Climate change adaptation will be discussed in the Second Nordic Conference on Climate Change Adaptation, in Helsinki 29-31 August 2012.
Sessions will cover – among others – local and national adaptation plans in Europe, climate portals and climate services, economic appraisal, urban planning, observed changes in the natural environment, future impacts on forests, water resources, agriculture and human welfare, and scenarios. About 170 oral and poster presentations together with 8 keynote presentations will provide a good synthesis of recent research as well as reporting achievements in implementing adaptation policies. The conference therefore offers attractions both for researchers and for public and private sector decision makers.
This is the 2nd Nordic International Conference on Adaptation to Climate Change, continuing the work started in Stockholm in 2010. As previously, the conference is being organised by climate change research networks funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers. SYKE and the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) are the local host organisations.
