FUTURENET is a multi-partner, multi-disciplinary research project, investigating the development of a network resilience assessment methodology. It considers changes in climate in 2050 and assesses their impact on principal transportation modes (road, rail and air). The research projct aims at the creation of a generic methodology. The project was completed in April 2013.<br/> | FUTURENET is a multi-partner, multi-disciplinary research project, investigating the development of a network resilience assessment methodology.

The report calls for mainstreaming planning processes, projcet governance and decision-making in climate change and disaster risk reduction. According to the paper, specialized financial instruments should be developed and local capacity is to be expanded. | The white paper by ICLEI (Local Governments for Sustainability) proposes an adaption strategy for urban areas to climate change, focusing on financial requiements.

Transportation systems play a crucial role in responding to a region's pre-disaster evacuation and post-disaster recovery. THeir ability to perform under adverse conditions in times of disaster depends upon the resiliencey of their fixed and moveable assets as well as their operational procedures before, during and after the event. For New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina was a "game changer", sverely impacting the city's transportation systems. This case study assesses the resilience of individual transportation systems. | Transportation systems play a crucial role in responding to a region's pre-disaster evacuation and post-disaster recovery.

Key port infrastructure elements affected by climate change are identified. The deterioration mechanisms relevant to these structural components are investigated. A software tool quantifies the number of deterioration mechanisms which affect port structures, according to six different climate futures. This should enal port engineers to ascertain the changes needed in maintenance of port infrastructure over a 70-year time horizon. | Key port infrastructure elements affected by climate change are identified.

| Resilient transportation systems in a post-disaster environment. A case study of opportunities realized and missed in the greater new orleans region | Gulf Coast Research Center for Evacuation and Transportation Resiliency/ 2010 | Post-disaster, report |
Transportation systems play a crucial role in responding to a region's pre-disaster evacuation and post-disaster recovery. THeir ability to perform under adverse conditions in times of disaster depends upon the resiliencey of their fixed and moveable assets as well as their operational procedures before, during and after the event. For New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina was a "game changer", sverely impacting the city's transportation systems. This case study assesses the resilience of individual transportation systems. |

| Adaptation to climate change in the transport sector | Klaus Eisenack,; Rebecca Stecker,; Diana Reckien,; Esther Hoffmann/ 2011 | Transport, financing, climate change, |
Extensiveliterature review elaborates on adaptation to climate change in the transport sector. It i suggested to need a broad diversity of actors,incluing transportation service providers, public and private sector actors and private households. Most adaptations require technical, institutional and knowledge inputs. Especially knowledge inputs have to be be developed. |
