The average recurrence intervals for ash falls exceeding 1, 10 or 100 mm, at 10 km resolution. Within the country profiles there is also information on total population within 10, 30 and 100 km and the proportion of that relative to the total country population. It also contains Volcano Hazard Index for those volcanoes that can be classified (n=328) and the Population Exposure Index for every volcano worldwide: this in essence provides information on the population exposure within 10, 30 and 100 km of the volcano, weighted by the likelihood of fatalities from volcanic processes. This paper includes 23 case studies from around the world on various topics related to volcanic hazard, risk, and risk management. The information can be found in the technical background paper titled: “Global Volcanic Hazard and Risk,” (GVM, 2014b). Current status of hazard and risk modelling methods - Current status of monitoring and early warning systems, as well as planning and emergency response practice around the world. Description of various methodologies for measuring eruption size, classifying hazard level of a volcano, and description of potential impact. The work consists of three components: (a) Comprehensive technical information on volcanic hazard, historical events, exposure and vulnerability, (b) Profile of regions and all countries with active volcanoes, (c) Global volcanic ash fall hazard modelling GVM/IAVCEI contributions to GAR15 includes in-depth information on: - Global inventory volcano and their activity rate - Historical events, mortality data, and impacts - Scientific description of volcanic hazards, types of volcanoes, and categories of eruption - Characteristics of vulnerability to volcano hazards, including physical, social, agricultural, etc. For commercial applications please contact the responsible named in this metadata We would, however, appreciate if users of this data let us know how it was used and to receive a copy of or link to any related publication in order to better identify the needs of our users.
