The methodology used to develop the scientific basis and the societal agreement of the need to adapt to climate change is applicable also to other regions in Vietnam, Asia and worldwide. The uncertainties of climate change models make it difficult to justify investments to finance protection from uncertain impacts. Setting out with the projected climate change impacts in Vietnam, which is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change, the book describes a methodological approach to assess and evaluate local vulnerabilities of natural resources to climate change and socio-economic impacts, engaging local stakeholders in the development of locally acceptable and economically feasible adaptation measures. The methodological approach to understand the vulnerabilities and to develop climate change adaptation measures was scenario workshops that supported the communication between scientists and stakeholders. The development of climate change adaptation strategies is nearly state-of-the-art in many countries, but often there is still a large step towards implementing climate change adaptation measures on the local level. The challenge in the development of adaptation measures lies in their acceptability by local stakeholders and decision makers. Climate change adaptation measures also usually demand investments. To understand potential future risks the communication methodology was to first get a good understanding of the natural resources (mainly surface and groundwater) and their potential vulnerabilities (current and future). This was followed by developing a common understanding of current risk patterns, as well as underlying vulnerabilities and hazards. Socio-economic developments have an equally strong, and in the short term mostly even stronger, impact on the living environment and natural resources as long-term climate change impacts. The scenario workshops developed a holistic approach on current and potential future risk patterns, with a special focus on surface and groundwater quantities and qualities, natural hazards and sea level rise. Land-use planning was identified as playing a decisive role in minimizing current and future risks. Finally, first adaptation measures for two Vietnamese provinces were developed and shall be implemented over the next years. The methodology that led to these adaptation measures shall be applied in other Vietnamese provinces. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Earth Sciences,$x2191-5369 606 $aNatural disasters 606 $aClimate change 606 $aHydrology 606 $aCoasts 606 $aGeography 606 $aNatural Hazards$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G32000 606 $aClimate Change Management and Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000 606 $aHydrology/Water Resources$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/211000 606 $aCoastal Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35020 606 $aGeography, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J00000 615 0$aNatural disasters. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aCoasts. 615 0$aGeography. 615 14$aNatural Hazards. 615 24$aClimate Change Management and Policy. 615 24$aHydrology/Water Resources. 615 24$aCoastal Sciences. 615 24$aGeography, general. 676 $a577.2 676 $a577.22 700 $aSchmidt-Thomé$b Philipp$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0872448 702 $aNguyen$b Thi Ha$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aPham$b Thanh Long$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aJarva$b Jaana$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aNuottimäki$b Kristiina$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299431403321 996 $aClimate Change Adaptation Measures in Vietnam$92531230 997 $aUNINA
