Supplementary notes

The source adds: "Individual risk is the risk posed by a danger (a landslide, a flood) to a single person and is expressed by the death rate. Death rate is the ratio of deaths to the population of a particular area or during a particular period of time. In the report, the death rate is given by the number of dead and missing people in one year every 100,000 people."
