Adapting to the Impacts of Climate Change is part of series to determine how and when to adapt to climate change in light of limited scientific knowledge and resources. Adaptation to climate change is a relatively new field for U.S. citizens who have only recently become fully aware of the implications of changes in the Earth system that will result in having more heat trapped in the oceans and the atmosphere. Advising the nation on how to prepare for the impacts of climate change is especially challenging in a country with so much geographic and economic diversity, as well as so many private- and public- sector decision makers. Adapting to the Impacts of Climate Change examines adaptation at various levels of government and explores lack of resources, engagement, adaptation research, and limited capacity to improve these deficiencies in the face of competing policy priorities. It presents several recommendations and calls for an increase in federal directives, resources, and coordination.
