Short summary

We developed a systematic hazard interaction classification based on the geophysical environment that natural hazards arise from. This classification ensures all possible hazard interactions among different hazards are considered in multi-hazard risk assessment. Using the developed classification, the probability and magnitude of multiple natural hazards occurring simultaneously can then be modelled in order to provide a more comprehensive multi-hazard risk assessment.
