Gdansk in Poland and the Netherlands share a long-term relationship that started with the establishment of Dutch Mennonites in the Vistula delta in the 16th Century. Climate-change figures show that both the Polish Gdansk and DutchRotterdam deltas will suffer flooding due to sea level rise, with accumulating severe rainfall accompanied by high river levels; reasons that led to a comparison of the adaptation measures taken. On the basis of the crossover comparison studied, it can be concluded that Poland and the Netherlands have a virtually identical approach when it comes to climate-change impacts on their current situation. With regard to the long-term climate-change trend, the Netherlands in exploring for the future more ‘anticipatory’ measures with the development of new scenarios for the protection of land and cities. In the Netherlands the use of Hackathon approach is thereby used more often to explore such scenarios. The interaction between the experts and stakeholders of different expertise in this methodology show to lead to creative and new perspectives. This approach may also be recommended for the situation in Gdansk.

Existe la percepción de que el clima está cambiando en todo el mundo, pero pocas veces se analiza cómo (y cuánto) es ese cambio. En esta nota se presentan avances del análisis del clima para Xalapa y Coatepec. Se realizó una caracterización del clima y se determinaron las tendencias de temperatura y precipitación considerando cómo ha cambiado el clima en 50 años (1961-2010). Se utilizó la metodología del Grupo de Expertos en Detección e Índices de Cambio Climático (ETCCDI por sus siglas en inglés). Se encontró que ambas ciudades se están volviendo térmicamente menos extremosos (menos diferencia entre temperaturas altas y bajas), igualmente se encontró que ahora hay mayor precipitación total anual, aunque en menos días. Se prevén incrementos de las temperaturas mínima y máxima de alrededor 0.02 y 0.008 °C/año, respectivamente y la precipitación anual se incrementaría un 17.3 % en Xalapa y un 7.3 % en Coatepec, para el 2050.Palabras clave: Cambio climático; análisis de tendencias; condiciones hídricas; sistemas agroforestales cafetaleros; percepción del clima AbstractThere is a strong perception that climate is changing worldwide, nevertheless few times this climate change has been detailed analyzed and, even less, measured. This note presents some progresses regarding climate analysis for the cities of Xalapa and Coatepec, using the methodology of the Expert Group on Detection and Indexes of Climate Change (ETCCDI). Climate characterization and tem perature and precipitation trends for 50 years (1960-2010) were realized. It was found that both cities are becoming thermally less extre­mes (with less difference between high and low temperatures). Similarly, it was found a cu­rrent increment in annual total precipitation, even though there are less rainy days. Increa­ses are expected in minimum and maximum temperatures of 0.02 °C/year and 0.008 °C for year, respectively, and annual total precipita­tion would be increased about 17.3% for Xala­pa and 7.3% for Coatepec.Keywords: Climate change; trend analysis; water conditions; coffee agroforestry systems; climate perception
