There is an urgent need to ensure that coastal areas are adapting to the impacts of climate change. Risks in these areas are projected to increase because of rising sea levels and development pressures. This report reviews how OECD countries can use their national adaptation planning processes...

Der Umgang mit den Folgen des Klimawandels wird künftig zu den wichtigsten Aufgabenbereichen der Raumentwicklung gehören. Sowohl die Auswirkungen der fortschreitenden Klimaveränderungen als auch die damit einhergehenden Anpassungserfordernisse können eine hohe Raumrelevanz aufweisen. In der...
