Buying Time or Building Futures? Conditions for Sustainable Climate Change Adaptation
Adaptation to climate change seems an agreed-upon necessity in 2025. However, questions of how, by whom, and for what purposes this adaptation should be pursued remain far from obvious, especially if it is to be planned and implemented in a sustainable manner. In our most recent Hamburg Climate Futures Outlook, we conduct an assessment of the plausibility conditions for sustainable climate change adaptation across the world, and identify a number…
Baseline Resilience
This study examines how monsoon adaptations shape baseline resilience to wind, using the Penghu Archipelago, Taiwan, as a case study. While much resilience research focuses on responses to extreme events, this study sheds light on the role of daily adaptations to the northeast winter monsoons. Through mapping and archival research, we analyze spatial and temporal perspectives to understand how local communities and the government address persiste…
Rather with than About - Reshaping Qualitative Empirical Research Methods in Times of Physical Distancing
Face-to-face participatory research and interaction is at the heart of empirical social research. The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting physical distance restrictions had a significant impact on qualitative research. Instantly, conventional qualitative social science methods had to be adapted to 'remote' and digital modes of interaction. The focus of this article is to analyze how and why video-mediated formats such as online conference tools a…

Expiry date of a disaster
Disasters are events often perceived to be confined in time and in space. In this paper we challenge this assumption by focusing on the memory of disaster as key aspect through which it is possible to go beyond the “there and then” of a disaster. By applying the concept of memory anchoring, we illustrate the importance of memory for its repercussions on the present “here and now” as well as on the future way of dealing with disasters. We apply th…
Emplaced climate imaginaries
More than just Sids
Small islands are often taken as poster children for climate change vulnerability, and their status as hotspots of climate change impacts has been widely acknowledged in the scientific literature. In many cases, however, individual studies as well as reviews and global assessments, generalise small islands as a whole-often with a strong focus on Small Island Developing States (SIDS)-and lack a thorough understanding of island specificity, relatio…
Competing knowledge systems and adaptability to sea‐level rise in The Bahamas
In times of climate change and global ecosystem degradation, Small Island Developing States ( SIDS ) are both showcases and indicators for global social‐ecological dynamics. Resilience is among the most prominent concepts to assess and improve communities’ capacity to adapt to environmental changes, described as adaptability. But how environmental pressures are perceived, and how this perception translates into action and specific behavioural pat…
Managing coastal risks at the Wadden Sea
Purpose The trilateral Wadden Sea Region (WSR), extending from Den Helder in the Netherlands, along the German North Sea coast, to Esbjerg in Denmark, constitutes a unique but vulnerable coastal landscape. Vulnerability to environmental and societal risks is expected to increase in coming decades with encompassing new challenges such as demographic changes and conflicting uses of space, both on land and at sea. Meeting these challenges will requi…
Governing coastal risks as a social process—Facilitating integrative risk management by enhanced multi-stakeholder collaboration
Coastal landscapes
Studies on the socio‐cultural dimensions of perceiving and framing landscapes represent a well‐established interdisciplinary field of research cutting across the disciplines of geography, anthropology and sociology. Most studies to date converge in the fact that they theoretically and methodologically revolve around textual and symbolic landscape approaches to investigate underlying social representations and practices permeating the physical lan…

Surprise and Uncertainty—Framing Regional Geohazards in the Theory of Complexity
The paper analyzes the concepts of uncertainty and surprise as key variables of a socio-ecological system’s behavior in the context of the theory of complexity. Experiences from the past have shown that living with uncertainty is part of our daily life and surprises are only surprising because our perspective of system trajectories is basically linear and non-dynamic. The future of humanity is dependent on the understanding of the system’s behavi…
Multiscale system dynamics of humans and nature in The Bahamas
Between hype and decline
Forschung zur Sozioökonomie des Küstenraums in Zeiten des Klimawandels
Zufall und Instabilität kennzeichnen das komplexe Mensch/Natur-System – um etwa Vorhersagen über die Entwicklung des Küstenraums treffen zu können, reichen Messwerte aus der Vergangenheit nicht aus. Das Institut für Küstenforschung des GKSS-Forschungszentrums in der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft hat eine Abteilung geschaffen, um die Sozioökonomie dieser dynamischen Systeme zu erforschen
Mensch/Natur-Interaktion im Anthropozän Potenziale der sozial-ökologischen Systemanalyse
Modelle können helfen, Mensch/Natur-Interaktionen besser zu verstehen. Bei der Jahrestagung der DGH 2008 haben Wissen schaftler(innen) verschiedener Disziplinen die Potenziale systemtheoretischen Denkens für die Lösung globaler Umweltprobleme diskutiert
Human/Nature Interaction in the Anthropocene Potential of Social-Ecological Systems Analysis
What are possible synergies between paradigms from the social and natural sciences? And between different strands of international research on social-ecological systems? The annual conference of the German Society for Human Ecology in Sommerhausen in May 2008 will look into these questions in detail
