“…This is where serious games which engender experiential learning in a 'safe space' and incentivise retention can help. Though still a growing topic of research, serious games have been demonstrated to be a successful mind shift instrument (Flood et al, 2018;Jansen et al, 2016). An aspect of this is understanding the reality of event likelihoods and that these will increase as sea levels rise.…”

Sea-level rise due to climate change is compounding coastal hazard risk and threatening coastal communities around the world, but the rate and extent of this varies and is deeply uncertain beyond mid-century. Dynamic adaptive pathways planning (DAPP) has emerged internationally and within New Zealand to enable flexible long-term adaptation despite this deep uncertainty, by identifying different risk management options which can be switched between over time (pathways) based on their performance in meeting objectives (in this context, to reduce coastal hazard risk). Critical to DAPP is the monitoring of signals (early warnings) and triggers (decision points) to activate a change in pathway before pre-agreed adaptation thresholds (failure to achieve objectives) are reached, thus ensuring timely and proactive adaptation. Given DAPP’s novelty however, knowledge about how to effectively design and implement a signal and trigger monitoring system (particularly for rising coastal risk in New Zealand) remains limited, with the most advanced cases of DAPP in New Zealand only just entering the monitoring design stages at the time of this research. This thesis addresses these knowledge gaps by discussing criteria of effectiveness for two aspects of monitoring: (1) signal and trigger design (with the criteria of relevance, measurability, timeliness and resolvability); and (2) monitoring system implementation (with the criteria of organisational implementability, sustainability and accountability). Using these criteria as a basis, this thesis identifies the challenges local councils in New Zealand are facing in designing signals and triggers, potential barriers to implementation of monitoring systems, and how those challenges/barriers may be addressed.
