Abstract
The study aims to find out mechanisms and approaches to adapt to the mobility
of urban, social and economic development of region and cities of Delta in light
of the impact of global climate change, the study has formed from four parts
that containing seven chapters, which precedence with research proposal, and
followed by references, it was interested in the part one with theoretical frame,
which consists of two chapters, the first chapter cares with tracing to the
historical mobility of urban, social and economic development of Delta in light
of the impact of environmental climate change, and the second chapters cares
with the current and future development of Delta in the light of the threat of
SLR and desertification resulting from implications of environmental climate
change, whereas part two has two chapters, the third chapter devoted to the
study of approaches and mechanisms of adaptation to climate change risks in
urban planning at the local and global level, and As for the fourth chapter
interests in studying coastal systems and adapt to threats to coastal in the light of
environmental change global climate, comes the role of part three, which
contains two chapters, the chapter five specializes to evaluate the risk and
vulnerability assessment of coastal systems in Delta in light of threats of climate
change, but for the chapter six was interested in assessing the urban plans
affecting on Delta region on several levels, including national, regional and
sectoral (North Delta) and local planning, and finally comes part four, which
contains the chapter seven (final chapter), which presents conclusions and
recommendations of this study.
The study found from the historical study that environmental climate changes
was forming a main axis in the developmental mobility of urban communities
through factors of desertification and drought, on the other hand, the
displacement of river and sea , as shown by studying the current era, which the
environmental climate change is an environmental threat that emerged with
human activities and nature change, as a result of increasing concentrations of
greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere, which will work on the
continuation of increasing temperature, the source of concern is the increasing
level of the surface of seas and oceans, which resulting from the thermal
expansion of oceans and seas. The process now subjects to uncertainty policy
and forecasting through current indicators by their impact on many sectors of
development, particularly in coastal areas, where threat of losing land and other
threats to tourism, culture, natural heritage, public health, economic aspects and
social aspects.
The study concluded that adaptation mechanisms with climate change risks by
pursuing a policy of mitigation or adaptation, or both together, these measures
are focused on application of environmental standards and building codes,
energy and water management, and etc. This is by proposing incentives and laws

to regulate and improve land management and advocacy to reduce the intensity
and direction of green areas inside and outside the building, also by the realistic
implementation and merging consequences of climate change within disaster
reduction programs (branching out to a series of decisions in the floods event
and other events). Also it should follow when designing new cities or redesign
existing cities, the flexibility and ability to adapt in light of understanding to
interface relations between climate impacts and urban, economy, land use,
transportation and natural environment. As well as following the concentration
policy or policy from top to bottom when developing regulations and strategies
that may reduce these consequences. The previous factors should be considered
for many leading cities in the world, which began in feeding the need to adapt
with climate change, such as the trend towards green cities, including the trend
toward clean energy and other policies.
The study found a set of recommendations, including: the establishment of a
regional center of an integrated study for climate change, as well as the
establishment of a database for monitoring regular sea level, storms, water and
soil salinity, as suggested by the study to put high level policy to mitigate the
current climate change and to put adaptation considerations in all decisions
about coastal planning, also it should conduct a preliminary assessment of
communities vulnerable by the local authorities a preliminary assessment of weaknesses.
