This will enable the implementation of just and cost-effective adaptation measures, including the strengthening of adaptive capacities where most needed. To reach this objective DISCC-AT will follow an inter- and transdisciplinary approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, embedded in a broad stakeholder process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We seek to answer the following <strong>research questions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What are the vulnerabilities and therein particularly the adaptation capacities for different societal groups with respect to flood and heat related health risk?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How are socio-economic constraints limiting adaptation capacities of private households?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How can the public sector increase adaptation capacities where most needed?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Who bears the welfare costs of climate change-induced flood and health impacts in Austria and who benefits from public adaptation?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is there a risk for public maladaptation from an equity perspective?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What are ways forward for mainstreaming just adaptation in the existing transfer\/social security\/public insurance systems and in new policies?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To answer the stated research questions, <strong>an inter- and transdisciplinary approach and the integration of qualitative and quantitative methods is required<\/strong>. We thus follow the state-of-the art approach of integrating \u201cbottom-up\u201d with \u201ctop-down\u201d models. Particularly we establish a modelling chain, that is embedded in a broad stakeholder process. We will soft link a flood risk model and health impact analyses with an economy-wide multi-sectoral multi-household model and will create scenarios until 2080. These models are informed, calibrated and parameterized by qualitative insights. The workflow of DISCC-AT is structured into seven interacting work packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/11\/grafik-2-1024x726.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40\" width=\"597\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/11\/grafik-2-1024x726.png 1024w, https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/11\/grafik-2-300x213.png 300w, https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/11\/grafik-2-768x545.png 768w, https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/11\/grafik-2.png 1087w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 597px) 100vw, 597px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assessing the DIStributional effects of Climate Change impacts and adaptation in AusTria, for just, targeted and efficient adaptation The objective of DISCC-AT is to inform decision makers in Austria about group-specific social vulnerabilities to key climate risks &#8211; flood and<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":297,"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions\/297"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wegcwp.uni-graz.at\/discc-at\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
