Based on the literature, the overall transformative nature of adaptation across most global regions and sectors is low  . Documented adaptations tend to involve minor modifications to usual practices taken to address extreme weather conditions . For example, changing crop variety or timing of crop planting to address floods or droughts, new types of irrigation, pursuing supplementary livelihoods, and home elevations are widely reported but typically do not reflect radical or novel shifts in practice or values and are therefore considered low depth  . Adaptations documented in the literature are also frequently focused on a single sector or small geographic area . Actions taken by individuals or households are generally small in scope  unless they are widely adopted  or address
