Hazards

Extreme and high-impact weather events, interacting with exposed and vulnerable human and natural systems, can lead to disasters. Experts agree that these phenomena (flash-floods, storm surges, heatwaves, forest fires, droughts, convective storms or snowfall) have increased in frequency or magnitude, resulting in more devastating potential impacts for people and goods.
