Abstract:
Under a joint project between Chile and Spain, submarine and surface surveys were conducted, in the Cape Shirreff area, to search for the Spanish vessel San Telmo. The San Telmo was lost in September 1819 and its remains were reported by English sealers in the Shirreff area around 1820-1. Nothing has been found.
Quality
The production of the multihazard surface began by isolating those deciles most at-risk (deciles 8-10) of the individual hazard surfaces (Global Cyclone Proportional Economic Loss Risks, Global Drought Proportional Economic Loss Risks, etc.). These surfaces are reclassified into binary representing those areas considered most at-risk. Hazard categories are created by grouping specific hazards ... together. The categories are as follows:
Drought - droughts Seismic - earthquakes and volcanoes Hydro - cyclones, floods, and landslides
A binary highest-risk surface at the category-level was produced by summing the individual hazards and reclassifying as true all sums greater than zero.
