| dc.description.abstract | The paper focuses the patterns seen in the number of victims from natural catastrophic phenomena. We consider the number of victims of storms from 1900 up to 2013 in 11 countries and study the distributions of the events with more than 30 deadly victims. The similarities among events across the 11 countries are analysed using agglomerative hierarchical clustering. Countries belonging to the same cluster are similar with respect to fatalities. Power laws and hierarchical clustering provide comparable results for the data. Future work is needed in order to explore these numerical tools in more countries and in victims of other hazards. | pt_PT |
