  • Explaining Progress in Climate Adaptation Planning Across 156 U.S. Municipalities

    Linda Shi, Elaine Chu et al.ARTICLEJournal of the American Planning…2015

    Problem, research strategy, and findings: Cities are increasingly experiencing the effects of climate change and taking steps to adapt to current and future natural hazard risks. Research on these efforts has identified numerous barriers to climate adaptation planning, but has not yet systematically evaluated the relative importance of different constraints for a large number of diverse cities. We draw on responses from 156 U.S. cities that parti…
