Our comparative analysis is based on a novel dataset of 45 paired events from around the world, of which 26 event pairs are floods and 19 are droughts. The events occurred between 1947 and 2019, and the average period between the two events of a pair is 16 years. The number of ...
With other natural disasters, as pollution, there is a recent discovery that join human acts as the Kyoto's protocol (2005) can be effective for reallocating CO2 emissions around the world (Pen˜a et al., 2022). The results also show that the presence of a flood event with casualties ...
