Focusing on the governance of climate adaptation in the San Francisco Bay Area, this work explores how polycentric governance systems tackle collective action challenges related to sea level rise. By integrating adaptation planning literature with the Ecology of Games framework, it examines the barriers to coordination, the collaborative relationships formed, and the quality of cooperation among policy actors. The study reveals that while these systems can effectively foster leadership to mitigate transaction costs, they face difficulties in addressing inequality and redistribution issues.
