Conceptual Frameworks for Assessing Climate Change Effects on Urban
Urban areas are amongst the most adversely affected regions by current and future climate change effects. One issue when it comes to measuring, for example, impacts, vulnerabilities, and resilience in preparation of adaptation action is the abundance of conceptual frameworks and associated definitions. Frequently, those definitions contradict each other and shift over time.

Developing green infrastructure design guidelines for urban climate
Introduction. One of the major challenges in urban design is advancing strategies for urban climate adaptation. Climate change impacts Footnote 1 require re-thinking urban design, in particular the design of green urban spaces and elements, such as urban parks, forests, gardens, and street trees. These spaces and elements are generally referred to as urban green infrastructure (UGI) Footnote 2 ...
