Description
Sea level rise due to climate change may threaten humans who live near the coastal areas. To adapt to climate change, it is important to examine the cost of coastal protection in the context of climate change. It can be protected more efficiently and economically whether planted mangrove forests or installed dikes along the toropical and subtropical coastline. However, few studies have been conducted to examine the long-term feasibility and impact of adaptation measures at a national level. This study carried out cost analysis of such measures in Philippines and Vietnam. It was found that combining mangrove forests and dikes were potentially effective in Vietnam where the extent of inundation and economic damage is expected to large in the future. Conversely, the feasibility of such measure in the Philippines was lower than Vietnam, requiring site-specific management solutions to accommodate local conditions.
