Abstract
The concept of self-organized criticality evolved from studies of three simple cellular automata models: the forest-fire, slider-block, and sandpile models. Each model is associated with natural hazards which have frequency-size statistics that are well approximated by power law distributions. These distributions have important implications for probabilistic hazard assessments.
