Significant Negative Impact

Climate extremes have become one of the most serious global issues with a significant negative impact on society, economy and environment. The alarming trend of intensity and frequency of climate extremes raises the concern of the public. Coastal cities addressing in the vulnerable areas which influenced by the interactions between the land and the sea, suffer a larger loss because of the concentrated exposure of population and wealth. This paper contributed to proposing a mechanism in which shows how climate extremes influence the environmental system. Through the aspects of severity, exposure and vulnerability, the formation of disaster risk is interpreted. Finally, an indicator system of climate extreme risk assessment is systematically fixed in allusion to coastal cities.
