Yellow is the fireball radius and direct damage from the fire ball. Everything within yellow is frankly dust. Casualties 100% dependent on the height of the fireball and the detonation over the target.

Red is the Air blast, about 20PSI of over pressure. Concrete buildings are destroyed. fatalities are about 100%

Green is the radiation radius, exposure to 500 rems fatalities are at 50% to 90% from instant death to long term death over several weeks from acute radiation sickness.

Grey is secondary air blast at 4 psi of over pressure. Most buildings will be damaged from severe to demolished, Casualties range but the expectation would be about 50% to 80% depending on exposure or the building damage.

Orange is Thermal radiation pulse. instant third degree burns to exposed skin, flammable materials will ignite, with the larger bombs you would see a fire storm.
