The latest evidence suggests that multi-hazards and their interrelationships (e.g., triggering, compound, consecutive hazards) are becoming more frequent across Europe, underlying a need for resilience building by moving from single-hazard-focused to multi-hazard risk assessment management. Although significant advancements were made in our understanding of these events, mainstream practice is still focused on risks due single hazards flooding, earthquakes, droughts), with limited the...
Abstract Disaster Risk Management (DRM) is complex due to interacting climate risks from hazards and sectors. We develop a synthetic multi‐risk test case explore the effects of these interactions on decision‐making under deep uncertainty. The accounts for changes in hazard impacts occurrence frequency between floods droughts. Interactions shipping, housing agricultural sectors are considered as well. use this utility Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways Multi‐Risk (DAPP‐MR) framework. DAPP‐MR...
Climate change impacts are increasingly complex owing to compounding, interacting, and cascading risks across sectors. However, approaches support Disaster Risk Management (DRM) addressing the underlying (uncertain) risk driver interactions still lacking. We tailor approach of Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways (DAPP) DAPP-MR design DRM pathways for complex, dynamic multi-risk in multi-sector systems. review recent multi-hazard research identify relevant aspects management frameworks...
Abstract. Dynamic vulnerability, driven by changing social, economic, physical, and environmental characteristics, is critical to understanding flood risk. Despite its importance, existing risk assessment research often overlooks the mechanisms that drive dynamic vulnerability interactions between underlying characteristics. In this study, we systematically review methods used assess in context of floods compile their findings about drivers effects dynamics a dataset. We identify 28 relevant...
Risk drivers, are non-static, including long-term trends as well short-term changes. These can, for example, arise due to interactions from multiple hazards or side-effects of risk reduction measures that address one hazard but neglect others. While dynamics and exposure increasingly being recognised incorporated into (large scale) modelling, evidence approaches vulnerability still lacking.   Within the MYRIAD-EU project we have collected empirical other accounting a...
Abstract When multiple weather‐driven hazards such as heatwaves, droughts, storms or floods occur simultaneously consecutively, their impacts on society and the environment can compound. Despite recent advances in compound event research, risk assessments by practitioners policymakers remain predominantly single‐hazard focused. This is largely due to traditional siloed approaches that assess manage natural hazards. Hence, there a need adopt more ‘multi‐hazard approach’ managing events...
Abstract. Flooding causes serious impacts on the old town of Venice, its residents, and cultural heritage. Despite this existence-defining condition, limited scientific knowledge flood risk Venice is available to support decisions mitigate existing future impacts. Therefore, study proposes a assessment framework provide methodical flexible instrument for decision-making management in Venice. We first use state-of-the-art hydrodynamic urban model identify hazard characteristics inside city...
Abstract This perspective article explores the role of data visualisation in decision-making under deep uncertainty (DMDU), a growing discipline tackling complex socio-environmental challenges, such as climate impacts and adaptation, natural resource management, preparedness for extreme events. We discuss both analysis (or exploratory ) purposes, well communication explanatory including to stakeholders public. identify lack comprehensive guidelines on how visualisations are currently used...

Disaster Risk Management (DRM) is increasingly complex due to interacting climate risks from concurrent hazards. The Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways for Multi-Risk (DAPP-MR) framework has been introduced assess DRM policies' effectiveness under deep uncertainties - such as future change and develop integrated adaptive strategies considering interactions across hazards, sectors, time. So far, no use cases were available that provide evidence regarding the utility of DAPP-MR. In this...
Abstract. With accelerating climate change, impacts will compound and cascade, making them more complex to assess manage. At the same time, tools that help decision makers choose between different management options are very limited. This study introduces a visual analytics dashboard prototype designed support pathways analysis for multi-risk Disaster Risk Management (DRM). Developed through systematic design approach, employs interactive visualisations of their evaluation – including...
Climate change and socioeconomic developments are driving risks from natural hazards thus determine the effectiveness efficiency for disaster risk management strategies. With DAPP-MR, an approach to apply a decision-focused lens, longer-term planning perspective in multi-risk systems has been recently developed. DAPP-MR  guides exploration of pathways under uncertainty while explicitly accounting trade-offs synergies policy measures across (interconnected) sectors, hazards,...
The first priority of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction is Understanding Risk. To achieve this goal, it essential that research and practice draw upon previous disaster risk work. What can use terminology concepts tell us about barriers opportunities to further our understanding risks? How we build more effectively existing tools, methods, approaches inform future multi-hazard solutions? And what current multi-risk governance landscape in Europe? answer these questions,...
<p>While current adaptation planning approaches commonly focus on single hazards and individual sectors, a paradigm shift in decision-making is required to account for the increasingly interconnected world. Decision making support tools are needed enable fair distribution of (increasingly) limited resources (i.e. space, financial means). No such integrated exist yet that dependencies, conflicts, co-benefits between various stakeholders as well knowledge regarding dependencies...
