Abstract

Abstract. Evaluating socio-economic losses due to natural disasters is a challenging task because of the combined complexity of the social and ecological systems affected. However, also under pressure from the expected effects of climate change, evaluating the socio-economic costs of natural catastrophes has become a vital need for policy makers, urban planners, and private agents (such as insurance companies and banks). This paper suggests a general framework encompassing all the important concepts which should be taken into account by the above agents in the assessment of natural disasters. In particular, we propose a simple and consistent set of relationships among vulnerability, resilience, hazard, risk, damage, and loss which can guide socio-economic assessment.

脆弱性、恢复力、危害、风险、损害和损失:自然灾害分析的社会生态框架
摘要由于受影响的社会和生态系统的复杂性,评估自然灾害造成的社会经济损失是一项具有挑战性的任务。然而,同样在气候变化预期影响的压力下,评估自然灾害的社会经济成本已成为决策者、城市规划者和私人代理人(如保险公司和银行)的重要需求。本文提出了一个包括上述机构在评估自然灾害时应考虑到的所有重要概念的一般框架。特别是,我们提出了一套简单而一致的脆弱性、恢复力、危害、风险、损害和损失之间的关系,可以指导社会经济评估。

期刊介绍: Web Ecology (WE) is an open-access journal issued by the European Ecological Federation (EEF) representing the ecological societies within Europe and associated members. Its special value is to serve as a publication forum for national ecological societies that do not maintain their own society journal. Web Ecology publishes papers from all fields of ecology without any geographic restriction. It is a forum to communicate results of experimental, theoretical, and descriptive studies of general interest to an international audience. Original contributions, short communications, and reviews on ecological research on all kinds of organisms and ecosystems are welcome as well as papers that express emerging ideas and concepts with a sound scientific background.
