7th international EbA Community of Practice Workshop – presentations and recordings

In November 2022, the BMU-IKI funded and GIZ-implemented Global Project Mainstreaming EbA welcomed a group of 60 Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) practitioners to the 7th international EbA Community of Practice Workshop. This document contains links to all presentations, recordings, as well as additional resources such as a photo collection, an updated publication overview and the new EbA project movie.
Projection Guidance of South Vietnam Drought

For the current Cai Be/Cai Lon sluice gate location in southern Vietnam, an ensemble of global climate models can provide some future guidance of precipitation change from present conditions, which can help inform future expectations of meteorological drought. Using the RSI CCHIP tool, ensemble average projections of future precipitation are provided using an ensemble of all AR5 assessment GCMs under the high emission scenario (RCP8.5).
Climate Fact Sheet for Upper Tempisque Basin, Costa Rica

The Regional Climate Factsheet provides brief and concise information on possible future climate developments for the Upper Tempisque basin in the 21st century.
Brazil: Diagnosis of the occurrence of phenomena causing meteorological damages and losses in Infrastructures in the State of Santa Catarina

This research aims to support the development of climate services by conducting a survey and analysis of meteorological phenomena that have the potential to cause damage and losses to infrastructures in Brazil, specifically transmission lines of Eletrosul and the Port of Itajaí.
Brazil: Development of Climate Services for Solar and Wind Resources for various scales and possible Impacts of Climate Change

This study assesses developments of solar and wind in different climate change scenarios to inform Brazil’s national energy sector’s adaptation to climate change.
Brazil: Development of Climate Services for Risk Analysis in infrastructure of transmission lines of Santa Catarina — Focus on Lightning

The following threefold report is the result of a research project to study the occurrence of atmospheric discharges (lightnings) in Santa Catarina. It includes identifying seasonal patterns, trends, and mechanisms that may favor these events, in order to project future occurrences in a changing climate.
Metodología para la Evaluación de Riesgos Climáticos en la Infraestructura Pública de Costa Rica: MERCI-CR

La metodología para la evaluación de riesgos climáticos en la infraestructura pública de Costa Rica (MERCI-CR) presenta un instrumento para analysar los riesgos y preparar la protección de la infraestructura y la continuidad de los servicios públicos vitales ante eventos climáticos.
Brazil: Development of Climate Services for Risk Analysis in infrastructure of transmission lines of Santa Catarina — Focus on Wind

A fivefold report about the development of climate services to be used for climate risk analyses of transmission lines in Santa Catarina in Brazil. The focus here lies on developing climate information with regards to extreme wind events.
Assessing the adaptation relevance of soil protection and rehabilitation

Soil protection and rehabilitation (SPR) technologies frequently provide several advantages, including benefits for mitigation and adaptation, while also lining up with farmers’ goals to boost and secure their yields. This guide and Excel-based tool provide a participatory method of identifying relevant climate risks and assessing how well SPR solutions address such risks as well as their local feasibility.
Climate Risk Communication Guideline

This guideline offers insights and lessons learned on the preparation and implementation of climate risk communication approaches. It was developed by the Community of Practice Climate Risk to provide directions on the preparation and implementation of communication approaches and the dissemination of results to different users and target groups for the improved uptake of the results of climate risk and vulnerability assessments.
