  • Beschreibung: <p>Previous statistics on losses due to natural disasters often only accounted for direct losses, with a lack of statistics of indirect losses due to difficulty in estimation. In order to explore the impact of coastal disasters on island economy and provide suggestions for national investment, this paper focuses on Taiwan province(China), which is an strategic part of China’s “One Belt One Road” initiative, and uses Supply-driven Input-Output Analysis to build an input-output model, taking typhoon as an example. The empirical results show that the Typhoon Fanapi has caused substantial damage to the agricultural industry in Taiwan (China), with a multiplier effect of output impairment of 1.33, and an increase in the unemployment rate of 0.06 percentage points.</p>
