Compendium on methods and tools to evaluate impacts of, and vulnerability and adaptation to, climate change
Year of publication 2005
This compendium provides a synthesis of key information about available frameworks and tools for assessing climate-change vulnerability and adaptation options, special features of each framework or tool, and information on obtaining relevant documentation, training or publications. It has been designed to be used as a reference document to identify available frameworks and tools for assessing vulnerability and adaptation. This is not a manual describing how to implement each tool, but rather a survey of possible tools that can be applied to a broad spectrum of situations and a map to point users to additional sources of information. The compendium is intended for use by either assessment managers or technical researchers; it does not require extensive technical knowledge of modeling or specific decision-making techniques. Some of the frameworks and tools described in the compendium may require particular expertise, and these requirements are explicitly described.
