DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-10347-1
Abstract: Climate change vulnerability research methods are often divergent, drawing from siloed biophysical risk approaches or social-contextual frameworks, lacking methods for integrative approaches. This substantial gap has been noted by scientists, policymakers and communities, inhibiting decision-makers’… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.12764
Abstract: Climate-change vulnerability assessments (CCVAs) are valuable tools for assessing species' vulnerability to climatic changes, yet failure to include measures of adaptive capacity and to account for sources of uncertainty may limit their effectiveness. We took… read more here.

Environmental policy and climate change vulnerability in the Maldives: From the ‘lexicon of risk’ to social response to change
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Information Systems Journal"
DOI: 10.24043/isj.5
Abstract: The climate change vulnerability discourse in the Maldives coexists with a pervasive set of critical environmental factors of significance to the socio-environmental systems of small peripheral islands. This implies the need to strike a balance… read more here.
