VulneraCity–drivers and dynamics of urban vulnerability based on a global systematic literature review
Globally, urban disaster risk is being affected by changing patterns of natural hazards due to climate change and rapid urbanization. While we have a relatively good understanding of the hazard and exposure in cities, we know little about their vulnerability. In this study, we investigate the drivers and dynamics of urban vulnerability for six different natural hazards by conducting a systematic literature review on the peer-reviewed scientific l…
Infrastructure failure cascades quintuple risk of storm and flood-induced service disruptions across the globe
Society is dependent on critical infrastructure that provides basic services such as healthcare, mobility, communications, and power. Severe weather can damage these vital infrastructure assets, disrupting services. Such disruptions can further escalate due to system interdependencies. Although research increasingly evaluates physical risks to infrastructure assets, knowledge on service disruption risks from natural hazard-induced failure cascade…

Prioritising resilience policies to reduce welfare losses from natural disasters
Quantified flood risk assessments focus on asset losses, neglecting longer-term impacts to household welfare via income and consumption losses. The extent of welfare losses depends upon resilience – the ability to anticipate, resist, cope, recover and learn from a shock. Here, we use a novel welfare loss modelling framework and perform a high-resolution spatial analysis in coastal Bangladesh to quantify welfare losses from a tropical cyclone unde…
Hard or soft flood adaptation? Advantages of a hybrid strategy for Shanghai
Flood risk is expected to increase in coastal cities, particularly in Asian megacities such as Shanghai. This paper presents an integrated modeling framework to simulate changes in the flood risk in Shanghai and provide a cost-benefit analysis of multiple adaptation strategies used to reduce risk. The results show that the potential flood risk will increase dramatically as a result of sea level rise, land subsidence, and socioeconomic development…
A global multi-hazard risk analysis of road and railway infrastructure assets
Transport infrastructure is exposed to natural hazards all around the world. Here we present the first global estimates of multi-hazard exposure and risk to road and rail infrastructure. Results reveal that ~27% of all global road and railway assets are exposed to at least one hazard and ~7.5% of all assets are exposed to a 1/100 year flood event. Global Expected Annual Damages (EAD) due to direct damage to road and railway assets range from 3.1 …
The macroeconomic impacts of future river flooding in Europe
The economic impacts of disasters can reach far beyond the affected regions through interconnected transboundary trade flows. As quantification of these indirect impacts is complex, most disaster risk models focus on the direct impacts on assets and people in the impacted region. This study explicitly includes the indirect effects via regional economic interdependencies to model economic disaster losses on a continental scale, exemplified by rive…
