Challenges for planning climate resilience through the co-creation living lab approach in the Mediterranean coastal town of Piran

open book

SCORE project partner ZRS has published a paper in the Journal for Geography. It is available in open access. Abstract Climate change resilience for urban coastal communities is a pressing matter considering hazards like sea-level rise, coastal flooding and erosion. Adapting to such changes and creating climate change resilience should be an all-stakeholder process. This…

Building Climate Resilience in Coastal City Living Labs Using Ecosystem-Based Adaptation: A Systematic Review

open book

SCORE project partners, ATU and ENT have published a paper in the Sustainability journal. It is available in open access. Abstract Climate change leads to an unequivocal rise in the intensity and frequency of natural disasters. This necessitates mainstreaming of climate adaptation strategies in the global movement on climate action. Ecosystem-Based Adaptation (EBA) has become…

Prediction of Actual from Climatic Precipitation with Data Collected from Northern Poland

open book

SCORE project partners, UG, TUKE, ATU, and ZRS have published a paper in the Sensors journal. This paper is available in open access. Abstract Water is a basic element of the natural environment and the most important component in human water management. Rainfall is the main source of water. Therefore, determining the amount of precipitation…

Management of Climate Resilience: Exploring the Potential of Digital Twin Technology, 3D City Modelling, and Early Warning Systems

open book

SCORE project partner, Atlantic Technological University, has just published a paper in the Sensors journal. This paper is available in open access. Abstract Cities, and in particular those in coastal low-lying areas, are becoming increasingly susceptible to climate change, the impact of which is worsened by the tendency for population concentration in these areas. Therefore, comprehensive…

Socio-Economic Assessment of Ecosystem-Based and Other Adaptation Strategies in Coastal Areas

open book

SCORE project partners, ENT, IHS, Tero and ENoLL, published a paper in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering. This paper is available in open access. Abstract Coastal areas are highly vulnerable to climate-change hazards (e.g., sea-level rise, flooding, coastal erosion), which can lead to significant impacts at the ecosystem and societal level. Interest in…

Low-Cost Sensors for Monitoring Coastal Climate Hazards – A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open book

SCORE project partner, Atlantic Technological University, published a paper in the Sensors journal. This paper is available in open access. Abstract Unequivocal change in the climate system has put coastal regions around the world at increasing risk from climate-related hazards. Monitoring the coast is often difficult and expensive, resulting in sparse monitoring equipment lacking in…
