Tsunami Risk

Nomadino tsunami-risk index on a 0-100 risk-point scale. Lower is better. The raw value combines ThinkHazard tsunami hazard levels, INFORM Risk 2026 tsunami exposure, earthquake and volcano trigger context, coastal and island exposure, vulnerability/coping-capacity signals and explicit replacement values for uncovered territories. Score equals 100 minus raw value.

How the Raw Value Is Calculated

The raw value is Nomadino tsunami risk in risk points from 0 to 100. 0 means no relevant open-ocean exposure, while 100 means extreme structural exposure from tsunami hazard, exposed coastal population, trigger proximity and limited coping capacity.

The calculation combines six components: 40% ThinkHazard tsunami level, 30% INFORM tsunami exposure, 10% earthquake, volcano and landslide trigger context, 8% vulnerability and coping capacity, 7% documented tsunami and ocean-basin context, and 5% coastal exposure.

The main anchors are ThinkHazard and the INFORM Risk Index 2026. ThinkHazard provides the hazard level by country or region, while INFORM provides comparable values for expected annual tsunami exposure and exposed population. Both are used together so a coarse national hazard class cannot decide the result alone.

NOAA/NCEI, NOAA Tsunami.gov and the UNESCO-IOC Tsunami Programme are used as public plausibility sources for historical events, triggers, warning systems and especially exposed ocean basins. These sources do not replace the country formula, but prevent misclassification of island states, Caribbean settings, Pacific zones and very large countries.

Landlocked countries without open-ocean coastline receive 0 risk points; countries only on enclosed inland seas receive a very low replacement value. Missing ThinkHazard values for coastal countries are not read as low risk, but checked against INFORM, coastline position, triggers and explicit replacement values.

Minimum values apply to clear high-risk settings such as Japan, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Tonga, Indonesia, the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Chile, Samoa, New Zealand, Peru, Ecuador, Fiji, Central America and parts of the Caribbean. Ceilings prevent very large countries with only regional tsunami belts from being rated like small Pacific islands across the whole country.

Small or dependent territories use explicit Nomadino replacement values derived from administering state, island or coastal position, ocean basin, historical event proximity, warning-system context and plausible comparator countries.

The score is derived directly from the raw value: score = 100 minus raw value. A lower raw value therefore improves the ranking.
