Consider the following sentences from a 2012 Nature publication analyzing the risk surrounding Hurricanes (called TC - tropical storms in the text below):
"…The multiple regression analysis showed that the intensity of the hazard, the level of population exposure, the level of poverty and the level of governance were the main factors accounting for risk."
"…poverty levels are less significant when facing very intense TCs, whereas at lower intensities only the poorest suffer heavy losses."
Explain why the geography of risk might change for a population as the intensity of a tropical storm changes.
