Impact-relevant durations can then be utilised to develop time-dependent intensity-damage functions which allow us to identifyhazard-impact thresholds. Input parameters for both methods include hazard metrics (e.g., temperature for heat waves; soil moisture for droughts) as well as impact/damage (e.g., mortality; hospitalisations) or societal response metrics (e.g., media attention). Our approach is quantitative and data-driven, enabling precise analysis of hazards in the context of their impacts. These methods, which are applicable a range of both single and multi-hazard scenarios, currently utilise datasets within the health sector and public attention domains, though have potential for expansion to other sectors where temporally consistent impact datasets are available.<br /> <br /> [[File:How-define-1024x399.png|thumb|center| Approach for impact-relevant durations]]<br /> <br /> [[File:Input-data-1024x460.png|thumb|center| Approach for time-dependent intensity-damage functions]]<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Technical considerations&#039;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> ADD TEXT HERE<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Keywords&#039;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> ADD TEXT HERE<br /> <br /> [[Category|CategoryPageName]]<br /> &lt;/div&gt;</div>
