Hazard Summary

Tropical Cyclone

With landfall on the destination Tropical Cyclones are strong precipitation events with sustained wind speeds beyond 118 km/h - monthly cyclone statistics have been derived from historic events since 1950 provided by the IBTrACS database (NOAA)

Tsunami

Average for the whole destination Tsunami is considered relevant when it reaches at least 0.5m. Estimated based on our proprietary global tsunami hazard and risk modelling.

Sea Level Rise

Sea level rise is considered as the increase of sea level with respect to the local normal water levels. Data was made available by www.climateeconometrics.org/sealevel_rcp/

Climate

This panel provides various climate and weather related parameters. Contemporary data (1995) was calculated using the GLDAS (NOAA) dataset. Projects for 2060 are based on the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 models as provided by IPCC.
