Potential land-use changes and population increases, coupled with uncertain predictions for sea level rise and storm frequency/intensity represent a significant planning challenge. While efforts to mitigate climate change continue, plans must be made to adapt to the risks that climate change poses to humans, infrastructure, and ecosystems alike. This book addresses integrated environmental assessment and management as part of the nexus of climate change adaptation. Risk analysis has emerged as a useful approach to guide assessment, communication and management of security risks. However, with respect to climate change, an integrated, multi-criteria, multi-hazard, risk-informed decision framework is desirable for evaluating adaptation strategies. The papers in Part 1 summarize societal and political needs for climate change adaptation. Part 2 includes papers summarizing the state of the art in climate change adaptation. Three further parts cover: the process of change in coastal regions, in inland regions, and, finally, the pot | 出版日期 | Conference proceedings 2011 | 关键词 | Adaptive management; Climate change; Environmental management; Environmental policy; Risk assessment; Cli | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-1770-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-1772-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-1770-1Series ISSN 1874-6519 Series E-ISSN 1874-6543 | issn_series | 1874-6519 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011 |
