RESEARCH OVERVIEW
! Part A: Resource Coding ! Inventoried services provided by 89
nonprofit and boundary organizations ! Catalogued local or regionally relevant
climate adaptation resources ! Organized services and resources by
coding system
! Part B: Survey of Local Governments ! Focus: Understand resource use, need,
barriers, and visions of resilience ! +200 local government respondents ! Partnership with ICLEI, NLC, and USDN
! Part C: Convening of Service Providers and Local Practitioners ! May 2014

PART A: RESOURCE CODING
! 3,400 resources or services coded ! Codebook developed with local practitioners ! Coded by:
! Type of Resource ! Phase of Planning Process Resource Supports ! Climate Impact Resource Addresses ! Sector of Operation Resource Supports ! Geographical Area Served by Resource

BY RESOURCE TYPE
! Most abundant “types”: ! Fact Sheets ! Best Practice / Case Studies ! Scientific Reports / Data

By Phase of Planning Process
! Resources skewed to earlier phases of the adaptation planning process
! Fewer resources aimed at the implementation-related activity
![Page 7: Mapping and Convening Local and Regional Climate Service ...graham.umich.edu/media/files/6_26_Stults_mapping... · and Regional Climate Service Providers . 1.

By Sector
! Water is far and away the most common sector
! Sectors with the few resources identified include: engineering, solid waste, legal, agriculture, health, and vulnerable populations
! Nearly 40% of resources are not sector-specific
![Page 8: Mapping and Convening Local and Regional Climate Service ...graham.umich.edu/media/files/6_26_Stults_mapping... · and Regional Climate Service Providers . 1.

BY IMPACT
! Stormwater and flooding as well as sea level rise are the most common impacts addressed
! Few resources identified that focus on extreme heat and forest fires
! Nearly 55% of resources are not impact-specific
![Page 9: Mapping and Convening Local and Regional Climate Service ...graham.umich.edu/media/files/6_26_Stults_mapping... · and Regional Climate Service Providers . 1.

! Elected officials and staff identified political support as the most important motivator for action
! Least common motivators for action include funding, addressing inequalities, and gaining a competitive advantage
LOCAL MOTIVATIONS FOR ADAPTATION ACTION

WHAT’S BEING USED
! Most commonly used resources: ! Best practices /
case studies ! Local peers ! Scientific reports or
articles ! Fact Sheets
! Resources used infrequently: ! Software ! Social media ! Consulting firms

! Most desired format for resources was web, followed by detailed case studies/fact sheets and in person conferences or trainings
! Least desired formats include social media and blogs

HIGHLIGHTS ! Commonly used resources are often the most
abundant types of resources: ! Case studies, fact sheets, scientific reports/data sources
! Resources coded support earlier phases of the adaptation planning process; fewer at later phases of the planning process
! Few resources address a specific climate impact on a specific sector
! Lowest rate of usage for software, which also is not an abundant resource/service type
! A large percentage of the resources identified are “generic”, meaning they are not specific to a sector, climate impact, geographical area, or phase of the planning process
![Page 17: Mapping and Convening Local and Regional Climate Service ...graham.umich.edu/media/files/6_26_Stults_mapping... · and Regional Climate Service Providers . 1.

! Some identified needs are being filled by existing resources ! 77% of respondents indicated wanting information on how other
communities are implementing adaptation actions ! Second most coded resource type was case studies or best
practices
! Support for the early phases of adaptation action appears strong: not a significant barrier to action
