A report produced in 2004 by the United Nations Development Programme, which pioneered a "disaster-risk index", noted that some countries, such as Papua New Guinea, were poorly represented in the model because they are "affected by hazards that are not of global significance", such as tsunamis and landslides.
Absorptive capacity is captured through access to credit, asset, diversification, flood disaster exposure indices.
Some strategies for effectively managing climate related disasters include index based insurance products, which are increasingly offered as alternatives to traditional insurance, particularly in low-income countries.
