This document expands upon that work in three ways (1) adding weather related billion dollar disasters prior to 1980, (2) adding other than weather-related U.S. billion dollar disasters – such as the Northridge Earthquake and the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks -- and (3) adding other at-hand statistics on the same disasters treated by the NCDC. 2 Authors state that “normalization reflects inflation, changes in personal wealth and coastal county populations to 2005, (Pielke et al. 2007) then including an estimate to 2006 dollars by increasing totals by 5%.” 3 Cites: State of California, Department of Water Resources, Alternatives for Increasing Flood Insurance Participation for Communities Behind Levees in California.
