Ten pillars (0–100)

SSP5-8.5 2085 stress test

Under the SSP5-8.5 stress test for 2085, the combined score is 30 of 100.

This cell's combined hazard score is 41.4; its strongest pillar is air quality at 75.2 and its weakest is flood at 1.4. Flood. Flood pillar 1.4, safer than 1% of land cells; modelled hundred-year river flood depth 14.5 m.

Wind pillar 11.1, safer than 11% of land cells; tornado touchdowns nearby 12.7 touchdowns/decade. Source: NOAA Storm Prediction Center (vintage: 1950-2024). Hurricane. Wind pillar 11.1, safer than 11% of land cells; tropical storm passes nearby 1.3 storms/decade. Source: IBTrACS (vintage: v04r01). Earthquake. Earthquake pillar 63.5, safer than 27% of land cells and level with 73%; large earthquakes nearby since the start of the century before last 0 events/century.

Air quality. Air quality pillar 75.2, safer than 75% of land cells; fine-particle air pollution 7.3 µg/m³. Source: Washington University SatPM2.5 (vintage: 2020-2024 annual mean). Coverage: Every pillar has data for this cell. 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.
