Climate’s Long-term Impacts on Urban Infrastructures and Services: The Case of Metro Boston

P. Kirshen, Matthias Ruth and W. Anderson

Chapter 7 in Regional Climate Change and Variability, 2006 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In its development of methodologies and their applications to individual regions, this book presents a rich set of insights and a set of guides for investment and policymaking. Each of the six studies focuses on a finer geographic scale than is customary in integrated assessment research. They introduce innovations for impact analysis and contribute to the knowledge of localized experiences of climate change – how it affects a variety of sectors, how different stakeholders perceive its implications and adapt to it, and how decision support systems can promote dialogues between researchers, stakeholders and policymakers.
