Abstract
The Chilika Lagoon climate change project worked to identify management response options and strategies for reducing risks and increasing community preparedness for changes in wetland ecosystem services due to climate change. Dynamics of water, sediment, nutrient and species exchange define the ecosystem services of the diverse wetland regime; wetlands disaster risk and perception of risk was assessed, taking livelihoods and hydrometric stations into consideration. Ecological character was also evaluated over time (1966-2010). Developing a methodology manual for wetlands managers is a next step. The presentation includes photos and graphics.
