Climate change impacts can negatively affect tourism demand and, subsequently, local economies by disrupting access and altering physical conditions, including those from adaptation recovery efforts. Research is needed that helps destinations become more climate ready, studies of decision factors influence trip-taking behaviors. This paper presents findings a discrete choice experiment to determine how economic changes could visitation behaviors vulnerable coastal destination, the Outer...
Abstract We present the first systematic, global stocktake of academic literature on human adaptation. screen 48,316 documents and identify 1,682 articles that empirical research documenting efforts to reduce risk from climate change associated hazards. Coding synthesizing this highlights overall extent adaptation across regions sectors is low. Adaptations are largely local incremental rather than transformative. Behavioural adjustments by individuals households more prevalent any other type...
Abstract Traditionally, ecosystem restoration has focussed on standard ecological indicators like water or habitat quality, species population abundance vegetation cover to determine success. However, there is growing interest in how might impact people and communities. For example, researchers have documented positive socio‐ecological links between human well‐being property value, natural hazard mitigation, recreation opportunity happiness. Furthermore, public health benefits from been...
If climate change mitigation and adaptation are a human right, institutional is needed that considers coastal ecosystem integrity as common pool resource. Increasing risks in zones necessitates adopting new frequently controversial zoning, planning, management practices, particularly insurance programmes reform or require bailouts. In the U.S., current policy frameworks employed by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) state-level authorities incentivize defensive strategies, especially...
The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI), designed to restore and protect the ecology of Laurentian Lakes, is one largest environmental funding programs in United States. Over 5,400 grants have been awarded last 11 years (2010–2020), representing over $3.5 billion federal spending. A publicly available database that contains a written description about each grant online. However, analysis cannot easily be performed given descriptions are only textual. Therefore, we applied modified...
Carbon-based payments for ecosystem services solely consider afforestation and reforestation to assess sequestration. However, political ecology researchers demonstrate that tropical forests are complex socioecological systems where humans institutions play an integral role in shaping landscapes. The current framing overlooks the net effect of traditional subsistence agriculturalists leaving behind low emission lifestyles, despite likelihood a significant increase per capita emissions over...
