Notes

The level of climate hazard is assessed based on the indicator “Physical exposure to flood” developed by the INFORM Risk Index using the historical data of riverine floods from the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR). The minimum value is given 0 on the scale while the maximum value is given 10. A detailed methodology of the indicator is described on the INFORM Risk Index page. In this report, the risk is defined as Low: 0 - 2.99, Medium: 3 - 6.99 and High: 7 - 10.
