Table 2.

Risk matrix. Risk levels are expressed as a function of hazard intensity (classified according to return period TR) and sensitivity: no (N), very low (VL), low (L), moderate (M), high (H), very high (VH).

Sensitivity
No (N) Low (L) Moderate (M) High (H)
Hazard intensity Very high (TR  100yr) N M H VH
High (100yr>TR  50yr) N M M H
Moderate (50yr > TR  20yr) N L M M
Low (20yr > TR  10yr) N L L M
Very low (10yr > TR  2yr) N VL L L
No (TR < 2yr) N N N N
