Case studies may be one model or construct that is defined by geography or by element such as transportation, housing, water, inventorying greenhouse gases and other environmental aspects, the assessment of climate vulnerability, implementing mitigation and adaptation strategies of a different corpus of what climate change and social justice impacts.

The following subject headings will help refine your search strategies, especially when searching for books and book chapters in UCLS.
Searching the UCI Library Catalog allows you to search not only holdings at UCI but across all UC campus libraries. You can retrieve books, book chapters, see Table of Contents, other formats such as articles, films & videos, data sets, etc by using the filters on the Left Side Bar and saving the refinements. Other filters allow you to choose your format - print, online, video, and whether you want the output sorted by date or relevance. In the Advanced Search option you can restrict to just UCI and what you want searched (title, author, publisher, etc) and format (along the right side bar) and make sure that you check the Library box along the top.
Book collections that may be useful are from the following vendors or publishers:
