SUMMARY:PhD defence J. Schlumberger
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: Taming the Tangle
New framework expands climate policy options
Julius Schlumberger developed the DAPP-MR method, a policy a
nalysis framework that helps plan disaster management in complex envi
ronments where multiple risks occur simultaneously, such as floods, d
roughts, and wildfires. The method maps how such hazards and sectors
interact and visualizes long-term risks and trade-offs. This allows c
ities, for example, to better coordinate water protection, drought ma
nagement, and energy transition and identify where current choices li
mit future options.
Traditional disaster management often fall
s short because floods, droughts, and other hazards can reinforce eac
h other. A preceding drought or wildfire can exacerbate a rainfall ev
ent, and an earthquake can make a city more vulnerable to subsequent
flooding. DAPP-MR offers a structured approach to understanding such
complex, interrelated risks and developing adaptive strategies.
Field tests show that the framework supports both models and expert
meetings. It helps connect interests, uncover governance shortcoming
s, and create a framework for action. Although full model application
s are intensive, a qualitative effort is already proving valuable in
promoting dialogue and joint decision-making.

management often falls short because floods, droughts, and other haza
