N A T U R E I M P R O V E M E N T A R E A GREATER THAMES MARSHES Climate Adaptation Action Plan Workshop Outputs • Workshop Summary – 2pg summary document • Detailed Adaptation Action Plan – Covers all identified impacts of climate change – Including indirect impacts (although there are areas where we need wider consultation with external organisations) – Identifies gaps in our knowledge – Informs future projects • What else? – At workshop there was a call for a single message on climate change which we can all take away with us to help communicate issues A word on climate change “Warming of the global climate is now unequivocal” Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change AR5 Working Group I – September 2013 Expected Climate Change Impacts of a changing climate Impacts of a changing climate Developing climate adaptation • Things to consider: – – – – – Ongoing Action now Change Uncertainty Working with others Key Findings: Current Delivery • Current Delivery – Landscape-scale conservation principles have adaptation at core – Targeted management at core sites – Flood and coastal erosion risk management programmes (e.g. TE2100) – Maintenance and management of designated sites (SPAs, SSSIs, etc) Key Findings: Resource Management • Resource Management – Water – Changing rainfall patterns will have serious implications on conservation (wetlands) in medium to long term Key Findings: Dynamic Species • Dynamic Species Interactions – Shifting species envelopes – Changing seasonality and species interaction – Ecosystem impacts Key Findings: Sea Level Rise • Rising Sea Levels – Transforming the shape of the Estuary – need to maintain balance between saline and freshwater ecosystems – Impact on recreational access and enjoyment of the coast Key Findings: Indirect Impacts • Indirect Impacts – Early planning increases opportunities to deliver multiple objectives, including for biodiversity, into adaptation measures Workshop Outputs Where Next?
