The Adaptation Options Library is a searchable database of all kinds of adaptation measures to address climate risks. The performance of these measures has been evaluated through an extensive review of scientific literature, with references corresponding to each measure indicated as relevant. Search filters allow to find and compare measures, with effectiveness and cost efficiency among the criteria available for comparison. Additionally selected measures can be exported into a csv format. The benefits of using this libarary are:
To benchmark adaptation measures depending on their cost-efficiency and effectiveness To better understand different types of measures.
This library can be used by:
– Researchers and stakeholders working on adaptation pathway designs
– Muncipalities to support Covenant of Mayors reporting
