The report that has now been submitted reports and ranks ten areas in Sweden where such climate-related risks are particularly large. The area West Coast - Göta älvdalen is judged to have the most serious and complex risk picture. Another area is the Skåne-Halland coast. The focus has been on identifying major cross-regional risk areas where the risks are complex and require cooperation in order to be preventable, in order to get a national overview of the situation.
The areas that affect our archipelagos are:
- The west coast - Göta älvdalen
- Mälardalen - Stockholm
- Skåne-Halland coast
