Type of assessment: Comprehensive impact and risk assessment
Details: Combines the analysis of exposed infrastructure to climate change and disaster risk
Format of assessment: Web tool
Estimated costs for conducting: Low
Estimated duration of assessment: No information
To be carried out by whom: Multiple actors
Details: Coastal managers, governmental authorities, researchers
Institutional scale of use: National
Assesment to be used by which target audience: Multiple actors
Details: State level decision makers and private sector
Output: Risk map
Region of origin: Europe
Developed by which sector: Science
Applied in practice: Yes
Geographic coverage in analysis: Europe
Potential geographic coverage: Web-tool just applicable in several regions of the UK. Location specific data is needed as input
Sectors covered: Energy sector
Details: Nuclear Power Plants
Method used: Quantitative model
Description of methodology: The tool incorporates a combination of observational data and modelling data on which the mapping is based on. The data is then also combined in a ROA framework to evaluate the cost- benefit ratio of implementing a new coastal management approach (adaptation options).
Risk framework used: No explicit use of risk framework
Risk components incorporated: Hazard, exposure
Hazards and impacts considered in the assessment: Sea level rise, Storm surge
Source of required data: Secondary (available data is used)
Details: Data is incorporated in the tool
Temporal scale: Forward looking
Participatory elements: No
Consideration of interconnectedness and -dependencies of risks: Partly
Adressing uncertainty: Yes
Scope of assessment: Identification of risks, assessment of impacts
Economic/Non-Economic losses incorporated: Economic
Applicability for entire risk spectrum (from extreme weather events to slow onset processes): Yes
Recommendations for Adaptation measures included in Climate Risk Assessment: No
Applied by whom: Brown, J.M. et al.
