Domain-specific¶
- Compound-Hazard Stacking
- The pattern is documented across major compound events: at Fukushima Daiichi, the earthquake mitigation infrastructure — seawall height, backup-power siting — was designed against the marginals and the joint tsunami exceeded the seawall while the earthquake damaged the backup-power systems the plant needed to respond
This sourceGives the design-basis tsunami height of about O.P. +5.7 m and the low siting of the emergency diesel generators, several in turbine-building basements. Gives the inundation and run-up heights at the Daiichi site, well above the seawall crest.

- Evacuation
- the identical pattern at a stairwell's spatial scale. Military operations — tactical withdrawal, non-combatant evacuation operations (NEO), and casualty medevac from a contested zone, with enemy action as the hazard and personnel, civilians, and high-value equipment as the protected. Hospital and care-home transfer — facility evacuation under utility loss, flood, or fire (NYU Langone during Sandy) and patient-transfer chains under degraded acute care, where destructibility of the protected sharpens the evacuate-versus-shelter choice. Radiological and chemical clearance — planned-zone evacuation around an exclusion radius (Chernobyl, Fukushima)

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
