Tourism, the weather and future changes
Abstract
Tourism often depends on the weather for participation, satisfaction, safety, and business viability. Climate models predict increasing temperatures, changing intensity and distribution of rainfall, decreased snowfall, and sea level rise. Our study will focus on present variability and direction of change, and short-term adaptation options, but also consider future scenarios.
