Product details
The book "Adaptations of Coastal Cities to Global Warming, Sea Level Rise, Climate Change and Endemic Hazards" offers a comprehensive analysis of the challenges faced by densely populated coastal cities and their port facilities due to global warming, climate change, and endemic hazards. It addresses the identification of threats as well as solutions and management strategies to mitigate these risks. Topics include protecting freshwater aquifers from saltwater intrusion, constructing barriers against rising sea levels, and managing flooding from storm surges. The book also examines the impacts of extreme weather events such as droughts and heavy rainfall on urban centers and their drainage areas. Additionally, it discusses vulnerabilities to other physical and health hazards associated with the geological and geographical location of the cities. It provides valuable information for students of environmental sciences, as well as for social scientists, government planners, and interested laypersons.
