Tabriz
Iran
Tabriz is projected to face a variety of moderate climate risks that pose significant threats to its sustainability. Changing temperature and precipitation patterns are expected to disrupt local agriculture and water resources, potentially leading to food security issues. Additionally, increased heat events may elevate health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations, and irregular rainfall can intensify drought scenarios, affecting biodiversity. The city will likely see more frequent extreme weather events, which could severely impact infrastructure and essential services. Although technology-enabled climate resilience solutions have not yet been documented for Tabriz, recognizing and understanding these climate hazards is essential for informing future adaptation measures and ensuring the wellbeing of the city and its residents. Overall, proactive management of these anticipated climate challenges is critical for sustaining Tabriz’s ecological and social framework.
