Researchers from U.K.’s Durham University have developed a new seismic risk model to focus on potential impacts and help mitigate disaster risk in earthquake-prone regions, Science Daily reported. The method is expected to help risk planners to better understand the consequences of multiple quake scenarios compared with the standard probabilistic and deterministic risk model.
