Anja Soboll, Tobias Klier, Stefan Heumann
In recent years, climate change and its economic effects increasingly have become the focus of public attention. Previous investigations, however, have dealt with large spatial units and thus have blurred small-scale distinctions. This paper analyses the future economic impacts of climate change at the regional level in order to ascertain local positive and negative development trends. To this end, scenarios based on different climate, societal and economic trends are used to estimate on an unprecedented small scale prospective tourism demand and the derived economic development for the districts studied.
