气候变化的影响在城市地区的表现将有所不同，这取决于每个住区的个别特点和背景。城镇和小城市的气候适应规划研究是一个相对较少的研究领域，到目前为止还没有一个标准的类型学来描述沿海城镇的特征。类型学可以让利益攸关方了解沿海城镇或小城市目前和未来可能面临的物理危害；确定可能对当地人口以及定居点的经济、文化和环境资产产生的影响；以及确定规划、发展和实施适应战略的任何障碍或机会。本文介绍了一种包括34个参数的类型学，这些参数涵盖了物理、经济、环境和社会特征。在本期特刊中使用了这种分类方法，以获得关于特刊的所有22个案例研究的信息。今后的工作将集中于进一步发展类型学和分析所收集的数据，以便系统地了解沿海城镇和小城市适应领域中仍然存在的一些数据差距，并使今后的研究能够侧重于最需要的方面。
The impacts of climate change will manifest differently in urban areas depending upon the individual characteristics and contexts of each settlement. The study of climate adaptation planning for towns and small cities is a relatively under-researched field, there has thus far not been a standard typology for characterising towns and cities located at the coast. A typology can inform stakeholders about the physical hazards a coastal town or small city may be exposed currently and in the future; identify the impact that may have to the local population and the economic, cultural, and environmental assets in the settlement; and identify any barriers or opportunities to plan, develop, and implement adaptation strategies. A typology is presented here that includes 34 parameters that cover physical, economic, environmental and social characteristics. This typology has been used within this Special Issue to obtain information about all 22 case studies of the Special Issue. Future work will concentrate on developing the typology further and analysing the data collected to provide a systematic understanding of some of the data gaps that still exist within the field of adaptation in coastal towns and small cities and allow future research to focus on the aspects that are most needed.
