Abstract

The study is to provide a Climate Change Risk Indicators (CCRI) framework for climate adaptation for seaports, to link research to policy-making process on such a demanding topic. This paper first provides a literature review with international bodies and technical bodies on climate change adaptation for seaports. Second, a Fuzzy Evidential Reasoning (FER) model is employed to evaluate the climate risks in seaports. Third, six seaports in United Kingdom (UK) are selected for examples to demonstrate the use of CCRI. Finally, a comparative analysis of Yangtze River Delta and the United Kingdom (UK) in climates and seaport industries is done to visualize the possibilities in implementing the frameworks.
