Abstract
Climate change poses an existential crisis for tourism and destinations. Nordic researchers have been at the forefront of research on climate change impacts, adaptation and mitigation. The review provides a brief account of some of the main themes in Nordic climate change research from a regional and international perspective and potential future research directions. Key themes identified include the environmental, economic and social sensitivities of the Nordic region, the implications of climate change for winter-oriented tourism businesses, and the substantial international contribution of Nordic-based researchers to international research on the climate crisis and tourism.
