Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In das Open-Access-Buch Die Flutkatastrophe 2021 Vom Wiederaufbau zur Klimaresilienz gehen Ergebnisse und Erfahrungen aus dem vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung geförderten Verbundprojekt KAHR (KlimaAnpassung, Hochwasser und Resilienz) ein. I…nsgesamt waren 13 Verbundpartner aus Forschung und Praxis sowie zahlreichen verschiedenen Disziplinen an den wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten beteiligt. Das Buch behandelt die weitreichenden Auswirkungen der Hochwasserkatastrophe im Juli 2021 in Deutschland, insbesondere in den Regionen Nordrhein-Westfalen und Rheinland-Pfalz. Es beleuchtet die physischen, sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Folgen des Ereignisses, das zu massiven Schäden an Infrastruktur, Wohngebäuden und kritischen Infrastrukturen führte. Die Autorinnen und Autoren analysieren die Herausforderungen im Rahmen des (Wieder-)Aufbaus und betonen die Notwendigkeit eines integrierten Hochwasserrisikomanagements, das technische, natürliche und soziale Aspekte berücksichtigt.Ein zentrales Anliegen des Buches ist es, aus den Erfahrungen der Katastrophe zu lernen und resilientere Strukturen für zukünftige Hochwasserereignisse zu schaffen. Dazu werden verschiedene Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung der einzugsgebietsweiten natürlichen und technischen Retention sowie Infrastrukturanpassung, privater Vorsorge und Anpassungen in der Raumplanung vorgestellt.Darüber hinaus wird die Rolle der Wissenschaft hervorgehoben, um evidenzbasierte Entscheidungen zu treffen und den Wissenstransfer zwischen Forschung und Praxis zu fördern. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit gilt auch den sozialen Aspekten des Wiederaufbaus in benachteiligten Quartieren, wo die Vulnerabilität der Bevölkerung durch soziale Ungleichheiten verstärkt wird.Das Buch bietet konkrete Empfehlungen für politische Entscheidungsträger:innen, Planer:innen und Praktiker:innen im Bereich des Hochwassermanagements sowie für betroffene Bürger:innen. Es schließt mit einem Ausblick auf zukünftige Herausforderungen im Kontext des Klimawandels und plädiert für eine stärkere Integration von Risikokommunikation in alle Phasen des Hochwassermanagements von der Vorsorge über die Bewältigung bis hin zur Nachsorge.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Der Klimawandel betrifft in vielfältiger Weise die Nutzungen, Funktionen und Strukturen von Räumen und führt deshalb zu zusätzlichen Anforderungen an die räumliche Planung. Der vorliegende Band beschreibt einerseits die wesentlichen… Wirkungszusammenhänge zwischen den erwarteten Klimaänderungen und ihren raumbedeutsamen Folgen. Daraus werden andererseits Handlungsmöglichkeiten der Raumplanung im Hinblick auf eine gesellschaftliche Anpassung abgeleitet, wobei auch Synergien und Konflikte mit den Aufgaben zum Klimaschutz Berücksichtigung finden.Im Einzelnen wird zunächst der wissenschaftliche Kenntnisstand zum Klimawandel skizziert, indem die prinzipielle Funktionsweise des Klimasystems und mögliche globale und regionale Klimaänderungen erläutert werden. Im Weiteren geht es um die Bedeutung und Erfassung der gesellschaftlichen Vulnerabilität sowie um ihren potenziellen Beitrag zur Anpassung. Unter Einbeziehung der Klimaänderungen und der Vulnerabilität wird anschließend verdeutlicht, wie sich die Risiken und Chancen für die Gesellschaft ermitteln lassen und in welchen Handlungsfeldern und Gebieten sie in Deutschland auftreten können. Dabei wird auch die Raumbedeutsamkeit dieser Risiken und teilweise der Chancen verdeutlicht.Auf der Basis der Wirkungszusammenhänge werden die raumplanerischen Instrumente zur Anpassung an den Klimawandel dargestellt. Dabei gehen die Autorinnen und Autoren zunächst auf den rechtlichen Rahmen und die Handlungsoptionen des Klimaschutzes ein, um eine Konsistenz zwischen Klimaanpassung und Klimaschutz zu gewährleisten. Danach folgt eine Analyse der rechtlichen Vorgaben sowie der Eignung formeller und informeller Instrumente der Raumplanung hinsichtlich der Anpassung an die Folgen des Klimawandels. Dies umfasst auch die Potenziale der strategischen Regionalplanung.Zum Schluss werden Empfehlungen für die Raumforschung und die Praxis der räumlichen Planung abgeleitet, insbesondere zur Weiterentwicklung des vorhandenen Instrumentariums. Das Spektrum der Vorschläge reicht von methodischen Standards über Monitoringsysteme bis hin zur Erweiterung von Prüfinstrumenten und zur Stärkung von strategischen Planungsprozessen. 244 pp. Deutsch.
