"To deal with the impacts of climate change we must address the dynamics and interaction between science and policy. For effective adaptation to take place it is important to tackle not only the fundamental gaps in research and the uncertainties related to climate change, but to also understand how this feeds into decision-making and how such barriers can be overcome".
