• Analyse einer unter Touristen erfolgten Umfrage in Hinblick auf Erkenntnisse für die Auswahl geeigneter Anpassungsmaßnahmen an regionale Klimawandelauswirkungen sowie die strategische Ausrichtung der regionalen touristischen Entwicklung.
• Coast and climate change – an analysis of tourists' perception at the German Baltic coast: Coastal tourism along the German Baltic coast is one of the most important economic sectors in the region. For several years, the numbers of overnight stays show an increasing trend. But as tourism is rated as highly climate-sensitive, the regional impacts of global climate change will, among other factors, in the future pose a relevant challenge to the sector. For this reason a survey was carried out in summer 2010 at three beaches in close proximity to the German coastal town of Rostock. In total, 713 questionnaires were evaluated. The findings of the survey are discussed in the context of coastal management and development of adaptation strategies.
