The bibliographical analysis of the possible impacts of climate change on natural hazard controlling factors, frequency, intensity, seasonality and location provides a state of knowledge for:

reconstitution of their past activity,
observation and instrumental data of their past activity,
modelling and demonstrations of their future activity,
hypotheses of their future evolution;

author's remarks (on the state of knowledge, methods, research field, etc.),
recommandations to the policy makers and risk managers,
expert comments.
