NERP TE Project 11.1: Torres Strait Community Resilience Scenarios, 2011-2014

Participatory scenario planning for Torres Strait communities facing climate change and development pressures. The project, conducted by CSIRO from 2011 to 2014, produced workshop reports and assessments to identify adaptation strategies. Outputs include typologies of livelihoods, vulnerability assessments, and future impact evaluations for ecosystem services.

Use Cases

• Assessing community vulnerability based on the described adaptive capacity evaluations
• Modeling future livelihood scenarios using the identified key drivers and plausible futures
• Identifying adaptation strategies for vulnerable communities as outlined in the project tasks
• Analyzing impacts on ecosystem services based on the described assessment of potential future drivers

Strengths

• Project involved participatory scenario planning with Torres Strait and PNG communities and stakeholders
• Informed by integrated ecosystem and climate modelling
• Covers a defined time period from 2011 to 2014

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Data may reflect geographic/temporal bias inherent to data_gov_au
