Descriptive analysis (Fig. 4) reveals the mean, minimum, and maximum of disaster-related loss, disaster risk, and disaster resilience. The average loss due to natural disasters is more in LMICs (24,726.8 per million) followed by LICs (21,325.0 per million), UMICs (17,334.7 per million), and HICs (2488.2 per million). The value of the disaster risk ...
The correlation plot (Fig. 7) shows the pairwise correlation coefficients between variables (i.e., disaster loss, time, disaster risk, and disaster resilience). The correlation coefficient is less than 0.5 in each case, which shows the absence of multicollinearity. A positive correlation exists between disaster loss and risk in each case whereas a ...
The results of negative binomial regression show the impact of time (1995–2019), disaster risk, and disaster resilience on disaster loss in HICs (Table 2), UMICs (Table 3), LMICs (Table 4), and LICs (Table 5). The increase in the expected log count of the number of affected people due to natural disasters was 17.015 (HICs), 6.652 (UMICs), 4.927 (LM...
