AstrA Introduction to the project Klaipeda, 18 May 2006 Philipp Schmidt-Thomé Geological Survey of Finland, GTK

ASTRA- Motivation New development in climate policy towards adaptation (e.g. Finnish national adaptation strategy): New research on climate change impacts (e.g. Arctic Climate Impact Assessment, FINADAPT) New possibilities and acute need to downscale global climate change: what are the regional and local impacts? What can be done? Recent extreme climate events in the BSR Encouraging results of the SEAREG and ESPON projects

Sea level Change Affecting the Spatial Development in the Baltic Sea Region example 1

Karl-Johans’ (K-J) and flooding lockgate (AK) Lake Mälaren Stockholm Inner city Baltic Sea Slussen example 2

Example: Case study Pärnu / Estonia Winter storm and storm surge January 2005 example 3

ESPON Hazards project European Spatial Planning Observation Network

ESPON / INTERACT example

Project objectives – general 1.Assess and illustrate impacts of climate change in the BSR 2.Raise awareness of climate change impacts and adaptation issues 3.Link climate change adaptation to spatial planning mechanisms which can be implemented by the partners in the BSR 4.Recommend suitable adaptation policies and strategies at BSR, national, regional and local levels

Expected outcome 1.Methods and tools for spatial planning taking into account long term socio-economic and environmental climate change effects. 2.Presentation of climate impact research results for the BSR and strategies to adapt to the consequences of climate change effects. 3.Development of pan-Baltic adaptation strategy and providing country specific national strategies. 4. Climate Impact studies for each case study city or region (Cities of Gdansk, Raahe, Loviisa, Espoo, Klaipeda, Tallinn, Pirkanmaa Region, Pärnu Maa, Estonian archipelago, Curonian spit, Oder river basin, Salaca river basin).

Case studies Finland: Espoo, Kokkola, Raahe Poland: Vistula Delta, Gdansk, Oder river Basin Estonia: Estonia Archipelago, Pärnu Maa,City of Tallinn Lithuania: Curonian Spit Latvia: Salaca river basin Germany: Oder river Basin
