Assessing the Impact of Interactive Sea Level Rise Maps in New Zealand
PúblicoConteúdo disponível para baixar
open in viewerSea level rise (SLR) due to climate change is a global threat. Interactive maps illustrate the effects of SLR for the public but their impact is unclear. We conducted interviews with map developers, climate change scientists, and science communication experts, and distributed a public survey, to understand how best to engage the public. We determined that interactive maps are not the most effective method of SLR communication, and we recommend that NZ SeaRise develop a centralized platform for all information regarding SLR.
