The principal aim of this DPhil is to develop and apply transferable system methodologies to future-proof socio-physical infrastructure networks for sustainability and climate-resilience.This will be tailored to the particular context of Small Island Developing States (SIDS), addressing the literature gaps.Contributing to these aims, the thesis is structured around four research questions arising from the main literature gaps:1. How can the impact of climate risk on socio-economic and physical networks of national interdependent infrastructure be visualized in data-scarce environments?2. How can a criticality metric be developed that quantitatively assesses the importance of national interdependent infrastructure assets for sustainable development and resilience?3. How can a quantified, socio-physical infrastructure modelling framework be devised that incorporates short-term risk into national capacity infrastructure planning?4. How can decision-makers in SIDS plan adaptively to improve the social, economic and environmental vulnerability of infrastructure networks?"

本博士论文的主要目的是开发和应用可转移的系统方法，以适应未来的社会物理基础设施网络的可持续性和气候弹性。这将是针对小岛屿发展中国家（SIDS）的特殊情况，解决文献空白。为实现这些目标，论文围绕四个主要文献空白产生的研究问题进行结构化：1.如何在数据稀缺的环境中可视化气候风险对国家相互依存基础设施的社会经济和物理网络的影响？2.如何制定一个关键度指标，以定量评估国家相互依存的基础设施资产对可持续发展和复原力的重要性？3.如何设计一个将短期风险纳入国家能力基础设施规划的量化的社会-物质基础设施建模框架？4.小岛屿发展中国家的决策者如何进行适应性规划，以改善基础设施网络在社会、经济和环境方面的脆弱性？"
