Catastrophe Risk & Resilience

The latest #DiamondOpenAccess peer-reviewed articles published on the Journal website have set the stage for open conversation and debate on the use and validation of catastrophe models.

Last month, we published a paper authored by Dominick Dusseau, Zachary Zobel, and Christopher Schwalm, Woodwell Climate Research Center which analysed the performance of seven catastrophe flood models and the wide range of loss estimates from the state level to the asset level - https://journalofcrr.com/research/04-01-dusseau-et-al/

Editorial Note: The authors have alerted the Journal to data and methodological errors. The paper is currently undergoing post-publication peer review to assess a major correction.
