Les populations insulaires face au changement climatique : des migrations a anticiper

Impacts of climate change on island countries have been made clear in the assessment reports of the IPCC. Though the first consequences will be environmental, with sea-level rise and the increase of extreme weather events, socio-economic consequences will quickly follow. In the next twenty years, du...
