Navigating Rising Tides: Coastal Adaptations in an Era of Climate Change is a paramount collection of scientific journal articles aimed at addressing the urgent need for adaptive strategies in coastal regions facing sea-level rise and related climate threats. This compilation begins with an introductory overview of global adaptation measures, followed by in-depth case studies and analyses from diverse regions such as the U.S. Atlantic coast, Indo-Pacific islands, and Mediterranean, showcasing the universal and multifaceted challenges of coastal resilience. Articles within the collection further explore the variability of extreme sea levels, the severe socioeconomic impacts on urban infrastructures, and localized threats to cities like Basrah and Tampa. The studies underscore the critical need for innovative, localized, and globally informed responses integrating GIS spatial tools, municipal planning, and adaptation investments against the backdrop of climate projections. Featuring comparative analyses between heavily impacted cities like Venice and Miami, this collection highlights shared vulnerabilities and adaptive strategies, urging both local and global cooperative efforts. This book is an essential resource for policymakers, urban planners, scientists, and engaged citizens committed to securing the future of coastal communities amidst the rising tides.
