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.
