State-of-the-Practice Climate Change Adaptation Activities for California MPOs and RTPAsAppendix2.0 Additional InformationResourcesCAKE (Climate Adaptation Knowledge Exchange)Climate Adaptation Knowledge Exchange (CAKE) is an on-line resource aimedat practitioners in a variety of disciplines that provides information about climatechange adaptation. EcoAdapt and Island Press, both nonprofit organizations,manage the web site in an effort to share information and best practices at no costand create a “community of practice” around climate change adaptation.Highlights include U.S. and international case studies about adaptation effortsand projects. It is possible to narrow a search by keyword to focus on a specificsub-area such as transportation, for example. Additionally, links to helpful toolsrelevant documents, and upcoming events are posted on CAKE.Source: http://www.cakex.org/.Cal-AdaptCal-Adapt, launched in June 2001, provides information about the effect ofclimate change on the local level in California. Developed by University ofCalifornia’s Berkeley’s Geospatial Innovation Facility (GIF) with support fromthe California Energy Commission’s Public Interest Energy Research (PIER)Program and Google.org, this tool incorporates scientific research from acrossCalifornia. The site provides interactive maps and other visual representationsto help educate users about potential climate change effects. For example, a usercan click on a “Local Climate Snapshot” to see the projected temperaturechanges, snow pack, or other climate events throughout the state. Imagesinclude a map that the user can manipulate as well as graphs charting historicaland projected changes in a specific area.Source: http://cal-adapt.org/San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development CommissionResources for Adaptation PlanningThis web site provides a summary of resources on climate change adaptationrelevant for California regions. Topics covered include state and regional climatechange science and impacts; adaptation planning principles and process; tools,data sources and example adaptation actions; engaging communities anddecision-makers; case studies and example adaptation plans; and state andregional adaptation policy and planning efforts.Source: http://www.bcdc.ca.gov/planning/climate_change/resources.shtml.B-12 Cambridge Systematics, Inc.
State-of-the-Practice Climate Change Adaptation Activities for California MPOs and RTPAsAppendixTransportation and Climate Change ClearinghouseMaintained by US DOT, this clearinghouse is touted as a “one-stop source ofinformation on transportation and climate change issues,” including both GHGmitigation and adaptation to climate impacts. Relevant resources are listedwithin two categories, “Climate Change Impacts” and “Adaptation Planning.”Source: http://climate.dot.gov.Adaptation ClearinghouseThe Adaptation Clearinghouse was developed by the Georgetown ClimateCenter to provide information that will help communities adapt to climatechange. Although not specific to transportation, this clearinghouse is fullysearchable, with filters including a) state or region, b) resource type, c) impacts,d) sectors (including transportation) and e) jurisdiction, as well as text searchcapability. Each research includes a substantial summary and typically a hot linkto the resource. As of January 1, 2013, there were 211 resources available, with 83pertaining to transportation.Source: http://www.georgetownclimate.org/adaptation/clearinghouse.TRID DatabaseProduced and maintained by the Transportation Research Board of the USNational Academies, the TRID database contains more than one million recordson research in the field of transportation. The transportation researchcommunity’s largest collection of resources must be searched by key-word toyield results on climate change adaptation, and may deliver less relevant results.However, it includes a good selection of international work, and may helpidentify transportation research efforts that support, but are not specificallyfocused on, adaptation. As on January 1, 2013, a search for “climate changeadaptation” returned 229 results.Source: http://trid.trb.org/Cambridge Systematics, Inc. B-13
