Climate change threatens the livelihoods and wellbeing of people around the world. Communities and individuals can limit the damages by adapting their policies, infrastructure, and behaviors for hotter temperatures, heavier downpours, and higher sea levels. In three chapters, this dissertation examines the potential impacts of climate change and evaluates different adaptation strategies. In my first chapter, I focus on high-tide floods, an emerging consequence of sea level rise, and provide novel quantitative estimates of how these recurrent floods affect local economic activity. My second chapter analyzes managed retreat, the relocation of people and infrastructure away from hazardous places to reduce risk. I synthesize global experience with managed retreat and identify associated drivers and barriers. In the final chapter, I conduct the first national evaluation of the effect of flood risk maps on property values, uncovering how real estate disclosure laws, insurance prices, and flood damage influence the extent to which markets price flood risk. In sum, the empirical findings of this dissertation contribute to evidence-based decision-making for climate change adaptation.
