Answer

What can Mallorca do to reduce damage from rissagues?

The most useful steps are better monitoring, clear warnings, trained harbour staff and infrastructure that can handle sudden flooding better. Scientists, municipalities and harbour operators all have a role, because early detection alone is not enough if the response is unclear. Simple multilingual information can also help visitors understand what to do.
