Effects on the physical environment: Enhancing knowledge about the effects of climate change on Norway’s physical environment, including its effects on the built environment. Effects on biotic systems: Identifying and quantifying the effects of climate change on marine, limnic and terrestrial ecosystems. Effects on society: Identifying regions and sectors that may be particularly vulnerable to climate change over the next 30-50 years, and providing input for a national strategy for adaptation to projected climate change.
