and many additional benefits. Demonstrating these multiple benefits will help to
align sectors. The European Commission and the European Environment Agency
are hosting the Climate-ADAPT portalÂ
to make better use of knowledge on adapta-
tion in Europe. The portal provides information on, for example, adaptation policies
and strategies, case studies and a database on adaptation resources, to enhance
effective uptake by decision-makers and contribute to better coordination among
sectors and governance levels.
This volume adds significantly to the knowledge base to show the interlinkages
of biodiversity and health in a changing climate. The synthesis of knowledge across
different disciplines is highly welcomed and will inform practical and actionable
management options to climate adaptation to foster, ultimately and in a mutually
dependent manner, human health and well-being and ecosystem resilience.
