M ULTI - HAZARD INFRASTRUCTURE R ISK ASSESSMENT FOR CLIMATE A DAPTATION

由于自然灾害和快速的气候变化，欧洲的关键基础设施（CI）面临失败的风险，这可能导致重大的物理和经济损失。现有的气候风险分析方法并没有针对CI的复杂性进行调整：它们没有适当地考虑到系统的相互依赖性，同时也仍然包含关键的数据缺口。公共当局迫切需要工具来确定风险易发地区，并制定负担得起的适应战略，以增强CI抵御能力。气候适应多灾种基础设施风险评估（MIRACA）项目的使命是促进并授权在整个欧洲实施气候适应措施。MIRACA联盟将开发一个基于证据的决策支持工具包，包括(i)适应战略的技术和经济评估指南，（ii）技术决策支持工作台和（iii）在线交互式查看器。这些评估将基于一个多灾种气候风险评估框架，该框架采用先进的新数据获取方法，这将填补在气候变化脆弱性和成本方面的知识空白。将开发新的模式能力，以充分评估气候适应型基础设施系统对人和企业的好处。我们将通过五个用例来展示、验证和促进MIRACA研究和创新的应用。它们涵盖了各种地点、基础设施类型和自然灾害，并将使公共当局和CI管理人员能够测试适应解决方案的有效性，并确定强有力的适应战略。为了推动变革，我们的方法将通过开放获取的数据集、模型代码和在线交互式可视化提供。该工具包将在整个欧洲实施，特别是在目前对未来气候变化准备不足且仍然面临数据短缺的地区和社区

Europe’s critical infrastructure (CI) is at risk of failure due to natural hazards and rapid climate change, which can lead to major physical and economic damages. Existing methods for climate risk analysis are not tailored to the complexities of CI: they do not properly account for systems interdependencies, while also still containing key data gaps. Public authorities urgently need tools to pinpoint the risk-prone areas and to develop affordable adaptation strategies to enhance CI resilience. The mission of the Multi-hazard Infrastructure Risk Assessment for Climate Adaptation (MIRACA) project is to catalyse and empower the implementation of adaptation measures for CI throughout Europe. The MIRACA Consortium will develop an evidence-based decision-support toolkit, consisting of (i) a guidance on technical and economic appraisal of adaptation strategies, (ii) a technical decision-support workbench and (iii) an online interactive viewer. These will be based on a multi-hazard climate risk assessment framework that employs advanced new methods of data acquisition, which will fill critical gaps in knowledge of the vulnerability and costs of CI. New model capabilities will be developed to fully appraise the benefits for people and businesses of climate-resilient infrastructure systems. We will demonstrate, validate, and promote the uptake of MIRACA’s research and innovation through five use cases. They cover a variety of locations, infrastructure types and natural hazards, and will allow public authorities and CI managers to test the effectiveness of adaptation solutions and to identify robust adaptation strategies. To propel transformative change, our methodologies will be made available through open-access datasets, model codes and online interactive visualisations. The toolkit will be implemented across Europe, most notably in regions and communities that are currently not well-prepared against future climate change and still confronted with data scarcity
