This is a question we are frequently asked by planners, policy makers and other professionals charged with the task of developing and implementing adaptation strategies. While adaptation is increasingly recognized as an important climate risk management strategy, and on-the-ground adaptation planning activity is becoming more common-place, there is no clear guidance as to what success would look like, what to aim for and how to judge progress.This edited volume makes significant progress toward unpacking the question of successful adaptationClimatic changesEffect of human beings onClimatic changesSocial aspectsHuman ecologyClimatic changesEffect of human beings on.Climatic changesSocial aspects.Human ecology.363.738/744Boykoff Maxwell T890986Moser Susanne C1194960MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822869003321Successful adaptation to climate change4069442UNINA
