Commission adopted a new Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change aiming to reinforce the adaptive capacity and minimize … with respect to both the intertemporal consumption and the mix between an insurance (adaptation) against the magnitude of … the catastrophic losses, and an effort strategy (mitigation) aimed at reducing the frequency of such losses. The …

addresses this issue by carrying out an integrated analysis of both optimal mitigation and adaptation at the global and regional … pessimistic one, in which policy-driven adaptation bears the burden, together with mitigation, of reducing climate damage; and an … level. Adaptation responses are disentangled into three different modes: reactive adaptation, proactive (or anticipatory …

mitigation. The increasing emphasis on adaptation raises a set of still unanswered questions concerning the design of an optimal … mix of mitigation and adaptation measures. This paper presents an Integrated Assessment Model (IAM) that explicitly models … the connections between mitigation, climate change impacts and adaptation. Compared to the few existing studies in the …

It has become commonly accepted that a successful climate strategy should compound mitigation and adaptation. The … accurate combination between adaptation and mitigation that can best address climate change is still an open question.

This paper studies the influence of productivity, pollution sensitivity, and adaptive capacity on optimal mitigation … and adaptation in a two country global pollution model. We investigate the effects of changes of these parameters on the … allocation of emissions, adaptation expenditures, and welfare. In our analysis we distinguish between cooperative and …

The effects of adaptation and mitigation on the impacts of sea level rise are studied. Without either, the impacts of …. Adaptation would reduce impacts by a factor 10 to 100. As adaptation depends on socio-economic status, the rank order of most … vulnerable countries is not the same as the rank order of most exposed countries. Adaptation would come at a minor cost compared …
