The overall objective of the project is to generate new knowledge about current and future climate adaptation and handling of natural hazard events in remote settlements in the Arctic fostering sustainability and resilience.
The ultimate goal of PHATE is to provide comprehensive risk assessments and adaptation tools that account for the large-scale oceanic processes and the ecological connectivity of the Arctic region.
The aim is to co-produce new knowledge that supports the identification and evaluation of adaptation solutions that will mitigate the impacts and risks linked with the dual effects of sea ice loss and human use pressures on the Arctic marine environment.
The projects main objective is to better understand the consequences of warming winters on Arctic lakes, to identify adaptation strategies to ensure access to fishing sites.
This project aims to answer questions such as what types of non-economic losses and damages can be expected in the Arctic and what types of responses to non-economic losses and damages do Arctic communities prefer.
NordForsk aunches a joint Nordic-Baltic call for proposals on sustainable futures of forest. The intention is to provide funding for 7 projects under this call.
