“…The more commonly suggested lines of intervention (Becker et al 2013) are based on updating infrastructures, increasing their crest level (without any additional upgrading) or relocating (activities, terminals or even the complete harbour). Hard solutions (based on concrete or stones) will require a continuous updating at decadal scales since the rate of sea level rise will keep on growing worldwide and with an acceleration near the end of the selected projection horizon (by 2100).…”

“…Para ello son necesarias costosas campañas de campo que incluyen mediciones de radar o sísmicas, que dan como resultado superficies como la presentada en el citado proyecto Bedmap2 (Fretwell et al, 2013). Estas campañas son rentables si pensamos que algunos desarrollos de gran envergadura, como son los puertos comerciales o desarrollos urbanos costeros, basados en modelos climáticos de escasa resolución espacio-temporal -sin tener en cuenta cambios en el nivel del mar, la frecuencia de tempestades o la temperatura del océano-tendrán que reformarse en pocas décadas (Becker et al, 2013).…”

“…This is particularly true in densely populated urban areas that depend on complex and interconnected systems of infrastructure, commerce, and community life. Even further, as economies become increasingly dependent on global resources and markets, the impact of climate events in one region can have direct repercussions in countries around the world [18,20]. Current analytical frameworks should be expanded to include these impacts.…”
