Climate Risk Assessment under Uncertainty: An Application to Main European Coastal Cities
Abadie, Luis María; Sainz de Murieta Zugadi, Elisa; Galarraga, Ibon (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016-12-16)This paper analyses the risk of extreme coastal events in major European coastal cities using a stochastic diffusion model that is calibrated with the worst case emission scenario from the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate ... -
Determining discount rates for the evaluation of natural assets in land-use planning: An application of the Equivalency Principle
Markanday, A.; Galarraga, I.; Chiabai, A.; Sainz de Murieta Zugadi, Elisa; Lliso, B. (Elsevier, 2019)One of the most pressing issues when making decisions over long-term environmental problems is deciding on an appropriate discount rate. This can be a highly technical discussion. While some argue in favour of market rates, ... -
The Costs of Sea-Level Rise: Coastal Adaptation Investments vs. Inaction in Iberian Coastal Cities
Abadie, Luis María; Sainz de Murieta Zugadi, Elisa; Galarraga Gallastegui, Ibon (MDPI, 2020-04-24)Iberian coastal cities are subject to significant risks in the next decades due to climate change-induced sea-level rise. These risks are quite uncertain depending on several factors. In this article, we estimate potential ... -
The Oyambre Coastal Terrace: a Detailed Sedimentary Record of the Last Interglacial Stage in Northern Iberia (Cantabrian Coast, Spain)
Sainz de Murieta Zugadi, Elisa; Cunha, Pedro P.; Cearreta Bilbao, Alejandro; Murray, Andrew S.; Buylaert, Jan-Pieter (Wiley, 2021-05-14)A detailed study is presented of a 15.3-m-thick Pleistocene coastal terrace located on the Cantabrian coast (northern Spain). Stratigraphic, sedimentological, topographic and micropalaeontological information is combined ... -
Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities
Abadie, Luis María; Galarraga, Ibon; Sainz de Murieta Zugadi, Elisa (Environmental Research Letters, 2017-01-17)A quantification of present and future mean annual losses due to extreme coastal events can be crucial for adequate decision making on adaptation to climate change in coastal areas around the globe. However, this approach ...
