| Water stress | Low-Medium (10-20%) | Among large cities: above 30% | In China: 88 of 135 |
| Drought risk | High | Among large cities: above 50% | In China: 1 of 135 |
| Earthquake shaking, once in 475 years | 0.15 m/s² | Among large cities: above 17% | In China: 115 of 135 |

| Cyclone wind, once in 100 years | 0 m/s |
Flood depth is read in a single 1 km cell at the city's centre, in today's climate. Other parts of the city can still flood. The country page names the deepest point near a coastal city in 2080, so its figure can be higher. See how deep a river flood reaches around Ankang on the live map
