How do we use them?SettlementsAquaculturesIndustrial zonesTourisms
What are their nature?Sandy or muddySteep or shallow

Climatic shocks & Development Stress
• Climatic and marine conditions– transformation of familiar seasonal conditions– increasingly unpredictable flood– increasing of red tide phenomena– increasing of erosion– Fragmentation and loss of habitat
• Rapid and unplanned growth– increasing of population (birth and migrate)– inadequate infrastructure– diminishing natural resources

CC is here or is coming?
More wet, less dryMore extreme, less moderated

Changes from climate changesWhat-If scenarios
Coastal and marine environment domain• Shorelines (shapes, profiles, and stabilities)• Riverine-estuarine-marine interactions (ebb, flood, salinity, and oxygen)• Oceanography (tide, current, and waves)• Seasonal phenomena (patterns, period, and intensity)• Marine and coastal ecology (locality, boundaries and functions)• Diversity of the nature (biology and ecology)• Distribution mechanisms (nutrients, food web, and pollutants)
Socioeconomic domain• Fisheries and aquaculture -- resources providers• Tourism• Settlement

Adaptive measures for climate changes
The 5 broad categories of adaptation measures:1. Prevent the loss -- adopt measures to reduce vulnerability to climate
change.2. Tolerate the loss -- do nothing to reduce vulnerability and absorb the
losses.3. Spread or share the loss -- do not reduce vulnerability, but rather
spread the burden of losses across different systems or populations.4. Change the activity -- stop activities that are not sustainable under
changed climate, and substitute with other activities.5. Change the location -- move the activity or system
Appropriacy, precautionary, and limitation

Some Considerations
• Space and time– Space management and plan ahead
• Living shoreline vs hard structures– Functional ecosystems– Cement or bamboos
• Complement vs substitues– Measures that are complementary to each others
• Budget constraints– No-cost (or low-cost) and phased approach

Institutional measures
• Mainstream into coastal policy– Select entry points and the champion
counterparts– Plans at national, sub-national, and local scales
• Two-track approach– Community awareness and contribution– Combining local level community-based
adaptation with national level
