Description
  • Th is paper investigates household adaptation strategies in a region aff ected by repeated fl oods, focused on the period from 1997 to 2012. Th e main research question pay attention to the overall state of household adaptation measures and whether we can discover some progress in response to repeated fl ooding from the various sources of the Bečva river basin. Th e target area is located along the upper and middle parts of the Bečva river basin in the eastern part of the Czech Republic. Th e research was conducted during autumn and winter 2012. In the empirical part, we use a mixed methodology and case study approach. Firstly, we conducted qualitative research through in-depth interviews with relevant stakeholders in the region (N=21), to serve as an initial leadup to the issue. Th en we proceeded with quantitative research by conducting door-to-door questionnaires with household residents (N=304) in risk zones in relation to fl ood occurrence, to fi nd out which factors infl uence adaptation strategies. Th e qualitative research revealed that most of the respondents were aware of the limits of regional adaptation measures that have been taken up to now. Quantitative research detected that household adaptation to repeated fl oods has slowly improved. Generally speaking, although regional bodies and households have taken some adaptation measures to fl oods, complex ways of adjusting to climate extremes remain underdeveloped.
