Description
The Town of Yarmouth and the Municipality of the District of Yarmouth, located on the southwest coast of Nova Scotia, Canada (Figure 1) are two of 13 Nova Scotia municipalities that participated in the Atlantic Climate Adaptation Solutions (ACAS) initiative. ACAS involves government and non-government partners working collaboratively to help Atlantic Canadian communities build adaptive capacity to meet the challenges of climate change. Researchers in the School of Planning, Dalhousie University conducted a series of projects under ACAS to assist the Town and the District of Yarmouth in building its adaptive capacity. This report is a compilation of these projects.
