As the two countries chosen as examples differ significantly in their adaptation strategies and the corresponding legal regulations, the author presents general ideas on how any legal framework facing similar challenges could be improved. In particular, (flood) risk assessments, coastal defences and flood-resistant design as well as spatial and land use planning are discussed, including managed retreat. Moreover, conflicts as well as potential synergies of coastal adaptation and nature conservation are examined. Due to the thorough analysis this book is not just an essential read for policymakers and researchers interested in the coastal area but climate change adaptation in general as many general findings are transferrable to other impacts. 606 $aInternational environmental law 606 $aPrivate international law 606 $aConflict of laws 606 $aEcology  606 $aLaw of the sea 606 $aInternational law 606 $aInternational Environmental Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19070 606 $aPrivate International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law $3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R14002 606 $aEcology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19007 606 $aLaw of the Sea, Air and Outer Space$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19060 615 0$aInternational environmental law. 615 0$aPrivate international law. 615 0$aConflict of laws. 615 0$aEcology . 615 0$aLaw of the sea. 615 0$aInternational law. 615 14$aInternational Environmental Law. 615 24$aPrivate International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law . 615 24$aEcology. 615 24$aLaw of the Sea, Air and Outer Space. 676 $a344.43046 700 $aSchumacher$b Linda$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01424629 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910741158703321 996 $aThe Law of Coastal Adaptation$93554012 997 $aUNINA
