Abstract
Selected aspects of currently running project UrbanAdapt are described. The project deals with the adaptation of cities on changing climatic conditions. The main project objective is to start the process of preparation of cities adaptation strategies, developing adaptation scenarios and testing the effects and benefits of particular measures. Previously developed models of adaptation impacts are used with available real data and according to several prepared scenarios to provide necessary decision making tools. The final policies have to take into account climatic conditions, available means, and devices to propose necessary amendments and solutions. Project team involves groups from different fields that cover various aspects of adaptation measures including economic analyses, policy making processes, education and dissemination to the public. The presented paper deals with the part of activities which are focused on modelling of adaptation measures and climatic impacts for the city of Prague.
