TY - JOUR A1 - Han, Sungju A1 - Kuhlicke, Christian T1 - Barriers and drivers for mainstreaming nature-based solutions for flood risks BT - the case of South Korea JF - International journal of disaster risk science N2 - Nature-based solutions (NBS) are seen as a promising adaptation measure that sustainably deals with diverse societal challenges, while simultaneously delivering multiple benefits. Nature-based solutions have been highlighted as a resilient and sustainable means of mitigating floods and other hazards globally. This study examined diverging conceptualizations of NBS, as well as the attitudinal (for example, emotions and beliefs) and contextual (for example, legal and political aspects) barriers and drivers of NBS for flood risks in South Korea. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 11 experts and focused on the topic of flood risk measures and NBS case studies. The analysis found 11 barriers and five drivers in the attitudinal domain, and 13 barriers and two drivers in the contextual domain. Most experts see direct monetary benefits as an important attitudinal factor for the public. Meanwhile, the cost-effectiveness of NBS and their capacity to cope with flood risks were deemed influential factors that could lead decision makers to opt for NBS. Among the contextual factors, insufficient systems to integrate NBS in practice and the ideologicalization of NBS policy were found to be peculiar barriers, which hinder consistent realization of initiatives and a long-term national plan for NBS. Understanding the barriers and drivers related to the mainstreaming of NBS is critical if we are to make the most of such solutions for society and nature. It is also essential that we have a shared definition, expectation, and vision of NBS.

T1 - The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat as an orchestrator in global climate policymaking JF - International review of administrative sciences : an international journal of comparative public administration N2 - Scholars have recently devoted increasing attention to the role and function of international bureaucracies in global policymaking. Some of them contend that international public officials have gained significant political influence in various policy fields. Compared to other international bureaucracies, the political leeway of the Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has been considered rather limited. Due to the specific problem structure of the policy domain of climate change, national governments endowed this intergovernmental treaty secretariat with a relatively narrow mandate. However, this article argues that in the past few years, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat has gradually loosened its straitjacket and expanded its original spectrum of activity by engaging different sub-national and non-state actors into a policy dialogue using facilitative orchestration as a mode of governance. The present article explores the recent evolution of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat and investigates the way in which it initiates, guides, broadens and strengthens sub-national and non-state climate actions to achieve progress in the international climate negotiations.
Points for practitioners
The Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has lately adopted new roles and functions in global climate policymaking. While previously seen as a rather technocratic body that, first and foremost, serves national governments, the Climate Secretariat increasingly interacts with sub-national governments, civil society organizations and private companies to push the global response to climate change forward. We contend that the Climate Secretariat can contribute to global climate policymaking by coordinating and steering the initiatives of non-nation-state actors towards coherence and good practice.

In a globally connected economy, damages can cause remote perturbations and cascading consequences-a ripple effect along supply chains. Here we show an economic ripple resonance that amplifies losses when consecutive or overlapping weather extremes and their repercussions interact. This amounts to an average amplification of 21% for climate-induced heat stress, river floods, and tropical cyclones. Modeling the temporal evolution of 1.8 million trade relations between >7000 regional economic sectors, we find that the regional responses to future extremes are strongly heterogeneous also in their resonance behavior. The induced effect on welfare varies between gains due to increased demand in some regions and losses due to demand or supply shortages in others. Within the current global supply network, the ripple resonance effect of extreme weather is strongest in high-income economies-an important effect to consider when evaluating past and future economic climate impacts.

A range of physiological adaptations allow the microbiota in these habitats to withstand low temperatures, low water and nutrient availability, high levels of UV radiation, etc. In addition, other adaptations of clear competitive nature are directed at not only surviving but thriving in these environments, by disrupting the metabolism of neighboring cells and affecting intermicrobial communication. Since Arctic microbes are bioindicators which amplify climate alterations in the environment, the Arctic region presents the opportunity to study local microbiota and carry out research about interesting, potentially virulent phenotypes that could be dispersed into other habitats around the globe as a consequence of accelerating climate change. In this context, exploration of Arctic habitats as well as descriptions of the microbes inhabiting them are abundant but microbial competitive strategies commonly associated with virulence and pathogens are rarely reported. In this project, environmental samples from the Arctic region were collected and microorganisms (bacteria and fungi) were isolated. The clinical relevance of these microorganisms was assessed by observing the following virulence markers: ability to grow at a range of temperatures, expression of antimicrobial resistance and production of hemolysins. The aim of this project is to determine the frequency and relevance of these characteristics in an effort to understand microbial adaptations in habitats threatened by climate change. The isolates obtained and described here were able to grow at a range of temperatures, in some cases more than 30 °C higher than their original isolation temperature. A considerable number of them consistently expressed compounds capable of lysing sheep and bovine erythrocytes on blood agar at different incubation temperatures. Ethanolic extracts of these bacteria were able to cause rapid and complete lysis of erythrocyte suspensions and might even be hemolytic when assayed on human blood. In silico analyses showed a variety of resistance elements, some of them novel, against natural and synthetic antimicrobial compounds. In vitro experiments against a number of antimicrobial compounds showed resistance phenotypes belonging to wild-type populations and some non-wild type which clearly denote human influence in the acquisition of antimicrobial resistance. The results of this project demonstrate the presence of virulence-associated factors expressed by microorganisms of natural, non-clinical environments. This study contains some of the first reports, to the best of our knowledge, of hemolytic microbes isolated from the Arctic region. In addition, it provides additional information about the presence and expression of intrinsic and acquired antimicrobial resistance in environmental isolates, contributing to the understanding of the evolution of relevant pathogenic species and opportunistic pathogens. Finally, this study highlights some of the potential risks associated with changes in the polar regions (habitat melting and destruction, ecosystem transition and re-colonization) as important indirect consequences of global warming and altered climatic conditions around the planet. N2 - Die Arktis ist ein reiches und dynamisches Ökosystem, welches von Mikroorganismen dominiert wird, die unter extremen Bedingungen überleben und funktionieren können. Eine Reihe physiologischer Anpassungen ermöglichen es der Mikrobiota, in diesem Lebensraum zu überdauern niedrige Temperaturen, geringe Wasser- und Nährstoffverfügbarkeit, hohe UV-Strahlung, usw. standzuhalten. Andere Fähigkeiten zielen darauf ab, sich einen Konkurrenzvorteil zu verschaffen, indem sie mit antimikrobiellen Substanzen benachbarte Mikroorganismen stören und die intermikrobielle Kommunikation beeinflussen. Arktische Mikroorganismen sind Bioindikatoren, die Klimaveränderungen anzeigen können. Die Arktis bietet Möglichkeiten, die lokale Mikrobiota zu untersuchen, um Rückschlüsse auf den Klimawandel zu ziehen. Insbesondere Forschung über potenziell pathogene Phänotypen, die infolge der Beschleunigung des Klimawandels in andere Lebensräume auf der ganzen Welt verteilt werden könnten, ist hier von herausragender Bedeutung. In diesem Zusammenhang gibt es zahlreiche Untersuchungen zur Erforschung arktischer Lebensräume sowie Beschreibungen der in ihnen lebenden Mikroben, während über bakterielle Konkurrenzstrategien, die üblicherweise mit Virulenz und Krankheitserregern verbunden sind, bisher wenig geforscht wurde. In diesem Projekt wurden Umweltproben aus der Arktis entnommen und Bakterien und Pilze isoliert. Die klinische Relevanz dieser Mikroorganismen wurde durch Untersuchung der folgenden Virulenzmarker bewertet: Fähigkeit, in einem bestimmten Temperaturbereich zu wachsen, Expression von Antibiotikaresistenz und Produktion von Hämolysinen. Ziel dieses Projekts war es, das Vorkommen dieser Eigenschaften zu bestimmen, um die mikrobiellen Anpassungen in vom Klimawandel bedrohten Lebensräumen zu verstehen. Die beschriebenen Bakterienisolate konnten in einem relevanten Temperaturbereich wachsen, in einigen Fällen von mehr als 30 °C höher als ihre ursprüngliche Isolationstemperatur. Eine beträchtliche Anzahl der Isolate exprimierte konsistent Verbindungen, die Schaf- und Rindererythrozyten auf Blutagar bei verschiedenen Inkubationstemperaturen lysieren können. Die Extrakte einiger dieser Bakterien konnten eine schnelle und vollständige Lyse von Schaf- und Rindererythrozytensuspensionen verursachen und sind möglicherweise sogar hämolytisch gegenüber humanem Blut. Darüber hinaus zeigten Genomanalysen eine Vielzahl von Resistenzgenen gegen natürliche und synthetische antimikrobielle Verbindungen, einige neuartige. In-vitro-Experimente zeigten, dass einige Resistenzphänotypen zu Wildtyp-Populationen während andere zu Nicht-Wildtyp gehören, was auf einen menschlichen Einfluss auf den Erwerb von Antibiotikaresistenzen in der Umwelt eindeutig hindeutet. Die Ergebnisse dieses Projekts zeigen das Vorhandensein von Virulenz-assoziierten Faktoren, die von Mikroorganismen natürlicher, nicht klinischer Umgebungen exprimiert werden. Diese Studie enthält nach unserem besten Wissen einige der ersten Berichte über hämolytische Mikroben, die aus der Arktis isoliert wurden. Darüber hinaus liefert es zusätzliche Informationen über das Vorhandensein und die Expression von intrinsischer und erworbener antimikrobieller Resistenz in Umweltisolaten und trägt zum Verständnis der Entwicklung relevanter pathogener Spezies und opportunistischer Pathogene bei. Schließlich beleuchtet diese Studie einige der potenziellen Risiken, die mit Veränderungen in den Polarregionen (Schmelzen und Zerstörung des Lebensraums, Übergang des Ökosystems und Wiederbesiedlung) als wichtige indirekte Folgen der globalen Erwärmung und veränderter klimatischer Bedingungen auf dem Planeten verbunden sind.

Here we show that accounting for such damages significantly increases the near-term ambition of transformation pathways. We use econometric estimates of climate damages on GDP growth and explicitly model the uncertainty in the persistence time of damages. The Integrated Assessment Model we use includes the climate system and mitigation technology detail required to derive near-term policies. We find an optimal carbon price of $115 per tonne of CO2 in 2030. The long-term persistence of damages, while highly uncertain, is a main driver of the near-term carbon price. Accounting for damages on economic growth increases the gap between the currently pledged nationally determined contributions and the welfare-optimal 2030 emissions by two thirds, compared to pathways considering the 2 ∘C limit only.

Hydrological impacts of recent changes in climate are usually investigated by trend analyses applied on annual, seasonal, or monthly time series. None of these detect sub-seasonal changes and their underlying causes. This study investigated sub-seasonal changes in streamflow, rainfall, and snowmelt in 61 and 51 catchments respectively in Western (Vestlandet) and Eastern (ostlandet) Norway by applying the Mann-Kendall test and Theil-Sen estimator on 10-day moving averaged daily time series over a 30-year period (1983-2012). The relative contribution of rainfall versus snowmelt to daily streamflow and the changes therein have also been estimated to identify the changing relevance of these driving processes over the same period. Detected changes in 10-day moving averaged daily streamflow were finally attributed to changes in the most important hydro-meteorological drivers using multiple-regression models with increasing complexity. Earlier spring flow timing in both regions occur due to earlier snowmelt. ostlandet shows increased summer streamflow in catchments up to 1100 m a.s.l. and slightly increased winter streamflow in about 50% of the catchments. Trend patterns in Vestlandet are less coherent. The importance of rainfall has increased in both regions. Attribution of trends reveals that changes in rainfall and snowmelt can explain some streamflow changes where they are dominant processes (e.g., spring snowmelt in ostlandet and autumn rainfall in Vestlandet). Overall, the detected streamflow changes can be best explained by adding temperature trends as an additional predictor, indicating the relevance of additional driving processes such as increased glacier melt and evapotranspiration.

The IPCC 1.5 °C special report (SR1.5) presents 414 emissions scenarios modelled for the report, of which around 50 are classified as '1.5 °C scenarios', with no or low temperature overshoot. These emission scenarios differ in their reliance on individual mitigation levers, including reduction of global energy demand, decarbonisation of energy production, development of land-management systems, and the pace and scale of deploying carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies. The reliance of 1.5 °C scenarios on these levers needs to be critically assessed in light of the potentials of the relevant technologies and roll-out plans. We use a set of five parameters to bundle and characterise the mitigation levers employed in the SR1.5 1.5 °C scenarios. For each of these levers, we draw on the literature to define 'medium' and 'high' upper bounds that delineate between their 'reasonable', 'challenging' and 'speculative' use by mid century. We do not find any 1.5 °C scenarios that stay within all medium upper bounds on the five mitigation levers. Scenarios most frequently 'over use' CDR with geological storage as a mitigation lever, whilst reductions of energy demand and carbon intensity of energy production are 'over used' less frequently. If we allow mitigation levers to be employed up to our high upper bounds, we are left with 22 of the SR1.5 1.5 °C scenarios with no or low overshoot. The scenarios that fulfil these criteria are characterised by greater coverage of the available mitigation levers than those scenarios that exceed at least one of the high upper bounds. When excluding the two scenarios that exceed the SR1.5 carbon budget for limiting global warming to 1.5 °C, this subset of 1.5 °C scenarios shows a range of 15–22 Gt CO2 (16–22 Gt CO2 interquartile range) for emissions in 2030. For the year of reaching net zero CO2 emissions the range is 2039–2061 (2049–2057 interquartile range).
