Description

 

The  report takes stock of the availiable knowledge about vulnerabilities, adaptaton options and decision-making approaches for infrastructures in the Energy, Transport and Construction sectors. For each sector the following questions are adressed:

  1. What (climate) data is available and needed for the assessment of climate impacts?
  2. What information is available in terms of vulnerability and risk assessments?
  3. What adaptation options are used in the infrastructure sector?
  4. What decision-making tools, methodologies and mechanisms are used to address these climate impacts and vulnerabilities?

The report scoped over185 sources (including Climate-ADAPT) focused on European coverage mainly, however some publications with a global, US or Australian focus were considered as well.
