In this era of rapid climate change there is an urgent need for interdisciplinary collaboration and understanding in the study of what determines resistance to disasters and recovery speed. This paper is an economist's contribution to that effort. It

A continuous random vector (X,Y) uniquely determines a copula C:[0,1]2→[0,1] such that when the distribution functions of X and Y are properly composed into C, the joint distribution function of (X,Y) results. A copula is said to be D4-invariant if
