[Abstract Submission Extended] Research topic on ‘Climate Services for Adaptation to Sea-Level Rise’ in Frontiers in Marine Science

The abstract submission deadline for the research topic on ‘Climate Services for Adaptation to Sea-Level Rise’ in Frontiers in Marine Science, has been extended to 15 June 2020. The research topic is coordinated by the WCRP Grand Challenge on Regional Sea Level Change and Coastal Impacts, aiming to gather research articles addressing new developments in the area of climate services for coastal adaptation. This includes case studies addressing at least one of the following aspects:

  • Assessment of the current status of coastal climate services for adaptation to sea-level rise
  • Identification and mapping of users and stakeholders (e.g., critical infrastructures or settlements, insurance, land use planning, adaptation finance)
  • Identification and analysis of needs for observations, modelling, expertise, training and education
  • Approaches to translate sea-level science to operations
  • Representation, propagation or communication of uncertainties
  • Frameworks for climate services supporting adaptation to sea-level rise
