Z= 4 in the orthorhombic unit cell, space group Pca21 with dimensions, a= 996·3(1), b= 1920·0(2), and c= 788·7(1) pm. The structure was refined by least-squares to R 0·091. The crystal structure of 1-(o-chlorophenyl)-1-(p-chlorophenyl)trichloroethane, (II), was determined from three-dimensional diffractometer data with 2649 reflections by the symbolic addition procedure. Z= 4 in the triclinic unit cell, space group P, with dimensions a= 1201·6(1), b= 1248·1(1), c= 1093·8(1) pm, α= 105·43(3), β= 89·93(3), γ= 109·33(3)°. Least-squares refinement was halted at R 0·048. These two isomers resemble one another. The diameter and projected areas of the two apices and the overall heights are similar but the overall length and distance between the two electronegative centres are not.

Due to the high dependence on climate and natural ecosystems, protected areas ecotourism is, however, considered to be at risk of climate change. This study was conducted between January 2012 and April 2014 in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area with the aim of identifying climate related shocks and stressors and implied effects on ecotourism. Along with this aim, the study assessed ecotourism stakeholders’ awareness and perceptions on climate change in the area. It was found through focus group discussion and semi-structured interview that recurrent droughts, political unrests in a neighbouring country, global terrorism and disease outbreaks have been the key shocks. It was found further that water shortages, vegetation change, biodiversity loss and recurrent livestock and human diseases are the key stressors. Understanding these provides grounds for conducting an in-depth vulnerability assessment and developing adaptation strategies for ecotourism.

This paper outlines the concept and reports on the research issues and the current state of the project to build the prototype data warehouse.

Climate change concerns have increased interest in finding robust yet flexible solutions to help destination communities and supporting agencies effectively respond to change. The development of the theoretical framework and practical toolkit will be used to help build resilience and promote adaptation in three destination regions: (i) the Great Ocean Road tourism destination region in Victoria and the sector that supports it, (ii) the South Pacific, and (iii) Bali. The information gained from destination vulnerability and resilience assessments provide the foundational knowledge needed to address existing weaknesses, capitalise on new opportunities and stimulate long-term positive action, change and transformation. Pinpointing current weaknesses and the scale at which they occur enables destination communities, governance bodies and, policy makers to adjust current practices and formulate and apply new strategies where they are most effective, based on trade-offs among different interests in society.
