How to Identify MITIGATION Potentials and ADAPTION Requirements of Transport System? Approach to Facilitate Consideration of CLIMATE CHANGE in the Transport Sector T. Schäfer/2013 Mitigation, Adaptation, Transport, Climate Change Within the scope of the Sustainable Hyderabad research project, local impacts of climate change on the urban transport infrastructure are identified to ensure appropriate adaptation and mitigation plans. Secondly, as urban infrastructure contributes to GHG-emissions, fossil-fuel consumption is to be reduced through technical improvements. Thus, a methodology is developed to design an energy-efficient and overall sustainable transport system (Mitigation Planning). Read more
Assessing Public Transportation Vulnerability to Sea Level Rise: A Case Study Application M. Oswald and C. Treat/2013 Public Transport, Climate Change The climate change-caused sea level rise threatens transportation infrastructure. The report identifies vulnerable facilities and develops solutions to adapt planning practices. The focus lies on the Transit Indundation Modeling Method (TIMM) to railway and bus networks in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Read more
Structural resilience of core port infrastructure in a changing climate RMIT University/2013 Climate Change, Resilience, Sea Ports

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 over a 70-year time horizon.

Assessing Transport Network Security in the Face of Climate Change FUTURENET Team/ Jan 2012 Transport, Climate change, Network security

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 project aims at the creation of a generic methodology. The project was completed in April 2013.
