Decision-makers face a particular challenge in planning for climate adaptation. The complexity of climate change's likely impacts, such as increased flooding, has widened the scope of information necessary to take action. This is particularly the case in valuable low-lying coastal regions, which host many competing interests, and where there is a growing need to draw from varied fields in the risk-based management of flooding. The rising scrutiny over science's ability to match expectations of policy actors has called for the integration of stakeholder and scientific knowledge domains. Focusing on the Broads — the United Kingdom's largest protected wetland — this study looked to assess future flood risk and consider potential adaptation responses in a collaborative approach. Interviews and surveys with local stakeholders accompanied the development of a hydraulic model in an iterative participatory design, centred on a scientist-stakeholder workshop. Knowledge and perspectives were shared on processes driving risk in the Broads, as well as on the implications of adaptation measures, allowing for their prioritisation. The research outcomes highlight not only the challenges that scientist-stakeholder integrated assessments of future flood risk face, but also their potential to lead to the production of useful information for decision-making.

“我们不能自己做！”——整合利益相关者和未来洪水风险的科学知识，为沿海地区的气候变化适应规划提供信息

决策者在规划气候适应方面面临着特殊的挑战。气候变化可能影响的复杂性，例如洪水增加，扩大了采取行动所需的信息范围。在有价值的低洼沿海地区尤其如此，这些地区拥有许多相互竞争的利益，并且越来越需要从基于风险的洪水管理的各个领域中汲取经验。对科学满足政策参与者期望的能力的日益审查要求利益相关者和科学知识领域的整合。这项研究以英国最大的受保护湿地布罗德斯为重点，旨在评估未来的洪水风险，并以协作方式考虑潜在的适应反应。与当地利益相关者的访谈和调查伴随着以科学家利益相关者研讨会为中心的迭代参与式设计中的水力模型的开发。分享了知识和观点，讨论了 Broads 中驱动风险的过程，以及适应措施的影响，从而确定了它们的优先顺序。研究成果不仅突出了科学家-利益相关者对未来洪水风险的综合评估所面临的挑战，而且还突出了它们为决策提供有用信息的潜力。允许他们优先考虑。研究成果不仅突出了科学家-利益相关者对未来洪水风险的综合评估所面临的挑战，而且还突出了它们为决策提供有用信息的潜力。允许他们优先考虑。研究成果不仅突出了科学家与利益相关者对未来洪水风险进行综合评估所面临的挑战，而且还突出了它们为决策提供有用信息的潜力。
