Climate change adaptation refers to the process of making adjustments in the anticipated or existing effects of climate change. It is one of the strategies for responding to climate change in conjunction with mitigation. Adaptation actions can be transformative or incremental. The need for adaptation differs in different areas depending on the vulnerability and sensitivity to environmental influences. Adaptation actions are classified into three types including structural and physical adaptation, institutional adaptation, and social adaptation. It is particularly crucial in developing countries as they are the most sensitive to climate change and are facing the brunt of its consequences. This book contains some path-breaking studies on adaptation to climate change in developing countries. It picks up individual strategies and explains their need and contribution for mitigating climate change. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
