for agricultural use. Additionally, the fresh water in coastal zones will be
affected by the anticipated sea level rise.
One of the consequences of climate changes will be flooding which will affect the assessment and
delineation of suitable industrial and agricultural development areas. Groundwater level and sea level
rises will challenge the construction sector and it will be necessary to come up with new

by level of the analytical process
• Paradigm level: e.g. long term evolution in societal value
systems and prioritization structures
• scenario choices; delineation; (model type choice)
• Conceptual level: understanding of the causal structure
• Model (type) choice; model structure; data sources/needs
• Model level: sufficiently adequate representation of the causal
structure and orders

distinct from other modes. Similarly, at regional/local levels mainly links to the neighboring
regions count, not so much links to other networks. This delineation is also important in order to
keep the adaptation planning and policy cycle manageable, because the road transport sector has
many stakeholders with different agendas. Climate change has a large variety of direct and
indirect impacts

resolution airborne lidar imagery as a method to derive glacier velocity for slower moving,
smaller ice masses, using surveys of Midre Lovenbreen, NW Svalbard, from 2003 and 2005.
These data were used by Rees and Arnold (2007) to calculate preliminary estimates of the
glacier velocity. We use three methods; manual delineation of visible features (e.g. supra-
