Given the different geographical and human contexts in which
climate change impacts will be experienced, thinking by analogy
provides one useful way to explore dimensions of such change. This
landmark book, based on the human dimensions of global change
paradigm, examines climate impacts through the study of a
contemporary society's response to a drought period analogous to
expected future climate. Bulgaria suffered severe drought from 1982
to 1994, conditions which models suggest better reflects future
climate than existing norms. The Center for Integrated Regional
Assessment at Penn State and the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
collaborated to research this drought period as an analogy for
future climate. This book shows their assessment of what can be
learned from the impacts of and responses to contemporary drought
in Bulgaria. It therefore makes an important contribution to the
literature on regional climate change and methods used to address
anticipated impacts of that change.
