Examples of adaptation<\/p><\/div>\n

The DECCMA WP6 partners have been recording examples of adaptation that are in practice across our study sites. These examples, from literature and observation, are being collated into Adaptation Inventories for each area – a database of current adaptation practices that are being utilised to combat climate change in deltas.<\/p>\n

For a sneak peak at some of the types of adaptation that have been recorded, see these illustrated examples:
\n– Mahanadi Delta, India<\/a>
\n– Volta Delta, Ghana<\/a>
\n– Ganges Brahamputra Meghna Delta, Bangladesh<\/a>
\n– Indian Bengal Delta, India<\/a><\/p>\n

The full Adaptation Inventories will be completed later in 2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
