摘要: Abstract Measuring the ability of a community to face climatic changes, or its adaptive capacity, is necessary in order plan and guide development as global climate continues warm. One factor that has not been thoroughly addressed by previous attempts at measuring capacity urbanization. This study looks measure relation urbanization, many areas world are undergoing this rapid transition. An indicator system was created with land-use sensitive measures applied three different land use projection scenarios (A, BAU, B − high, medium, low growth, respectively) 2030 2050 for two case areas, Tamsui, Taiwan West Palm Beach, USA. In decreased all scenarios, but most dramatically high growth scenario. The scenario more slowly through each time slice. For had highest score 2030, declined 2050. medium Scenario also higher than improved less continued rise A would be ideal short term gains, benefits plateau long term. B, conservation restricted alternative. shows urbanization socioeconomic environmental consequences. results successfully incorporates effect change into an system, can other localities expecting significant increases
