Abstract

Climate change presents substantial challenges for the aviation sector, particularly concerning the assessment and management of risks to airport infrastructure and operations. Effective climate risk assessment is crucial for implementing prioritized adaptation strategies that enhance airport resilience. This paper introduces an innovative matrix-based co-design approach to evaluate climate risks for airports, illustrated by a case study of Bologna Airport, located in Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The matrix-based approach, distinguished by its integration of climate hazard, exposure and vulnerability data, proves to be both robust and replicable, especially when key stakeholders actively participate in the process. The approach offers a systematic framework for identifying and assessing climate risks, facilitating the development of effective adaptation strategies. The Bologna Airport case study highlights the approach’s practical application, demonstrating its effectiveness in risk assessment and its potential to guide decision-making for more resilient airport management. The findings underscore the importance of early and equitable preventive actions and support, making vulnerability analysis a critical component in developing effective adaptation strategies. This research advances resilience planning in the aviation sector and offers valuable insights for other airports facing similar climate challenges.

基于协同设计矩阵的机场气候风险评估方法：以博洛尼亚机场为例

气候变化给航空业带来了重大挑战，特别是在机场基础设施和运营风险的评估和管理方面。有效的气候风险评估对于实施增强机场复原力的优先适应战略至关重要。本文介绍了一种基于矩阵的创新协同设计方法来评估机场的气候风险，并以意大利艾米利亚-罗马涅的博洛尼亚机场为例进行了说明。基于矩阵的方法，其特点是它整合了气候危害、暴露和脆弱性数据，被证明是稳健和可复制的，特别是当关键利益相关者积极参与这一过程时。该方法为识别和评估气候风险提供了一个系统框架，促进了有效适应战略的制定。博洛尼亚机场的案例研究突出了该方法的实际应用，展示了其在风险评估方面的有效性，以及指导机场管理更具弹性的决策的潜力。调查结果强调了早期和公平的预防行动和支持的重要性，使脆弱性分析成为制定有效适应战略的关键组成部分。这项研究促进了航空业的弹性规划，并为面临类似气候挑战的其他机场提供了有价值的见解。

期刊介绍： The journal Climate Services publishes research with a focus on science-based and user-specific climate information underpinning climate services, ultimately to assist society to adapt to climate change. Climate Services brings science and practice closer together. The journal addresses both researchers in the field of climate service research, and stakeholders and practitioners interested in or already applying climate services. It serves as a means of communication, dialogue and exchange between researchers and stakeholders. Climate services pioneers novel research areas that directly refer to how climate information can be applied in methodologies and tools for adaptation to climate change. It publishes best practice examples, case studies as well as theories, methods and data analysis with a clear connection to climate services. The focus of the published work is often multi-disciplinary, case-specific, tailored to specific sectors and strongly application-oriented. To offer a suitable outlet for such studies, Climate Services journal introduced a new section in the research article type. The research article contains a classical scientific part as well as a section with easily understandable practical implications for policy makers and practitioners. The journal''s focus is on the use and usability of climate information for adaptation purposes underpinning climate services.
