1 Mapping Climate Change Vulnerability in Southeast Asia Its relevance and application at the local level Arief Anshory Yusuf y EEPSEA/Padjadjaran University
2 The mapping in a nutshell Quantify the climate change vulnerability of 590 sub-national regions in 7 SEA countries. Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia Each region s exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity is assessed Exposure is based on 5 climatic hazards risk Sensitivity is based on population density and ecosystem sensitivity Adaptive capacity is based on 10 socio-economic variables Most of the data used is publicly available Impact and lessons learned The map received extensive attention, and follow-up works (local level studies) is on going A picture is worth a thousand words, a map is worth a million words.
3 CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
4 CLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITY MAPPING Climatic Hazards Vulnerability to CLIMATE CHANGE IPCC FRAMEWORK
5 Conceptual Framework EXPOSURE Potential Impact SENSITIVITY Vulnerability Adaptive Capacity
6 Conceptual Framework Yohe and Tol (2002) ( + ) ( + ) V = f(e(a),s(a)) ( - ) ( - ) A = A(D 1,..,D n ) V = Vulnerability E = Exposure S = Sensitivity D = Determinants of Adaptive Capacity
7 Vulnerability The degree to which a system is susceptible to, or unable to cope with the adverse effects of climate change, including climate variability and extremes.
8 Exposure Exposure refers to the exposure of a system of interest to stimuli that act on that system. This can be readily conceptualised as climate variability and/or the various changes in the climate system that are often of concern to stakeholders: temperature increases, rainfall variability and change (including extremes), or changes in the frequency or intensity of tropical cyclones.
9 Sensitivity Sensitivity refers to the responsiveness of a system to climate hazards. This is often represented conceptually as a dose-response model the more sensitive a system, the larger the rate or magnitude of an adverse response to a given hazard. Sensitivity may vary considerably from one system, sector or population to another.
10 Adaptive Capacity The ability of a system to adjust to climate change (including climate variability and extremes), to moderate the potential damage from it, to take advantage of its opportunities, or to cope with its consequences
11 Vulnerability The degree to which a system is susceptible to, or unable to cope with the adverse effects of climate change, including climate variability and extremes. What is the system in EEPSEA mapping? The system is the unit of analysis (UoA).
12 The system or UoA in EEPSEA Mapping A system (UoA) is sub-national region with a spatial administrative boundaries. District in IND, Provinces in PHIL.
13 The system in your mapping can be Illustration in ArcGIS Village
14 Exposure and Sensitivity EXPOSURE SENSITIVITY Potential Impact Both provinces have similar exposure to typhoon, but do they have similar impact? Aurora Pangasinan
15 Exposure and Sensitivity EXPOSURE SENSITIVITY Potential Impact Pangasinan is more sensitive as it has more people, its potential adverse impact is higher Aurora Pangasinan
16 Exposure and Sensitivity Exposure Sensitivity Heat wave % population > 65 yrs old % population < 4 yrs old Drought Extent of agriculture Landslide Population density Sea level lrise Et Extentt of coastal structure t Population density Et Extent tof flow-land l agriculture

31 ADAPTIVE CAPACITY
32 Adaptive Capacity The ability of a system to adjust to climate change (including climate variability and extremes), to moderate the potential damage from it, to take advantage of its opportunities, or to cope with its consequences
33 IPCC (2001) Determinants of adaptive capacity: 1. Economic Resources 2. Technology 3. Information and Skills 4. Infrastructure re 5. Institutions 6. Equity
34 Yohe and Tol (2002) Determinants of adaptive capacity: 1. The range of available technological l options for adaptation 2. The availability of resources and their distribution across the population 3. The structure of critical institutions, the derivative allocation of decision- making authority, and the decision criteria that would be employed 4. The stock of human capital including education and personal security 5. The stock of social capital including the definition of property rights 6. The system's access to risk spreading processes 7. The ability of decision-makers to manage information, the processes by which these decision-makers determine which information is credible, and the credibility of the decision-makers, themselves, and 8. The public's perceived attribution of the source of stress and the significance of exposure to its local manifestations. [ ] adaptive capacity varies significantly from system to system [..] adaptive capacity varies significantly from system to system, sector to sector and region to region. Indeed, the determinants of adaptive capacity include a variety of system, sector, and location specific characteristics
