The climate change impacts on sea level rise and coastal disasters, and the possible adaptation responses have been studied using very different approaches, such as very detailed site-specific engineering studies and global macroeconomic assessments of costal zones vulnerability. This paper...

The costs of coastal sector impacts from sea level rise (SLR) are an important component of the total projected economic damages of climate change, a major input to decision-making and design of climate policy. Moreover, the ultimate costs to coastal resources will depend strongly on adaptation,...

Purpose – Sea level rise represents potentially one of the costliest impacts of climate change on the Croatian coast. Therefore, the purpose and goal of this paper is analysing the potential effects of sea level rise on Croatia and the preventive measures to be taken in order to reduce the...

In the coming decades, sea level rise will increasingly raise an array of legal challenges concerning coastal States, and in particular, low-lying Small Island Developing States (SIDS). This report assesses how States could safeguard their existing territorial rights and marine resources under...
