Resilience, Beatley explains, is a profoundly new way of viewing coastal infrastructure-an approach that values smaller, decentralized kinds of energy, water and transport more suited to the serious physical conditions coastal communities will likely face. Beatley provides case studies of five U.S. coastal communities, and "resilience profiles" of six North American communities, to suggest best practices and to propose guidelines for increasing resilience in threatened communities. 606 $aCoastal zone management$zUnited States 606 $aSustainable development$zUnited States 606 $aEmergency management$zUnited States 615 0$aCoastal zone management 615 0$aSustainable development 615 0$aEmergency management 676 $a333.91/7160973 700 $aBeatley$b Timothy$f1957-$034822 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824274103321 996 $aPlanning for coastal resilience$93991996 997 $aUNINA
