Blanksby, J.R., Ashley, R., Gersonius, B. et al. (6 more authors) (2012) MARE toolbox and guidance for climate-proofing of responses and potential adaptations in Flood Risk Management Plans. Report.
Abstract
Policy makers and flood risk managers usually deal with uncertainties about current climate by defining acceptable standards, either based on likelihood or based on a broader risk-based approach (i.e. taking account of the likelihood as well as consequences). However, climate change introduces additional uncertainty. This is no longer simply something to be reduced through more scientific research, although this can help. It is with this kind of uncertainty that policy makers and flood risk managers struggle the most.
