University of Edinburgh

Principle Investigator:

Prof Simon Tett

CO Investigator(s):

Joseph Hagg, Marc J. Metzger

Industry Partners:

Transport Scotland, Scottish Water, SGN, SEPA, Inverclyde Council, National Centre for Resilience, Climate Ready Clyde, Adaptation Scotland/SNIFFER

Hazards

Cascade events, Coastal Erosion, Coastal Flooding, Drought, High impact low probability event, High temp risks, Inland flooding, Low temp risks, Multi-hazard combinations, Sea level rise, Storms and gales wind

The aim of this innovation project is to develop a scenario-based table top game based on simulated weather and climate, in order to improve the understanding of climate change impact on infrastructures and their key interdependences. This will allow the infrastructure owners and Inverclyde to plan adaptation strategies particularly around multiple hazards and cascading infrastructure failure.
