Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation (SREX)
This digital library, compiled as part of the IPCC review and drafting process, is a database of non-journal-based literature cited in SREX chapters. The corresponding literature citations and/or the full text of underlying sources can be searched, for individual chapters or the report overall. Clicking on a chapter number lists citations for that chapter only, and the search field can be used to filter results by keyword for the selected chapter. The search query can be applied to the full text of documents by checking 'Include Full Text.' For each citation, the 'Download PDF' link provides access to the document if available. Standard querying conventions are supported.
