Using case studies and examples from around the world, the guide answers questions that help assess, address, and adapt to a world of increasing climate risks. What is the value of our rivers, and what do they mean for climate resilience?; What are climate risks to rivers, ecosystem services, dams, and communities?; How can we evaluate dams and other water and energy projects, in lieu of climate resilience of local communities?; How can we develop adaptation plans that address these risks?; How can we avoid “maladaptation”?; What are more resilient solutions for meeting water and energy needs?.
