Inhaltsangabe

This book presents and discusses a strategy which includes four approaches to dealing with the risk of sea-level rise and other water hazards. It also offers opportunities for cities to explore urban extensions such as marine estates, aquatic food production systems, new sea related industries, maritime transport developments, new oceanic tourist attractions, and the designation of additional coastal ecological zones. The urban interface between Sea and Cities generates, therefore, both burning issues and valuable opportunities and raises the question of whether it is possible to solve the former by exploiting the latter?

Prof. Paul Burton has a long-standing interest in the theory and practice of public policy-making, with a special interest in planning and urban policy. He is currently exploring the emergence of a national urban policy in Australia and the translation of urban policy ideas from elsewhere – such as the UK’s City Deals approach – to Australian settings. 

Dr. Edoardo Bertone is a Researcher with a civil engineering background and a current focus on data-driven modelling, Bayesian Network and System Dynamics modelling applied to the water resources management, water-energy nexus, environmental healthand climate change adaptation fields.
