Technical Notes
CRED defines a disaster as a "situation or event, which overwhelms local capacity, necessitating a request to national or international level for external assistance (definition considered in EM-DAT); an unforeseen and often sudden event that causes great damage, destruction and human suffering". For a disaster to be entered into the database at least one of the following criteria must be fulfilled:
* 10 or more people reported killed
* 100 people reported affected
* Declaration of a state of emergency
* Call for international assistance
"Call for international assistance" should be noted well.
Are you cross-correlating these stats against anything special Feillyne ?
Not going to get much simpler than this graph. Certainly poses some questions....
Hmm, there's a table to show even more of it. In a simpler, calculating way.
