Climate change is likely to significantly impact the world\u2019s infrastructure. Rising temperatures, increased precipitation, and rising sea levels are all likely to stress critical infrastructures. For instance, rising temperatures can lead to infrastructure damage from extreme heat events. This can cause roads and bridges to buckle or crack, leading to costly repairs and potential traffic disruptions. In addition, heat waves can damage vital electrical infrastructure, leading to widespread power outages. Against this background, a team of researchers at the International Climate Change Information and Research Programme (ICCIRP) based at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences in Germany, has undertaken a study, which looks at the extent to which climate change is affecting infrastructures. The results of this work are presented in a paper, which has just been published in the Journal “Scientific Reports” as an open access piece. It is, therefore, freely available.
