Climate-related hazards are increasingly occurring in compound (co-occurring), consecutive (sequential), or cascading (interlinked) forms across space and time. These events often pose disproportionate risks to human and socio-economic systems, with many prominent examples in recent years. Traditional hazard and risk assessments often analyze individual hazards, failing to capture the interactions, amplifications, and nonlinearities of physical and social systems inherent in multi-hazard contexts. Furthermore, risk and ultimate impact are influenced by vulnerability and exposure, which can vary enormously across geographies, sectors, and demographics. This session invites contributions on all aspects of risk assessment and management for compound, consecutive, and cascading events. We welcome studies across disciplines that: i) improve understanding of physical processes; ii) develop or apply new methodologies for multi-hazard and multi-risk assessment; iii) quantify the impacts of multi-hazard events on human systems, agriculture, infrastructure, and the environment; iv) and explore solutions and strategies for risk governance and decision-making.
