Back to map Global Nature Based Solutions Atlas

The overall objective of the Global Nature Based Solutions Atlas is to synthesize and geospatially visualize reliable scientific findings on climate mitigation and adaptation potentials and cost estimates of various naturaland technically-based carbon dioxide removal and storage options (marine and terrestrial) with global coverage using input from various research projects at KAUST and GEOMAR as well as from various data providers such as research institutes and NGOs.

The Webatlas will provide an easily accessible spatially differentiated assessment of the various NBS and NETs at global to local scales via interactive maps. Embedded, concise information texts provide the user with key information and link to relevant publications, ongoing projects, as well as bestpractice examples, which may serve as a planning guide. The Atlas will be a living repository of data that is automatically and continuously updated. The Global NBS and NETs Atlas addresses political and social decision-makers, who have an influence on the strategic development of our society in dealing with climate change (International Organizations, NGOs, public authorities etc.) as well as economic actors that are for instance in search of compensation options.
