Description

Different tools have already or are in the processes of incorporating applications for the analysis of the effects of climate change on relevant natures values. A promising development in the frame of the MSP4BIO is a prototype for the use of analog-based climate velocity for climate adaptation planning withing the Tools4MSP geoplatform.
