Adaptation to ever intensifying climate change is of paramount importance to reduce its impacts, in particular for those at the frontlines of climate change such as the Caribbean Small Island Developing States (SIDS). However, a range of constraints make it harder to plan and implement adaptation and thus hinder adaptation progress. Here, we provide an assessment on regional perceptions of adaptation constraints and avenues to overcome them based on a mixed-method approach, combining an online survey and semi-structured interviews with adaptation experts from Caribbean SIDS. We find that finance is the largest constraint being faced which closely interacts with information, human capacity and governance constraints throughout the entire adaptation process. Such interacting constraints can lead to vicious cycles profoundly hindering adaptation and therefore need to be addressed in parallel. Our results highlight how adaptation actors at the national level, in particular national governments, have a key role to play when overcoming constraints for the implementation of adaptation projects at the local level, alongside regional and international organisations.

适应日益加剧的气候变化对于减少其影响至关重要,特别是对那些处于气候变化前沿的国家,如加勒比小岛屿发展中国家(SIDS)。然而,一系列制约因素使得规划和实施适应变得更加困难,从而阻碍了适应进展。在这里,我们基于一种混合方法,结合在线调查和对加勒比小岛屿发展中国家适应专家的半结构化访谈,对区域对适应限制的看法和克服这些限制的途径进行了评估。我们发现,在整个适应过程中,资金是面临的最大约束,与信息、人的能力和治理约束密切互动。这些相互作用的制约因素可能导致恶性循环,严重阻碍适应,因此需要并行处理。我们的研究结果强调了国家层面的适应行为者,特别是国家政府,在克服地方层面实施适应项目的限制时,与区域和国际组织一起发挥关键作用。

The frequency, intensity and duration of extreme weather events have seriously affected human life and production. The electric power sector is the foundation of economic activity as well as a core participant in the adaptation and mitigation of climate change. Therefore, in the context of climate change, it is crucial for the stable operation of the national economy for power sector to cope with different climate change risks and improve their adaptability to climate change. In this paper, listed power companies in China are selected as samples to analyse the impact of climate change risk on the financial performance of the power system's supply and transmission-distribution sides. The empirical results show a significant positive correlation between climate change risks and the financial performance of listed electric power companies. The rainfall index and drought index positively impact the financial performance of listed electric power companies. The cryogenic freezing index has a negative impact on the financial performance of listed electric power companies., which is further analysed and proved that a cryogenic freezing disaster will cause the regional breakdown of the power system. The operating cost ratio and the proportion of clean energy supply play a mediating effect on the correlation between the comprehensive climate risk index and the return on equity of companies. To increase electric power companies' ability to adapt to climate change, climate change risks should be integrated into the risk management framework, and the company's financial performance can be improved by optimizing the energy mix and constructing safe lines. The government can promote the transformation of electric power companies by launching green financial tools.

极端天气事件的发生频率、强度和持续时间严重影响了人类的生活和生产。电力部门是经济活动的基础,也是适应和减缓气候变化的核心参与者。因此,在气候变化背景下,电力部门应对不同的气候变化风险,提高对气候变化的适应能力,对国民经济的稳定运行至关重要。本文以中国上市电力公司为样本,分析了气候变化风险对电力系统供配电双方财务绩效的影响。实证结果表明,气候变化风险与电力上市公司财务绩效之间存在显著的正相关关系。降雨指数和干旱指数对电力上市公司财务业绩有正向影响。深冷冻结指数对电力上市公司财务业绩有负面影响。,进一步分析并证明了低温冻结灾害会造成电力系统的局部瘫痪。运营成本比和清洁能源供应比例对综合气候风险指数与企业净资产收益率之间的相关性起中介作用。为了提高电力公司适应气候变化的能力,应将气候变化风险纳入风险管理框架,并通过优化能源结构和建设安全线路来提高公司的财务绩效。政府可以通过推出绿色金融工具来促进电力公司的转型。

The Cotabato River Basin, located on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines, holds paramount importance for local communities and the national economy. However, over the past few decades, the region has been severely affected by the consequences of climate change, such as flooding and drought, along with long-standing socio-political conflicts that threaten livelihood security. This article analyzes the interplay between livelihood security, climate fragility, and state fragility to foster a more meaningful understanding of the impacts arising from historical fragilities and conflicts. The study findings reveal five significant effects of these fragilities on security: persistent flooding, changes in land use, river siltation, drought impact, and uncertainties stemming from violent conflicts. Through a detailed analysis, the article elucidates how the frequent exposure to these events has compelled communities to adapt by perceiving threats to their livelihoods as uncontrollable, thereby normalizing fragilities as an inherent aspect of everyday life. The study underscores the importance of temporal awareness and cultural understanding to comprehend the complexities of fragilities and conflicts. Integrating such awareness and experience makes refining approaches to strengthen livelihoods and mitigate community vulnerabilities possible.

哥打巴托河流域位于菲律宾棉兰老岛,对当地社区和国民经济至关重要。然而,在过去几十年里,该地区受到气候变化后果的严重影响,如洪水和干旱,以及威胁生计安全的长期社会政治冲突。本文分析了生计安全、气候脆弱性和国家脆弱性之间的相互作用,以促进对历史脆弱性和冲突产生的影响的更有意义的理解。研究结果揭示了这些脆弱性对安全的五个重要影响:持续的洪水、土地利用的变化、河流淤积、干旱影响以及暴力冲突带来的不确定性。通过详细的分析,文章阐明了频繁接触这些事件是如何迫使社区适应的,因为他们认为对生计的威胁是无法控制的,从而将脆弱性正常化为日常生活的固有方面。这项研究强调了时间意识和文化理解对理解脆弱性和冲突的复杂性的重要性。将这种认识和经验结合起来,就有可能完善加强生计和减轻社区脆弱性的方法。

Rising air temperatures are the main reason for the expected reduction in land suitability for coffee cultivation under climate change in Central America. One of the reasons farmers use shade trees is to create a cooler microclimate in coffee plantations located in warming areas; therefore, adjusting the shade levels could alleviate future high temperatures. Even though data on expected climatic changes are available, no studies have addressed the cooling potential of shading in coffee production systems. In this study, we use regional climate information (RCP 4.5) and a simple shade model to explore the potential of shading as an adaptation practice in the coffee areas in Central America. A model was developed to estimate the required shade levels for Coffea arabica L. based on mean air temperature. Modeled and observed shade data were compared. Results indicate that compared to 2000, an overall increment of 23 ± 18% of shading would be required to alleviate the warming conditions by 2050. The shading will be more beneficial to coffee areas at medium and high altitudes than to areas at low ones. Also, the number of coffee areas that require dense shade levels (shading > 60%) may double by 2050. This would lead to a boost in tree biomass (carbon content) but also increase the competition for the coffee plants and consequently affect coffee yields. Trade-offs between adaptation, mitigation, and productivity objectives are expected in the coffee areas in the future.

气温上升是中美洲气候变化下预计咖啡种植土地适宜性降低的主要原因。农民使用遮荫树的原因之一是为了在气候变暖地区的咖啡种植园创造一个凉爽的小气候;因此,调整遮荫度可以缓解未来的高温。尽管有关于预期气候变化的数据,但没有研究涉及咖啡生产系统中遮光的冷却潜力。在这项研究中,我们使用区域气候信息(RCP 4.5)和一个简单的遮荫模型来探索遮荫作为中美洲咖啡区适应实践的潜力。根据平均气温建立了一个模型来估计小粒咖啡所需的遮荫水平。将建模的阴影数据和观测到的阴影数据进行比较。结果表明,与2000年相比,到2050年,需要增加23±18%的遮光量才能缓解气候变暖的情况。遮荫对中海拔和高海拔的咖啡区比低海拔地区更有利。此外,到2050年,需要密集遮荫(遮荫>60%)的咖啡区数量可能会翻一番。这将提高树木的生物量(碳含量),但也会增加对咖啡植物的竞争,从而影响咖啡产量。预计未来咖啡领域将在适应、缓解和生产力目标之间进行权衡。

Climate-related disasters are increasing in many parts of the world, yet investment in disaster risk reduction (DRR) remains insufficient to manage these risks. This is despite growing recognition that DRR interventions can reduce potential impacts from disasters as well as deliver broader economic, ecological, and social co-benefits. Focusing on the net benefits of DRR, beyond avoiding losses and damages, is considered as an important strategy to strengthen the case for DRR as part of a sustainable development by academics and international organizations alike. However, there is very limited evidence of on-the-ground accounting of these “multiple resilience dividends” by those who act to reduce disaster risk at the local level. Using an innovative analytical approach, we investigate the knowledge gaps and challenges associated with considering multiple resilience dividends in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of DRR interventions at the community level for the example of flood risk. We use a newly developed framework to analyze empirical survey data on community-level DRR interventions as well as five in-depth case studies from Vietnam, Nepal, Indonesia, Afghanistan, and the United Kingdom. The analysis reveals a disconnect between available planning tools and the evidence of materialized multiple resilience dividends, which is a key obstacle to successfully apply the concept at the community level. Structured consideration of multiple resilience dividends from the planning to the monitoring and evaluation stages is required to secure local buy-in and to ensure that these dividends materialize as intended.

世界许多地区与气候相关的灾害正在增加,但对减少灾害风险的投资仍然不足以管理这些风险。尽管人们越来越认识到DRR干预措施可以减少灾害的潜在影响,并带来更广泛的经济、生态和社会共同利益,但情况依然如此。学术界和国际组织都认为,关注DRR的净收益,而不是避免损失和损害,是加强DRR作为可持续发展一部分的重要战略。然而,很少有证据表明,那些在地方一级采取行动降低灾害风险的人对这些“多重恢复力红利”进行了实地核算。我们使用创新的分析方法,以洪水风险为例,调查了在社区层面规划、实施和评估DRR干预措施时考虑多种恢复力红利的知识差距和挑战。我们使用一个新开发的框架来分析社区层面DRR干预的实证调查数据,以及来自越南、尼泊尔、印度尼西亚、阿富汗和英国的五个深入案例研究。该分析揭示了可用的规划工具与实现多重弹性红利的证据之间的脱节,这是在社区层面成功应用这一概念的关键障碍。从规划到监测和评估阶段,需要对多种弹性红利进行结构化考虑,以确保当地的认可,并确保这些红利按预期实现。

Extreme weather events have cost lives and financial losses across the United States. Moreover, they are expected to increase in frequency, and this will exacerbate their impact on vulnerable sectors such as agriculture. But how farmers could adapt to extreme weather events by adopting different conservation practices has received slight attention in the literature. This study examines how farmers' perceptions of drought and flooding influence their decisions to implement conservation practices in their conventional crop fields. Out of the 350 farmer responses we received, fewer than half indicated a likelihood to adopt no-tillage/reduced tillage (43%), cover crops (40%), crop diversification (37%), and integrated crop-livestock grazing (29%). Using this data and a multivariate probit modeling framework, we show that farmers’ decisions can be partly explained by their perception of drought but not by their perception of flooding. Specifically, the perceived number of drought years significantly increases the likelihood of adopting no-tillage/reduced tillage and diversified cropping in the future. However, the number of drought years is not significantly associated with the use of cover crops and integrated crop-livestock grazing. These results suggest that the effects of extreme weather events on adoption of conservation practices as adaptive measures vary across different practices. Therefore, adaptation policies that make use of conservation practices must be tailored to farmers’ needs and priorities to be effective.

极端天气事件在美国各地造成了生命和经济损失。此外,它们的频率预计还会增加,这将加剧它们对农业等弱势部门的影响。但是,农民如何通过采取不同的保护措施来适应极端天气事件,在文献中很少受到关注。这项研究考察了农民对干旱和洪水的看法如何影响他们在传统农田中实施保护措施的决定。在我们收到的350份农民回复中,只有不到一半的人表示有可能采用免耕/少耕(43%)、覆盖作物(40%)、作物多样化(37%)和作物-牲畜综合放牧(29%)。使用这些数据和多变量probit建模框架,我们表明,农民的决策可以部分通过他们对干旱的感知来解释,但不能通过他们对洪水的感知来理解。具体而言,干旱年数显著增加了未来采用免耕/少耕和多样化种植的可能性。然而,干旱年数与覆盖作物和作物-牲畜综合放牧的使用没有显著关联。这些结果表明,极端天气事件对采用保护措施作为适应性措施的影响因不同做法而异。因此,利用保护做法的适应政策必须适应农民的需求和优先事项,才能发挥效力。

Therefore, adaptation policies that make use of conservation practices must be tailored to farmers’ needs and priorities to be effective.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54226,"journal":{"name":"Climate Risk Management","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 100494"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49779595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building community resilience requires centering equity in resilience planning processes. Tools and resources for strengthening community resilience need to address equity in both their content and the process for using them. This is especially so for communities living in proximity to contaminated lands that face compounding hazards (i.e., environmental, disaster, and climate-related); legacies of institutional or structural disenfranchisement; challenges with inclusion of minority populations in planning; and constraints on doing data-intensive planning and management in under-resourced and underserved jurisdictions. A research team from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is developing a new resource, the Equitable Resilience Builder, which will serve communities with intersecting social and environmental vulnerabilities, in pursuit of creating resilience plans and developing the intra-community connections to implement them. This article details how the team used human-centered design to develop the Equitable Resilience Builder. Our objective in doing so is to share the evolution of equity in the project and demonstrate key inflection points in the discovery, synthesis, and ideation phases of human-centered design. The team was able to expand their understanding of what it means to undertake resilience planning in an equitable way during engagements with state, local, tribal agencies, foundations, non-governmental organizations, and academia and through participatory workshops. It developed design principles for how the tool might use storytelling and other techniques to address emotions and trauma, ensure local voices are heard, and encourage relationship building. This article offers lessons learned for others seeking to address resilience and equity in climate risk management, particularly when working with communities in proximity to contaminated lands.

建立社区复原力需要在复原力规划过程中以公平为中心。加强社区复原力的工具和资源需要在其内容和使用过程中解决公平性问题。对于居住在污染土地附近的社区尤其如此,这些社区面临着复杂的危害(即环境、灾害和气候相关的危害);制度性或结构性剥夺公民权的遗留问题;将少数民族人口纳入规划方面的挑战;以及在资源不足和服务不足的司法管辖区进行数据密集型规划和管理的限制。美国环境保护署的一个研究小组正在开发一种新的资源,即“公平的复原力构建者”,该资源将为社会和环境脆弱性并存的社区提供服务,旨在制定复原力计划,并建立社区内部的联系来实施这些计划。本文详细介绍了该团队如何使用以人为本的设计来开发公平弹性构建器。我们这样做的目的是分享项目公平性的演变,并展示以人为本的设计在发现、综合和构思阶段的关键拐点。在与州、地方、部落机构、基金会、非政府组织和学术界的合作中,以及通过参与性研讨会,该小组能够扩大他们对以公平方式开展复原力规划意味着什么的理解。它制定了设计原则,说明该工具如何使用讲故事和其他技术来处理情绪和创伤,确保听到当地的声音,并鼓励建立关系。本文为寻求解决气候风险管理中的复原力和公平性问题的其他人提供了经验教训,特别是在与受污染土地附近的社区合作时。

High discount rates by private actors undermine climate change adaptation policies 私人行为体的高贴现率破坏了气候变化适应政策

Adaptation requires investing now to avoid future damages, and thus adaptation is shaped by discount rates. Although the role of social discount rates in climate policy design has been well documented, the role of private discount rates has been ignored. We illustrate the importance of private discount rates in shaping adaptation investments by empirically demonstrating how household discount rates are negatively correlated with investments in water storage tanks in Central America. High private discount rates are common throughout the world and are a barrier to private adaptation investments. To overcome this barrier, adaptation policies targeted at private actors should ensure that benefits accrue sooner or that costs are lowered or accrue later. Governments or private companies could also offer long-term loans that exploit the differential between the discount rate of the lender and the private borrower.

适应需要现在投资以避免未来的损害,因此适应是由贴现率决定的。虽然社会贴现率在气候政策设计中的作用已被充分证明,但私人贴现率的作用却被忽视了。我们通过实证证明家庭贴现率如何与中美洲储水箱投资负相关,说明了私人贴现率在形成适应投资中的重要性。私人部门的高贴现率在世界各地都很普遍,这是私人适应投资的障碍。为了克服这一障碍,针对私人行为体的适应政策应确保尽早获得效益,或降低或推迟成本。政府或私人公司也可以提供长期贷款,利用贷款人和私人借款人之间的贴现率差异。
