“…Climate change studies have broadly evaluated vulnerability through the sensitivity, adaptive capacity, and exposure to climate variations (Adger, 2006;Birkmann et al, 2013;Dong et al, 2015). In this view, McCarthy et al (2001) suggested to quantitatively analyze vulnerability with a three parameters function which based on the three dimensions of vulnerability including exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity.…”

“…Algunas experiencias conjugan las tres dimensiones en un solo índice (Dong et al 2015), elaboran un índice de alguna de ellas (Acosta et al 2013) o sintetizan varios índices en uno (Dunford et al 2015). Para muchos autores, los indicadores resultan pertinentes para realizar amplias comparaciones y para informar decisiones sobre la financiación de la adaptación -aunque sólo sea clasificando regiones en categorías discretas y asumiendo la pérdida de información detallada- (Füssel y Klein 2006).…”

To safeguard the sustainable use of ecosystems and their services, early detection of potentially damaging changes in functional capabilities is needed. To support a proper ecosystem management, the analysis of an ecosystem's vulnerability provide information on its weaknesses as well as on its capacity to recover after suffering an impact. However, the application of the vulnerability concept to ecosystems is still an emerging topic. After providing background on the vulnerability concept, we summarize existing ecosystem vulnerability research on the basis of a systematic literature review with a special focus on ecosystem type, disciplinary background, and more detailed definition of the ecosystem vulnerability components. Using the Web of Science TM Core Collection, we overviewed the literature from 1991 onwards but used the 5 years from 2011 to 2015 for an in-depth analysis, including 129 articles. We found that ecosystem vulnerability analysis has been applied most notably in conservation biology, climate change research, and ecological risk assessments, pinpointing a limited spreading across the environmental sciences. It occurred primarily within marine and freshwater ecosystems. To avoid confusion, we recommend using the unambiguous term ecosystem vulnerability rather than ecological, environmental, population, or community vulnerability. Further, common ground has been identified, on which to define the ecosystem vulnerability components exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. We propose a framework for ecosystem assessments that coherently connects the concepts of vulnerability, resilience, and adaptability as different ecosystem responses. A short outlook on the possible operationalization of the concept by ecosystem vulnerabilty indices, and a conclusion section complete the review.
