RAMSES is a European research project, which delivered much needed quantified evidence of the impacts of climate change and the costs and benefits of a wide range of adaptation measures, focusing on cities. Urban characteristics and their inter-linkages are identified and used to provide the local context for the assessment. In an integrated top-down and bottom-up approach risks vulnerabilities and damages from climate change are quantified. Associated costs and  benefits of adaptation are then estimated to support the design of sustainable transition strategies in urban areas. RAMSES engaged with stakeholders to ensure its outcomes are policy relevant and ultimately enable the design and implementation of adaptation strategies in the EU and beyond.

NTNU is leading work package 2 "Taxonomy of architecture and infrastructure indicators" and is the only Norwegian participant.
