Starting from the relationship between urban planning and mobility management, TeMA has gradually expanded the view of the covered topics, always remaining in the groove of rigorous scientific in-depth analysis. This section of the Journal, Review Notes, is the expression of continuously updating emerging topics concerning relationships between urban planning, mobility, and environment, through a collection of short scientific papers written by young researchers. The Review Notes are made of five parts. Each section examines a specific aspect of the broader information storage within the main interests of TeMA Journal. In particular, the Urban planning literature review section presents recent books and journals on selected topics and issues within the global scientific panorama. For the first issue of volume 19 of TeMA Journal, this section offers a critical and comparative reading of recent reports and documents related to climate adaptation in urban areas. These reviews line up to explore both the similarities and differences between the approaches, priorities, and strategies of the reports analysed, with the purpose of strengthening the dialogue between science, policy, and climate planning practices. This first contribution is dedicated to a review of reports on the state of knowledge on climate change in terms of emerging risks, observed impacts, and the conditions of vulnerability that amplify its effects in different territorial and social contexts.
