This annotated bibliography evaluates 15 sources on climate change adaptation. Each entry includes a full citation (APA 7th ed.), a summary of key arguments, an assessment of credibility and methodology, and a reflection on how the source contributes to research.
Sample Entry:
Smith, J. & Chen, L. (2023). Urban green infrastructure for flood resilience. Journal of Climate Adaptation, 12(3), 45-62.
Summary: This study examines green infrastructure projects in three flood-prone cities. Authors find that rain gardens and permeable pavements reduce runoff by 40%.
Assessment: Published in a peer-reviewed journal with robust methodology. Sample size limited to three cities, limiting generalizability.
Reflection: Provides empirical evidence for nature-based solutions. Will support the adaptation strategies section of my research.
