| Abstract: | Located in the central Mediterranean Sea, the Maltese islands are prone to a set of climate change impacts that are specific to the region. Local climatological records show a warming trend of both the annual maximum and minimum temperatures, where the incidence of warmer nights is becoming increasingly common. Coherence in the formulation and application of climate related policy that deals with climate change adaptation is fundamental in order to ensure avoidance of sectorial initiatives that may have unintended but negative adaptive consequences. |
