Conclusions.This brief is based on an analysis that was performed on the 2010 winter storms that caused considerable damage to coastal communities in Atlantic Canada. The hazards that occurred were associated with storm surge, high waves, coastal erosion, and flooding. The analysis covered a large multisite longitudinal project, where a participatory action research (PAR) approach was used to understand how people in 10 coastal communities perceive and experience extreme weather events and to enhance their capacity to adapt and improve their resilience. This brief exposes the outcome of two series of interviews and activities that were conducted during the project, as well as the lessons learned, and general elements that should be considered when researchers collaborate with communities to define adaptation and resilience strategies. It makes an important contribution to the application of PAR as an integrated (social-ecological) approach to resilience and how such an approach can be adapted also to other communities.SpringerBriefs in Geography,2211-4173Natural disastersPhysical geographyClimatologySociologyMethodologyEnvironmental sciencesSocial aspectsManagementNatural HazardsEarth System SciencesClimate SciencesSociological MethodsEnvironmental Social SciencesManagementNatural disasters.Physical geography.Climatology.SociologyMethodology.Environmental sciencesSocial aspects.Management.Natural Hazards.Earth System Sciences.Climate Sciences.Sociological Methods.Environmental Social Sciences.Management.551Vasseur Lietteauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1059786Thornbush Mary Jauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autPlante Steveauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299402803321Adaptation to Coastal Storms in Atlantic Canada2508171UNINA02366nam 22004573a 450 991051611010332120250513222151.097831615828443161582845https://doi.org/10.1628/978-3-16-158284-4(CKB)4100000010081526(ScCtBLL)61078ee2-e43b-4a26-9a55-d0613510a7c130108(EXLCZ)99410000001008152620220106i20192021 uu geruru||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGriechische Götter unter sich : Lukian, Göttergespräche /Andreas Bendlin, Adolf Martin Ritter, Janet Downie1.

Jh. n. Chr. nicht zuletzt dem jungen Christentum wichtige Argumente zur Bekämpfung des alten Götterglaubens liefern konnte. Die insgesamt fünfundzwanzig lebendigen dialogischen Szenen haben sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten nur begrenzter Aufmerksamkeit erfreut; nicht zuletzt deshalb werden sie hier neu präsentiert. Der hier vorgelegte Band bietet eine Einleitung in das Werk, einen erheblich revidierten griechischen Text, eine neue Übersetzung mit Anmerkungen sowie sechs Beiträge aus verschiedenen Disziplinen (Klassische Philologie, Alte Geschichte und Patristik), die die Bedeutung dieser Göttergespräche nicht nur im Kontext ihrer Zeit, sondern auch darüber hinaus umfassend erschließen wollen.Literary Criticism / Ancient & ClassicalbisacshLiteratureHistory and criticismLiterary Criticism / Ancient & ClassicalLiteratureHistory and criticism.Bendlin Andreas1206252Ritter Adolf MartinDownie JanetScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910516110103321Griechische Götter unter sich2783090UNINA
