CBD Climate Change Adaptation Database
Hintergrund und Ziele
The climate change adaptation database from the Convention on Biodiversity (CBD) provides an excellent overview of relevant studies in the following main areas:
- Identification of vulnerable ecosystems and biodiversity (vulnerability studies)
- Estimation of risks and effects (studies on hazards for species diversity and resources to estimate hazards)
- Identification and evaluation of adaptation options (adaptation option studies)
- Implementation and monitoring of adaptation activities (case study and monitoring resources)
All studies focus on species diversity. The database can be browsed by countries, regions, hazards or effects.
The objective of the CBD adaptation database is to provide a web-based tool for integrating species diversity into adaptation, combining information and resources from a wide variety of relevant partners. This will support signatory states in integrating climate effects and adaptation measures into their implementation of the Convention on Biodiversity.
