I have go through different research papers which are useful to multi hazards vulnerability assessment, but most of the papers dealt with similar kind of hazards and their vulnerability assessment. Non of paper assimilate vulnerability imposed by both high intensive hazards like tropical storms along with slow onset hazards like drought. As different kind of hazards have different exposure group and difficult to assign with in a multi hazards vulnerability framework. So, I wants to know, availability of any guidelines or papers to assimilate different response into a common framework.
Hi Pradip,
The usual way to assess natural hazard is by using the concept of ARI (Average recurrence interval), it can be applied to all types of natural hazards so it is possible to compare hazards from different types of phenomena within a consistent framework. See for instance:
Conference Paper A Methodology for Consistent Modelling of Natural Phenomena
Hope it helps,

For analyzing economic and social impacts I suggest trying MERIT (Measuring the Economics of Resilient Infrastructure Tool)
https://www.naturalhazards.org.nz/NHRP/Hazard-themes/Societal-Resilience/EoRI/MERIT
At ITC we focus on using geosptial information for multi-hazard risk assessment (MHRA), including faster and slower onset hazards. I suggest you look at our MHRS guilde book and exercises. There is a project page on https://www.researchgate.net/project/Multi-Hazard-Risk-Assessment
In principle the conceptual approach to vulnerability assessment is the same for the different hazard types.
Best regards, Norman
