The figure from the paper shows three columns of bar charts, each bar chart representing GDP at risk for a specific world region. Image caption: In the study, the researchers further break down the results by disaster type. This figure shows how much GDP is at risk across global regions due to spillover effects through trade, assuming that all direct climate damages from a specific type of event occur. Each panel looks at one disaster type separately, meaning that only that type of event is considered. The light and dark bars show the uncertainty of indirect losses depending on how flexible supply chains are.
