Scenarios of Climate Gentrification in Vancouver British Columbia

NERC: James Carruthers: NE/ s007512 /1城市需要适应气候变化以防止极端影响。然而，实施适应措施的方式可能会产生意想不到的后果，因为它们增加了周围土地的价值，并且可能会针对目前价格低廉的地区。因此，这些措施可能会将脆弱的人们转移到适应措施较少的地区，从而更容易受到气候变化的影响，这一过程被称为气候高档化。这是一个研究不足的话题，就总风险而言，气候高档化的驱动因素和影响尚不清楚。该项目将调查这些过程，并利用社会经济和气候数据，制定气候高档化在未来如何发展的方案。这些情景将更好地了解脆弱性在未来可能如何变化，并将为气候影响研究提供信息。

NERC: James Carruthers: NE/S007512/1Cities need to adapt to climate change in order to prevent extreme impacts. However, the way in which adaptation measures are put in place may have unintended consequences since they increase the value of land around them and may be targeted in currently inexpensive areas. Therefore, these measures could displace vulnerable people into areas which have fewer adaptation measures and are therefore more exposed to climate change, a process known as climate gentrification. This is an under-researched topic and the drivers and impacts of climate gentrification in terms of aggregate risk are unclear. This project will investigate these processes and develop scenarios of how climate gentrification could evolve in the future, using socio-economic and climate data. These scenarios will provide a better understanding of how vulnerabilities may change in the future and will inform climate impact studies.
