Extraction, quote & page

Submitted extraction — not independently verified

到 2035-2044 年,受极端河流洪水影响的人口预计将增加超过 200 万人,到 2070-2100 年沿海洪水可能进一步影响 240 万人

Supplied page: p. 2

The number of people affected by an extreme river flood could grow by over 2 million by 2035-2044, and coastal flooding could affect a further 2.4 million people by 2070-2100.

Economic impact

Extraction, quote & page

Submitted extraction — not independently verified

洪涝灾害造成的年均损失估计约 26 亿美元,几乎占自然灾害相关损失的 100%

Supplied page: p. 16

According to the UNISDR, the average annual loss associated with flooding in Thailand is approximately US$2.6 billion, which represents almost 100% of losses associated with hazards.

Caveats: Quote says 2.4M coastal exposure, not the more precise 2.45M in the extraction. The 10–20% GDP decline lacks a supporting quote/source and is excluded. Economic page p.6 is absent from source page range; check original.
