SSP5-8.5 2085 stress test

Under the SSP5-8.5 stress test for 2085, the combined score is 37 of 100.

This cell's combined hazard score is 43.8; its strongest pillar is water stress at 80.6 and its weakest is air quality at 4.6. Flood. Flood pillar 31.6, safer than 15% of land cells and level with 32%; modelled hundred-year river flood depth 2.5 m.

Wind pillar 61.2, safer than 22% of land cells and level with 78%; tropical storm passes nearby 0 storms/decade. Source: IBTrACS (vintage: v04r01). Earthquake. Earthquake pillar 37.0, safer than 15% of land cells and level with 45%; large earthquakes nearby since the start of the century before last 0 events/century.

Air quality pillar 4.6, safer than 5% of land cells; fine-particle air pollution 40.9 µg/m³. Source: Washington University SatPM2.5 (vintage: 2020-2024 annual mean). Water stress. Water stress pillar 80.6, safer than 68% of land cells and level with 25%; water stress 0 score. Source: WRI Aqueduct 4.0 (vintage: Aqueduct 4.0, July 2023). Coverage: Tornado records cover the United States only, so this area has no tornado reading: a gap in the record, not a measured zero. This is a statistical summary of public hazard data, a research estimate, not advice about any property or decision.

Terra scores ~10 km hexagonal cells from public global datasets — it is area analysis, not a property assessment. Tornado history covers the United States only; flood hazard is modeled at ~1 km and ignores local defenses; hurricane records before 1966 and wildfire records before 2001 are incomplete. Where data is missing or coarse for your area, Terra says so instead of guessing.
