Developed by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, 'Technologies for adaptation: innovation, priorities and needs in agriculture, water resources and coastal zones' serves to inform on trends and best practices within adaptation technology across the agriculture, coastal, and water sectors. The paper provides several individual case studies on adaptation technology, which serve as best practices to model and integrate into individual adaptation circumstances. Within the technologies section, the paper focuses on emerging technologies to advance capacity building, resilience, as well as reducing vulnerability to climate change. Each technology is evaluated on its efficacy through each of the three sectors discussed in the paper.
