash flood warning,
independent of their socio-professional status and position in the warning
chain. Five actor profiles result from this: Translators, Managers,
Committed, Navigators and Vulnerable. For each profile, specific action
contexts are defined, determining how each deals with uncertainty. |
