Research on climate change adaptation has increased in number and significance since the 1970s. Yet, volume of information is now difficult to manage given its vast scope spread across journals, institutions, disciplines themes. While an increasing researchers have used systematic literature reviews analyse particular themes within this rapidly growing field research, there still missing overall analysis current state science evolution. This paper fills gap by providing a multifaceted...
Abstract Recent evidence shows that climate change is leading to irreversible and existential impacts on vulnerable communities countries across the globe. Among other effects, this has given rise public debate engagement around notions of crisis emergency. The Loss Damage (L&D) policy emphasized these aspects over last three decades. Yet, despite institutionalization through an article L&D by United Nations Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Paris Agreement, remained...
The idea of relocation as a transformative disaster risk reduction, climate adaptation, and development strategy follows the assumption that reduces vulnerability communities. Yet, it is unclear whose what kind reduced through relocation, which factors are important in determining “success” efforts strategies for development, change adaptation (CCA), reduction (DRR). Temporary short distance highly likely to achieve increased resilience by reducing exposure, but new area communities brings...
Many of the Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are known to be very vulnerable climate change impacts. This is particularly so where national economies highly dependent on tourism-related revenue. Yet, little adaptive capacities tourism providers in SIDS and how they respond variability change. research uses a case study Samoa, Pacific island nation, that beach already variety natural hazards. The examines capacity operators Samoa ways which Fa'asamoa (the Samoan way life) fundamental...
Disaster risk reduction (DRR) and emergency management (EM) efforts are integral to climate change adaptation (CCA). The integration of DRR with is globally recognized as a rational use resources benefiting both areas. There substantial literature on the topic, but little practice implementing such ground. This paper presents some these experiences at national agency levels in south-west Pacific outlines possible future directions support policy practice. Based perspectives practitioners...
Tourism is strongly interlinked with the natural and social environment, in particular destinations around Pacific. These environments are vulnerable to climate change which impacts on social–ecological system of destinations. Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) uses ecosystems manage risks change. However, a gap remains understanding how tourism sector can use EbA create destination-wide benefits. The destination framework presented here aims address this by focusing well-being risk reduction....
The field of climate justice has been growing in relevance since its conception 1997. This paper presents a comprehensive bibliometric and topic modelling analyses to examine the evolution trajectory literature. We analyse 1,683 publications covering period from 1997 2021, highlighting foundational works, influential authors, leading nations institutions, prevailing research topics within this field. employ Latent Dirichlet Allocation uncover latent trends literature providing crucial...
Indigenous knowledge (IK) is now recognized as being critical to the development of effective, equitable and meaningful strategies address socio-ecological crises. However efforts integrate IK Western science frequently encounter difficulties due different systems production underlying worldviews. New approaches are needed so that sustainability can progress on terms matter most for people involved. In this paper we discuss a case study from Aotearoa Zealand where an indigenous community in...
