Uses specific indices like Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) for earthquakes and the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) for droughts.
It moves away from "single-hazard" approaches. By assessing a country's risk against all 11 hazards at once, policymakers can view true compound risk.
Instead of focusing purely on physical climate data, it actively calculates the expected annual mortality, the number of affected populations, and projected annual economic losses. 📊 Methodological Framework
It maps environments, hazards, and vulnerabilities for earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, floods, storm surges, sand-dust storms, tropical cyclones, heatwaves, cold waves, droughts, and wildfires.
