Description :
The AA. look at the relationship between the physical change impacts and the socioeconomic implications. They utilise both a GDP-at-risk and an economic cost-benefit approach, in combination with biophysical analysis, to model the impacts of sea level rise along the East Anglian coastline of eastern England. For most predictions the protect strategy is economically justifiable on a region-wide basis.
