Multi-hazard dependencies can increase or decrease risk
journal contribution
posted on 2020-06-17, 13:54 authored by John HillierJohn Hillier, Tom Matthews, Robert WilbyRobert Wilby, Conor MurphyIn risk analysis, it is recognised that hazards can often combine to worsen their joint impact, but impact data for a rail network show that hazards can also tend to be mutually exclusive at seasonal timescales. Ignoring this overestimates worst-case risk, so we therefore champion a broader view of risk from compound hazards.
