Author J. Johnson

The costs (consequences) of over-predicting (type I errors, or false alarms) or under-predicting (type II errors, or misses) natural disasters is examined in Verkade, 2008, "The value of flood warning systems [masters thesis][dead link]", Delft University of Technology.

This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Alarm dilemma.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
