This report provides an overview of research in the field of climate change impacts & adaptation over the past five years as it relates to Canada. It begins with a chapter that introduces key concepts in climate change impacts & adaptation research, and discusses current directions in understanding vulnerability, scenarios, and costing. This is followed by seven chapters that each focus on sectors of key importance to Canada: water resources, agriculture, forestry, coastal zone, fisheries, transportation, and human health & well-being. For each sector, the report reviews the potential impacts of climate change along with options available for Canadians to adapt to those impacts. Knowledge gaps and research needs are also identified.
