response. The book also addresses the human and policy dimensions of climate
change, exploring the dynamic nature of human vulnerability and resilience, the
crucial role of science-policy interfacing, and the integration of systemic risk into
disaster risk reduction strategies. By presenting both theoretical frameworks and
practical solutions, this volume is an invaluable resource for researchers,
practitioners, and policymakers dedicated to managing and adapting to the risks
posed by climate change. With its comprehensive coverage of climate change
impacts and risk management strategies, this book is designed to enhance our
