- Near-Miss Normalization
- In climate and infrastructure operations, floods and heat events within historical envelopes become baseline despite a shifting climate, so the next event tests a new baseline against pre-shift design assumptions.
This sourceEstablishes that flood-frequency design assumptions built on a stationary historical envelope systematically underestimate risk under a shifting climate, so within-historical-envelope events get re-baselined while design lags the hazard.
