    Master’s Thesis Classification of Coastal Towns and Cities for implementation of Climate Change Adaptation Initiatives in Denmark Submitted by Madhuri Gotety (2016900) Joint European Masters in Environmental Studies: Cities & Sustainability (JEMES CiSu) on September 7, 2018 Aalborg University Denmark Supervisor: James Fitton, Aalborg University Co-supervisor: Peter Roebeling, Universidade de Aveiro Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge the phenomenal technical and moral support extended by my supervisor Mr. James Fitton, especially for accommodating the fact that I had to take care of my son besides other challenges on the personal front. I appreciate his approachability, thorough sense of collaboration and organization. Especially for supporting my presentation in the “Adaptation Futures 2018” conference in Capetown, South Africa. It was a tremendous opportunity and an eye-opener to the practicalities of climate change, in a city that is already severely impacted by this is undeniably global phenomenon! I would also like to extend my sincere gratitude to Mr. Peter Roebeling for his mentorship, support and guidance during the thesis. A special acknowledgement for our project coordinator, Mr. Martin Lehmann. who ensured that our JEMES CiSu Masters program experience was not only an enriching one but also a rigorously practical one. For this, I thank Martin for his overall academic support and for guiding towards exciting opportunities to render this research more visible. Further, I would also like to add a word of thanks and gratitude to the many researchers, past and present, from across the globe whose scholarly articles and theoretical frameworks formed the basis of this practical study. I will have very fond memories of my time here at Aalborg University and will cherish them forever.
