Kayseri
Turkey
Kayseri is projected to face moderate climate risks in the future, primarily related to rising temperatures and altered precipitation patterns. This shift is expected to lead to more frequent heatwaves and extended drought periods, impacting local agriculture and water supplies. Additionally, changing seasonal weather dynamics may contribute to an increased likelihood of extreme weather events, further heightening vulnerability levels. The city’s infrastructure could face strain under these evolving conditions, posing potential challenges for public health and economic stability. While technology-enabled climate resilience solutions have not yet been documented for Kayseri, acknowledging and preparing for these projected impacts is essential for the city’s sustainability. Proactive measures will be vital to address these anticipated risks and protect communities from the adverse effects of climate change. Collaborative efforts across sectors will also play a critical role in enhancing the city's resilience and adaptation strategies moving forward.
