Integrating social–ecological vulnerability assessments with climate forecasts to improve local climate adaptation planning for coral reef fisheries in Papua New Guinea

A major gap exists in integrating climate projections
and social–ecological vulnerability analyses at
scales that matter, which has affected local-scale adaptation
planning and actions to date. We address this gap by
providing a novel methodology that integrates information on: (i) the expected future climate, including climate-related
extreme events, at the village level; (ii) an ecological assessment of the impacts of these climate forecasts on coral reefs; and (iii) the social adaptive capacity of the artisanal fishers, to create an integrated vulnerability assessment on coastal communities in five villages in Papua New Guinea.
