• Modifying Social Vulnerability Indices to Complement Physical Exposure Risk Analyses

  Open Access•Lisa Wainger, Matthew A Weber et al.•ARTICLE•Natural Hazards Review•2025

  Multivariate social vulnerability indices, used to compare communities’ susceptibility to adverse disaster outcomes, cannot be combined with physical exposure risk estimates without double-counting some effects and potentially obscuring risk sources. Further, the techniques used to create the indices appear to have methodological concerns, including diluting the signal of poverty in defining overburdened communities, creating conflict with some f…

  Although ecosystem services research has become common, few efforts are directed toward in-depth understanding of the specific ecological quantities people value. The theoretical framework of final ecosystem services focuses attention on such measurable attributes, as a common currency for social-ecological systems research. Environmental communications as well as ecological monitoring and analysis efforts could be enhanced through increased docu…
