Quality The first step in creating a multihazard surface is to isolate those areas that are the most at-risk for mortality (deciles 8-10) for each of the hazards considered in the study (cyclones, droughts, earthquakes, floods, landslides, and volcanoes). Three categorical hazard surfaces representing the highest mortality risks are created from combinations of the single hazard surfaces. The hazard ... View entire text
