By their sheer size, adaptation investments are processes addressing multiple climate impacts at the same time. Nevertheless, cross-sectoral effects of adaptation measures are rarely taken into consideration in adaptation costing and cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA). We explicitly address joint...

<Para ID="Par1">Quantitative participatory exploration of the many complex issues surrounding cross-sectoral climate change impacts, vulnerability and adaptation under uncertain futures is dependent on the provision, in some form, of scenarios and scenario outputs. However, the normal provision by the research...</para>

Quantitative simulations of the global-scale benefits of climate change mitigation are presented, using a harmonised, self-consistent approach based on a single set of climate change scenarios. The approach draws on a synthesis of output from both physically-based and economics-based models, and...

This paper provides an overview of the development of the ‘Regional Impact Simulator’ – a user friendly software tool designed to allow stakeholders to perform integrated assessments of the effects of climate and/or socio-economic change on the important sectors and resources of two...

Policy makers and stakeholders are increasingly demanding impact assessmentswhich produce policy-relevant guidance on the local impacts of global climatechange. The 'Regional Climate Change Impact and Response Studies in East Angliaand North West England' (RegIS) study developed a methodology...

For some time past satellites have been orbiting the Earth and sending back images of it to ground stations. These remote‐sensing images are now accumulating in large numbers: present plans for satellite launches indicate that the growth rate will continue to rise further into the 1990s. In...
