It provides a detailed assessment of climate change based on published scientific work compiled by independent international experts from climate-related disciplines such as oceanography, atmospheric sciences, marine and terrestrial ecology, using a regional evaluation and review process similar to that of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of our changing climate, discussing a wide range of topics including past, current and future climate change, and climate-related changes in marine, terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems. It also explores the impact of climate change on socio-economic sectors such as fisheries, agriculture, coastal zone management, coastal protection, urban climate, recreation/tourism, offshore activities/energy, and air pollutionSummary: Introduction to the Assessment -- Past and Current Climate Change -- Past and Current Changes in the North Sea (and interface regions) -- Climate Change Projections -- Impacts of Current and Future Climate Change in Ecosystems -- Climate Impacts on Socio-economyPPN: PPN: 1658664094Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-EES | ZDB-2-SOB | ZDB-2-SXEE | ZDB-2-SEB
