However, there is now wide recognition of the need to incorporate disaster risk management concerns in dealing with such phenomena. There is also a growing awareness of the neccessity for a multi-sectoral approach in managing the effects of climate variability and climate change, since this can lead to a significant reduction of risk. This book presents the latest findings from scientific research on climate variation, climate change and their links with disaster risk management. It showcases projects and other initiatives in this field that are being undertaken in both industrialised and developing countries, by universities and scientific institutions, government bodies, national and international agencies, NGOs and other stakeholders. Finally, it discusses current and future challenges, identifying opportunities and highlighting the still unrealised potential for promoting better understanding of the connections between climate variation, climate change and disaster risk management worldwide. . 410 0$aClimate change management (Springer (Firm)) 606 $aClimatic changes$xRisk management$vCongresses 606 $aNatural disasters$xRisk assessment$vCongresses 615 0$aClimatic changes$xRisk management 615 0$aNatural disasters$xRisk assessment 676 $a363.7387 701 $aLeal Filho$b Walter$0326246 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438076203321 996 $aClimate change and disaster risk management$94193449 997 $aUNINA
