Using Analogues

  • a “city analogue” is…

“A City B whose present climate corresponds to the simulated future climate of an evaluated City A.“

  • “climate” is…

the 30 year distribution of relevant indicators

Using Analogues

  • a “city analogue” is…

“A City B whose present climate corresponds to the simulated future climate of an evaluated City A.“

  • “climate” is…

the 30 year distribution of suitable parameters

  • visualization of “good” analogues using analogue quality

maps

  • visualization of aggregate displacement using multiple

analogue maps

Conclusion analogues provide a method to talk about climate change to the lay-person adaptation cannot rely on climate change predictions (yet?)

Thank you for your attention!
