The Role of Climate Data in the Planning Processes in Germany
This report aims to give an overview of the planning processes in Germany for bridges, hydropower dams and coastal protection. An in depth analysis of when and how climate data influences this process, will take place. Diagrams and examples will aid this process in defining key entry points for climate data.
How to Interpret Climate Information for the Assessment of Climate Risks
The main challenge of integrating climate information into risk assessments are opposing approaches for assessing climate risks and adaptation options and its implications for the design of climate information products. This guide breaks down the process using Cai Lon – Cai Be climate risk assessment as an example.
