  • Summary

  • Climate change could disrupt the operation of ports and harbours, a vital part of the global supply chain, unless they are well prepared.

    Maria di Leo, Mark Lee and Tom Matthewson discuss how ports need to allow for the predicted impacts of climate change – rising sea levels, higher waves and increased storminess – when designing new infrastructure or adapting existing sea walls, quays or breakwaters.

    Our experts also outline the role ports can play in cutting carbon emissions, for instance by supporting ships moving to low carbon fuels, or changing dredging practices and techniques to make space for new habitats.
