Accommodation measures can be very effective for current conditions and small changes in SLR , and buy time to prepare for more significant changes in sea level and other climate-compounded coastal hazards. However, limits to this strategy occur comparatively soon in some locations, possibly requiring protection in the medium term and retreat in the long run and beyond 2100, particularly in scenarios of dramatic SLR . For the foreseeable future, accommodation can play an important role in combination with protective measures to form hybrid interventions, with higher effectiveness than either approach in isolation . Accommodation can play an increasingly important role where hard protection is neither technically nor financially viable, but detailed studies about expected trends of accommodation are lacking .
