Abstract

The city of Skive, located in West Jutland Denmark, is looking to develop a long term strategic urban development plan integrated with supporting climate adaptation pathways keeping Skive climate-proof for future conditions. In this study a Dynamic Adaptive Pathway Plan (DAPP) was used to investigate uncertainties with regards to future climate change and urban development. Similarly to uncertainties regarding climate change (e.g. Sea-level rise) and the associated change in risk, there is great uncertainty in the future development of the system (Skive) through a range of socio-economic variables. This will directly affect the solution space for climate adaptation. NIRAS, LYTT Architecture and Skive Municipality have developed a strategic urban development plan and investigated the implications and possibilities for climate change adaptation in Skive. It is one of the first fully developed DAPP processes in Denmark. The project illustrated the need for supporting uptake of dynamic decision making, the necessity of multi-disciplinary collaboration within the municipality, and the integration of land use considerations within the adaptation pathway development.
