Successful adaptation to climate change across scales (2005, background): “Municipalities, cities, firms and markets are all adapting within the bounds of available technologies, regulatory systems and knowledge of future climate risks (e.g. Lindseth, 2004; Næss et al., 2005).”
Does Adaptive Management of Natural Resources Enhance Resilience to Climate Change (2004, background): “…systems, although the appropriate institutional scale for adaptation is often that of municipal or local resource management institutions, the interaction between institutions across scales is constrained by the power relationships among these bodies (O'Brien et al. 2004, Naess et al. 2005).”
Climate change, multiple stressors and human vulnerability: a systematic review (2016, background): “It has been suggested that multi-scale governance could remove some barriers between separate scales, but challenges of coordinating actions between different scales remain (Næss et al. 2005).”
Climate-Resilient Pathways: Adaptation, Mitigation, and Sustainable Development (2014, background): “In the case of developed countries, adaptation initiatives have often been seen as a lower priority because it is perceived that there is abundant adaptive capacity (Naess et al., 2005).”
