Definition of complex impact chains and input-output matrix for each island and sector

SOCLIMPACT improves a climate change risk assessment, helping islands to identify their climate change related risks or to test their existing risk management strategies under climate change and therefore identify sectorial challenges where new strategies are needed. Following these steps, the SOCLIMPACT project will operationalize with a modelling chain between WP4-WP5 and WP6 the outputs of WP3: some relevant impact chains, selected after each step of WP3 will be modelized. o A first step of risk screening allows sector leaders to conduct a desk-top study and screen the climate change-related exposure of each sector using readily available datasets, which are registered in the D3.3 and D3.4. o A second step risk assessment takes a standard risk-based approach using national data, local information and expert knowledge in order to formalize some theoretical impact chains. o A third step (detailed) risk assessment process allows sector leaders and islands focal points to further investigate short-listed impact chains and provides support to prioritise sectors and/or sub-risks.
