| Summary | This book aims to update the last volume, Disappearing Destinations (2011), and presents new cases that discuss current threats and consequences of climate change predictions on coastal tourism destinations. In this context, predicted changes and implications for management and policy at such destinations are assessed. The book chapters are divided into two key parts. In the first part, Chapters 1 to 7 explore the theoretical and contextual frameworks of climate change processes and their general relationship with coastal tourism destinations. Such concepts, for example, evaluate the relationship and juxtaposition between climate change and tourism, coastal zone management, climate predictions and explore emerging issues relating to tourism destinations, sustainability and economic well-being. In Part 2, Chapters 8 to 25 provide a more applied practical discussion, which draws upon a range of international case studies from leading academics, professionals and practitioners. These case studies illustrate contemporary issues in the development of coastal tourism destinations and perceived impacts of climate change, and review suggested or implemented ameliorative measures. The case studies are based on specific coastal tourism typologies, including established beach resorts, ecotourism destinations, island destinations and adventure/alternative coastal destinations, and are drawn from key regions of the world including Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and Australasia. |
