Abstract

This Nairobi and Istanbul Multi-Hazard Interrelationships Database uses a critical review of 135 sources (academic and grey literature, databases, online and social media), to identify the breadth of natural hazard types that might influence Nairobi (19 possible natural hazard types) and Istanbul (23 hazard types). We further identified hazard interrelationship pairs (e.g., an earthquake triggering landslides) in Nairobi (88 potential hazard interrelationship pairs) and Istanbul (105 hazard pairs) out of a possible 576 interrelationships. This extensive Excel (140 kb) database accompanies the paper Šakić Trogrlić et al. (2024).

The Nairobi and Istanbul Multi-Hazard Interrelationships Database consists of the following eight tabs (in brackets the number of rows [R] × columns [C] of information):

Excel Tab A. Single Hazard Evidence Nairobi (87R×16C)
Excel Tab B. Single Hazard Evidence Istanbul (68R×11C)
Excel Tab C. Hazard Interrelationships Nairobi (118R×14C)
Excel Tab D. Hazard Interrelationships Istanbul (122R×13C)
Excel Tab E. Definitions (Evidence Types) (7 definitions)
Excel Tab F. Definitions (Hazards) (31R×5C)
Excel Tab G. Definitions (Hazard Relations) (3 definitions)
Excel Tab H. References
For Nairobi (Tab A) and Istanbul (Tab B), each row in the database presents a source of evidence of a single hazard type influencing Nairobi or Istanbul. We compiled multiple evidence sources for many of the hazard types, each on its own row. In columns, we describe the evidence through various qualifiers, including the following:

identifying the hazard type (24 possible hazard types)
source information and URL link
source content
hazard interrelationships
anthropogenic influences
video evidence
source reflections
For Nairobi (Tab C) and Istanbul (Tab D), each row in the databases presents a source of evidence of a hazard interrelationship in Nairobi or Istanbul. In columns, we describe the evidence through various qualifiers, including the following:

primary hazard (24 hazard types)
secondary hazard (where applicable, the same 24 hazards as for the primary hazard)
the generic description of hazard interrelationship mechanisms
whether the relationship is triggered or increased probability or both
source information and URL link
source content (e.g., interrelationship type, description, and hazard sequence)
The reader is referred to Šakić Trogrlić et al. (2024) for a detailed description of the methodology by which this database was constructed.
