Krishnan, S. (author), Aydin, N.Y. (author), Comes, M. (author)Climate change is one of the main drivers of uncertainty in urban planning, but only a few studies systematically address these uncertainties, especially in the long term. Urban resilience theory presents principles to manage uncertainty but largely focuses on individual urban systems rather than complex interdependent dynamics. Further, most...journal article 2023

Cardoso, Rafaela (author), Ramon-Tarragona, Anna (author), Lourenço, Sérgio (author), Mendes, João (author), Caruso, Marco (author), Jommi, C. (author)Monitoring structural behavior of earth structures during construction and in service is a common practice done for safety reasons, consolidation control and maintenance needs. Several are the techniques available for measuring displacements, water pressures and total stresses, not only in these geotechnical structures but also at their...book chapter 2023

Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Blom, A. (author), Sloff, C.J. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author)Human intervention makes river channels adjust their slope and bed surface grain size as they transition to a new equilibrium state in response to engineering measures. Climate change alters the river controls through hydrograph changes and sea level rise. We assess how channel response to climate change compares to channel response to human...journal article 2023

Nußholz, Julia (author), Çetin, Sultan (author), Eberhardt, Leonora (author), De Wolf, Catherine (author), Bocken, Nancy (author)The application of the circular economy (CE) in the building industry is critical for achieving the carbon reduction goals defined in the Paris Agreement and is increasingly promoted through European policies. In recent years, CE strategies have been applied and tested in numerous building projects in practice. However, insights into their...journal article 2023

van Oorschot, Janneke (author), Sprecher, B. (author), Rijken, Bart (author), Witteveen, Pieter (author), Blok, Merlijn (author), Schouten, Nico (author), van der Voet, Ester (author)Buildings are an important part of society's environmental impacts, both in the construction and in the use phase. As the energy performance of buildings improve, construction materials become more important as a cause of environmental impact. Less attention has been given to those materials. We explore, as an alternative for conventional...journal article 2023

Taylor, Zac (author)Reflecting on the limits of the sovereign-state centricity of mainstream contemporary climate action, Peter Taylor calls for new forms of regional geographical analysis and intervention. What might these aims and ambitions look and feel like for geographers? With this commentary, I take up Taylor's propositions through personal reflection on the...journal article 2023

Ribas, Francesca (author), Portos-Amill, Laura (author), Falqués, Albert (author), Arriaga, Jaime (author), Marcos, Marta (author), Ruessink, Gerben (author)Mean sea-level rise (MSLR) will induce shoreline recession, increasing the stress on coastal systems of high socio-economic and environmental values. Localized mega-nourishments are meant to alleviate erosion problems by diffusing alongshore over decades and thus feeding adjacent beaches. The 21-st century morphological evolution of the...journal article 2023

Assaduzzaman, Mohammad (author), Filatova, T. (author), Lovett, Jon C. (author), Coenen, Frans H.J.M. (author)Climate change effects are not uniform and have disproportionate impacts among different groups of people within communities. It is therefore important to understand the underlying issues of intersectionality for climate change adaptation and human well-being. This paper aims to measure human capabilities and freedom of choice by analyzing...journal article 2023

Mianabadi, Ameneh (author), Davary, Kamran (author), Mianabadi, Hojjat (author), Kolahi, Mahdi (author), Mostert, E. (author)Environmental changes can result in dramatic increases in human migration as households become unable to adapt to such changes. Addressing environmental migration is a complex puzzle that can become a wicked problem. Despite the growing literature on the nexus between environmental change and migration, the inextricable link between nature...journal article 2023

Zou, Tao (author), Niu, Xinbo (author), Ji, Xingda (author), Chen, X. (author), Tao, Longbin (author)In marine environment, floating photovoltaic (FPV) plants are subjected to wind, wave and current loadings. Waves are the primary source of fatigue damage for FPVs. The climate change may accumulatively affect the wave conditions, which may result in the overestimation or underestimation of fatigue damage. This paper aims to present a...journal article 2023

Herdt, T. (author), Muñoz Sanz, V. (author)This article analyzes the acceptance of climate policy measures in the Metropolitan Region of Amsterdam to understand how policy and planning interrelate with private and public interests. While legitimizing climate policy and measures, values can also cause conflict when operationalized locally. By analyzing value conflicts in public discourse,...journal article 2023

(author)This contribution presents an assessment at a regional (island) scale of the beach erosion due to storm events under Climate Change. The approach adopted to assess beach erosion at the island scale consisted of three modules. First, the location, dimensions and other attributes of the Cypriot beaches were recorded on the basis of widely...journal article 2023

(author)Stormwater is a vital resource and dynamic driver of terrestrial ecosystem processes. However, processes controlling interactions during and shortly after storms are often poorly seen and poorly sensed when direct observations are substituted with technological ones. We discuss how human observations complement technological ones and the...review 2023

Ricci, Diletta (author), Morganti, Michele (author)Urban vulnerability has many facets. Among these, urban texture and plot pattern, building massing and density, greatly affect the microclimate. Thence, redefining urban regeneration design criteria for climate neutrality is crucial, including environmental factors in the design process at different scales. In the light of climate change,...conference paper 2023
