The first chapter analyses how sea level rise, changing ocean conditions, or increased climate variability and the socio-environmental context of the coastal zone leads to vulnerable communities. The second chapter addresses adaptation strategies and tools, and gives some examples of their application around the world. The third chapter describes participative action research projects undertaken in New Brunswick and how this community based approach has enabled communities to increase their climate resilience.SpringerBriefs in Environmental Science,2191-5547Climatic changesCoastsSustainable developmentRegional planningCity planningClimate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Coastal Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35020Sustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Landscape/Regional and Urban Planninghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000Climatic changes.Coasts.Sustainable development.Regional planning.City planning.Climate Change.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Coastal Sciences.Sustainable Development.Landscape/Regional and Urban Planning.333.7338.927551.6551457577.27710Weissenberger Sebastianauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1063907Chouinard Omerauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299440103321Adaptation to Climate Change and Sea Level Rise2535233UNINA
