Methods to Assess the Effects of Climate Change on Health
❏ A variety of methods are required to assess the potential impacts of climate change on human health, including: spatial analogue studies, predictive modelling (biological models or empirical-statistical models) and expert judgement. ❏ Climate impact and adaptation assessments should incorporate the following steps: selecting the most appropriate climate and socio-economic scenarios; validatio...
متن کاملUsing a Social Justice and Health Framework to Assess European Climate Change Adaptation Strategies
Climate change puts pressure on existing health vulnerabilities through higher frequency of extreme weather events, changes in disease vector distribution or exacerbated air pollution. Climate change adaptation policies may hold potential to reduce societal inequities. We assessed the role of public health and social justice in European climate change adaptation using a three-fold approach: a d...
متن کاملA New Framework to Assess Relative Ecosystem Vulnerability to Climate Change
Climate change poses a growing risk to global biodiversity. To prioritize conservation efforts, identification of the species and ecosystems most at risk from further changes in climatic conditions is critically needed. Although frameworks are available to assess species vulnerability to climate change, we still lack an easily implementable, ecosystem-level perspective to inform landscape manag...
متن کاملMapping climate change in European temperature distributions
Climate change poses challenges for decision makers across society, not just in preparing for the climate of the future but even when planning for the climate of the present day. When making climate sensitive decisions, policy makers and adaptation planners would benefit from information on local scales and for user-specific quantiles (e.g. the hottest/coldest 5% of days) and thresholds (e.g. d...
