It is explained with the example of the state of environment indicator 'LUCCA 4—Urban Areas at Risk of Flooding', how SEA as a decision-aiding instrument can contribute to the prevention of conflicts with policy for adaptation to climate change. The method begins with the determination of impact factors for SEA. In the presented study, the physical impact factors of land consumption, land use change, and directed flooding were recognised. A core problem during the selection of indicators for land uses for the adaptation to climate change (here: LUCCA) and the derivation of assessment thresholds was a lack of region-wide policy objectives for the protection of land and resources. Therefore, in a second step, regional environmental orientation objectives were derived from national and EU environmental policy. A standard method for the selection of LUCCA indicators and the derivation of assessment thresholds for conflict analysis is described. Three classes of conflict classification for regional plan designations on the individual site are proposed. It is recommended that future adaptation measures of regional land use planning should be designations of specific land uses as priority areas for urban areas prone to flood risk.}, language = {en} } @misc{StockDownesHuettl, author = {Stock, Oliver and Downes, Nigel K. and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Bestimmung und Modellierung des Einflusses organischer Substanz auf das Verfestigungsverhalten von Geschiebemergel im Wasserspannungsbereich 100-107 hPa}, series = {Mitteilungen der Deutschen Bodenkundlichen Gesellschaft : Bd. 110}, journal = {Mitteilungen der Deutschen Bodenkundlichen Gesellschaft : Bd. 110}, pages = {137 -- 238}, language = {de} } @incollection{StorchDownes, author = {Storch, Harry and Downes, Nigel K.}, title = {Urban Environment: An Overview of Results}, series = {Sustainable Ho Chi Minh City: Climate Policies for Emerging Mega Cities}, booktitle = {Sustainable Ho Chi Minh City: Climate Policies for Emerging Mega Cities}, editor = {Katzschner, Antje and Waibel, Michael and Schwede, Dirk and Katzschner, Lutz and Schmidt, Michael and Storch, Harry}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham [u.a.]}, isbn = {978-3-319-04614-3}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-04615-0_3}, pages = {41 -- 49}, abstract = {This chapter provides a brief introduction into the thematic research results of the action field "Urban Environment" of the project.

This contribution illuminates the way adaptation to climate change is tackled in spatial planning strategies. The possible impacts of climate change on mega-urban regions in South-East Asia are highlighting that spatial design and urban environmental planning are a promising tool in adapting to climate change, because its integral responses are capable in dealing with uncertainties. Dealing with adaptation to climate change in the context of emerging Asian megacities requires a shift in policy options towards more proactive response strategies. While urban development trends in HCMC are addressing both mitigation needs and the rationale of adaptation to the effects of climate change, the main focus of combating climate change impacts in the mega-urban region of HCMC has to be the practical implementation of adaptation measures.

These risks occur, often not due to a lack of risk awareness or weak planning instruments, but seem to be an accepted consequence of maintaining current economic success and social progress. Flood risk protection and implementation of costly mitigation measures are often shifted to a future development cycle, where implementation is not seen to constrain the economic goals. Asian cities located in deltaic settings such as Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) in Vietnam, exhibit higher exposure levels to flood risk primary as a result of their location, their low elevation and if located in tropical regions, the significant annual variations in climatic and weather extremes they incur, so that a compelling need for dedicated site specific risk assessment and urban planning arises. Disasters like the recent flood in Bangkok in 2011 have shown that this development strategy cannot be justified any longer, especially in the times of a changing climate. Associated economic losses and social implications are simply too high. Our results are an outcome of a 5 year research project in HCMC funded by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research, focused on developing adaptation options to climate risks that could then be subsequently implemented into the existing land-use planning framework. Based on the development of core indicators describing future urban structural changes in relation to the changing patterns of risk exposures, spatially explicit planning recommendations were compiled in close cooperation with the responsible city authorities.

For highly dynamic regions, this has often led to an overestimation of climate extremes as a driver of risk. Our impact assessment study for Ho Chi Minh City highlights, that the influence of non-climatic stressors - like urbanisation as the spatial manifestation of socio-economic processes is still widely under acknowledged. We argue a scenario-based approach is needed to understand the interrelationship between urban growth, urban land use planning and hydrometeorological hazards and to provide local planning authorities with the muchneeded insights into the drivers of risk. The location of residential areas, industrial parks, critical infrastructure and facilities are in themselves important spatial indicators to assess the vulnerability of urban communities to climate-related hazards. Ho Chi Minh City presented as an archetypical mega-urban example, where spatial planning for adapted urban land uses will be instrumental in addressing climate challenges. Research findings for the city demonstrate that through adapted land use planning, climate-related vulnerability parameters can be modified to reduce current and future urban risks. Yet planning alone is simply not enough. Within its multi-stakeholder environment borne out of conflicting interests, land use planning requires more than ever science-based information to formulate spatially explicit adaptation measures to climate change.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StorchDownesKatzschneretal., author = {Storch, Harry and Downes, Nigel K. and Katzschner, Lutz and Nguyen, Xuan Thinh}, title = {Building Resilience to Climate Change Through Adaptive Land Use Planning in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StorchDownesRujner, author = {Storch, Harry and Downes, Nigel K. and Rujner, Hendrik}, title = {A scenario-based approach to assessing the exposure and flood risk of Ho Chi Minh City's urban development strategy intimes of climate change}, series = {Innovations in sharing environmental observations and information, EnviroInfo Ispra 2011, proceedings of the 25th International Conference EnviroInfo, October 5-7, 2011}, booktitle = {Innovations in sharing environmental observations and information, EnviroInfo Ispra 2011, proceedings of the 25th International Conference EnviroInfo, October 5-7, 2011}, editor = {Pillmann, Werner and Schade, Sven and Smits, Paul}, publisher = {Shaker}, address = {Aachen}, isbn = {978-3-8440-0451-9}, pages = {270 -- 279}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Downes, author = {Downes, Nigel K.}, title = {A Spatial Urban Environmental Indicator Framework for Ho Chi Minh City's Adaptation Response to Climate Change}, language = {en} } @incollection{StorchDownesMoon, author = {Storch, Harry and Downes, Nigel K. and Moon, Ki Duk}, title = {Climate Change and the Resilience of Megacities in South-East-Asia.
