Nevertheless, limited information is available on which to base development of early warning systems, identification of high-risk zones, and formulation of local action plans. This book is about how to build the knowledge necessary for planning adaptation to climate change in Sub-Saharan cities. It brings together lessons learned from international development actions conducted by a number of scholars in disciplines ranging from meteorology and hydrogeology to urban planning and environmental management. Selected methods to assess the impacts of extreme weather and ecological stress are presented along with possible approaches to improve the adaptive capacity of Sub-Saharan cities through institutional measures at the local government level. The book is addressed to graduate students, researchers, and practitioners interested in enhancing their knowledge and skills in order to integrate climate change into applied research and development projects in urban Africa.Springer Climate,2352-0698Climate changeRegional planningUrban planningClimate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Climate Change Management and Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000Landscape/Regional and Urban Planninghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000Climate change.Regional planning.Urban planning.Climate Change.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Climate Change Management and Policy.Landscape/Regional and Urban Planning.363.738740968Macchi Silviaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtTiepolo Maurizioedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299553203321Climate Change Vulnerability in Southern African Cities2543211UNINA
