Hydroclimatic Risk Mapping - Ethiopia

Hydroclimatic Risk Mapping - Ethiopia#

This documentation presents a reproducible, config-driven pipeline for seasonal hydroclimatic risk mapping over Ethiopia using the IPCC-aligned framework:

\[ R = H \times E \times V \]

where:

  • \(H\) is hazard (drought or excess wetness)

  • \(E\) is exposure (people, cropland, livestock, infrastructure)

  • \(V\) is vulnerability

Seasonal Forecast Analytics

From Ensemble Rainfall Forecasts To Actionable Risk Maps

A country-scale risk-screening workflow for Ethiopia that combines hazard, exposure, and vulnerability into interpretable outputs for planning, preparedness, and communication.

What you can do with this documentation#

Hazards

Inspect drought and excess-wetness hazard construction and JJAS hazard products.

Exposure

Review sectoral exposure layers with notebook-based raw and derived inspections.

Vulnerability

Explore drought and wetness vulnerability composition and supporting indicators.

Results Gallery
