Urban areas, densely populated and often located in vulnerable coastal regions, are particularly susceptible to the impacts of climate change. This chapter explores diverse ways technology can be leveraged enhance resilience these urban environments. Focusing on mitigation adaptation strategies, study examines potential smart city technologies, including sensor networks, data analytics, AI, improve infrastructure management disaster preparedness. Specific examples include real-time flood monitoring systems, predictive modelling for extreme weather events, optimized energy grids reduced carbon emissions. Furthermore, investigates role digital platforms facilitating community engagement fostering collaborative responses climate-related challenges. importance equitable access need robust governance frameworks ensure that technological interventions effectively contribute building climate-resilient sustainable futures is explored

Abstract This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the process-based models currently available for blue-green infrastructure assessment cooling potential, stormwater and pollution control, carbon sequestration, water provision. The modelling tools elements (BGEs) documents that there is no model simultaneous evaluation optimisation multiple ecosystem services BGEs. To evaluate coupling options, this study conducted meta-analysis on interoperability by assessing scales, drivers, overlaps, gaps, interfaces these Model points out conceptual constructual constraints preventing easy coupling, thus, an integrated services. Constraints arise due to very different disciplinary approaches from scientific communities involved in development, differences simulation transformation transport processes at urban relevant BGEs, fundamental divergences spatial temporal scales time steps existing single In particular, lack vegetation tailored BGEs hinders current developments towards developing tool services, which would be able handle nonstationary climate conditions, including feedback assessments drought heatwave impacts functioning
