Este documento contiene los resultados de la evaluación de impacto físico del turismo en el contexto del proyecto PESETA. El turismo es una industria de miles de millones de euros, altamente dependiente de las condiciones climáticas.
This study on ‘The economics of climate change adaptation in EU coastal areas’ provides insights in the state-of-play and the financial dimension of the actions undertaken to prepare Europe’s coastal zones, including the Outermost regions, to the effects of climate change.
EL COMITÉ DE LAS REGIONES - destaca la necesidad de que se reconozca a los entes locales y regionales como actores fundamentales en la lucha contra los efectos nocivos del cambio climático, dado que están preparados para asumir la corresponsabilidad y ya están adoptando medidas para adaptar su
The scientific evidence is now overwhelming that climate change is a serious global threat which requires an urgent global response, and that climate change is driven by human activity.
The paper describes the initial efforts in a project whose objective is to obtain a 40-year hindcast of wind, sea level and wave climatology for European waters.
AFRICAN DUST: Huge quantities of mineral dust are carried from sources in North Africa to the western Atlantic Ocean every year. Satellite images often show immense dust clouds emerging from the coast of West Africa.
Natural hazards, due to climate change, are particularly damaging in urban areas because of interdependencies of their networks. So, urban resilience has to face up to climate risks. The most impacting phenomenon is the urban heat island (UHI) effect.
El proyecto MyOcean, incluido dentro del Programa GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) y financiado por la UE tiene como objetivo establecer la capacitación a nivel pan-europeo de la monitorización y predicción en el campo de la oceanografía.
La actividad humana está provocando cambios medioambientales sin precedentes en los ecosistemas costeros y marinos.
Recent climate change has caused diverse ecological responses in plants and animals. However, relatively little is known about homeothermic animals’ ability to adapt to changing temperature regimes through changes in body size, in accordance with Bergmann’s rule.
