Urban Regions: Vulnerabilities, Vulnerability Assessments by Indicators and Adaptation Options for Climate Change Impacts - a Scoping Study

This study assesses the feasibility of developing climate change related vulnerability indicators for urban areas to support future EU spatial development policy by reviewing available literature and research activities. The aim of the project is to assess and test the potential for developing policy relevant and scientifically‐sound vulnerability indicators for EEA stakeholders (European Commission and European city networks) to indicate which cities and urban regions might be harmed by climate related threats.
