The fact sheet is addressed to planners who are working on Marine Spatial Planning in Sweden. In order to better understand the increased vulnerability of the marine resources due to climate change and to include this information into robust decision-making, the ClimeMarine project recommends spatial planners to:
- Be aware how climate change will affect different areas of the sea in different ways.
- Plan marine activities to make sure the cumulative environmental impact takes climate change into account.
- Plan with adaptive management, as the best available data is continually improving.

“Throughout creative communication, the ClimeMarine project is hoping that its target audience will discover and endorse the proposed guidelines These guidelines are important results from the project.” says Emilie Breviere from the SMHI oceanographic research unit.
ClimeMarine is a project that promotes ecosystem-based management of the Swedish sea with climate change considerations through close contact and information exchange between the project, stakeholders, and decision-makers.
ClimeMarine is funded by the Swedish Research Council for Sustainable Development, Formas, within the framework of the National Research Programme for Climate (grant no. 2017-01949) during 2018-2020.
