Cascading hazards, also known as compound hazards, concurrent or consecutive hazards, are natural hazards that build upon one another think floods caused by hurricanes or fires caused by earthquakes breaking a gas line. The terms also sometimes incorporate the built environment, like water pipelines, communications fib ....
