	abstract = {<p>The goals of this work are:- An assessment of the vulnerabilities of  Lebanese marine ecosystems to the impacts of climate change mainly to  sea-level rise and water temperature increasing.- An evaluation of  options to adapt of these potential impacts.- Develop data and  information that can be used at the national, regional and global level  by decision makers or scientific community.- This is also a part of an  International assessment meeting government{\textquoteright}s obligations under article 3  of the UNFCC to reduce vulnerability to climate change.- Species  composition changes- Community structure changes- Assessment of the  implications of accelerated sea level rise in order to anticipate the  need for action. Identification of the types of problems that that  Lebanon has to face- How to adapt to these incremental future changes.-  Provide a base for a more global assessment of the vulnerability of  coastal regions .</p>},
