Strategies to adapt to an uncertain climate change (2008, background): “the one that is the most insensitive to future climate conditions, instead of looking for the ‘‘best’’ choice under one scenario (Lempert et al., 2006; Lempert and Collins, 2007).”
Adapting to Climate Change: Climate prediction: a limit to adaptation? (2009, neutral): “Such approaches generally fall under the heading of robust decisionmaking (Lempert et al., 2006 ).”
Renewables, nuclear, or fossil fuels? Scenarios for Great Britain’s power system considering costs, emissions and energy security (2015, methodology): “Examples of the latter approach are the Modeling to Generate Alternatives method [12] or the scenario discovery methods developed at RAND [13].”
A systematic review of dynamics in climate risk and vulnerability assessments (2017, background): “…e.g. producing a range of alternative future pathways, instead of one most plausible scenario, and urges to plan adaptation action against a range of alternatives to ensure robust decision-making (Adger et al 2009, Dessai et al 2009, Lempert et al 2006, Offermans et al 2009, Haasnoot et al 2012).”
