Assessing the Adaptive Capacity of Coastal Urban Households to Climate Change (Case Study in Liên Chiểu District, Đà Nẵng City, Vietnam)
http://repository.vnu.edu.vn/handle/VNU_123/1005
The present paper aimed to develop the theoretical framework
for assessing the adaptive capacity of coastal urban households to climate change.
The adaptive capacity framework consisted of six dimensions
and 23 indicators, which were applied to households in Liên Chiểu district, Đà
Nẵng city.
The result revealed that the communities in Hòa Khánh Nam
and Hòa Hiệp Nam ward were the highest and lowest adaptation to climate change,
respectively.
The adaptive capacity of households was relatively
correlated with the inherent capacity of economic, human and social capitals
and external capacity of municipal services, environmental quality, and the level
of urban stability and security.
For better adaptation to climate change, the urban planning
and policies should enhance the household economy, human and social capitals.
The adaptive capacity indicators were relatively simple, but
promised framework to assess the complexity and adaptation processes of a
socio-natural system in coastal areas.
The theoretical framework could be used to study the
adaptive capacity of households in other coastal areas with appropriate
modification.

Abstract:
|
The present paper aimed to develop the theoretical
framework for assessing the adaptive capacity of coastal urban households to
climate change. The adaptive capacity framework consisted of six dimensions
and 23 indicators, which were applied to households in Liên Chiểu district,
Đà Nẵng city. The result revealed that the communities in Hòa Khánh Nam and
Hòa Hiệp Nam ward were the highest and lowest adaptation to climate change,
respectively. The adaptive capacity of households was relatively correlated
with the inherent capacity of economic, human and social capitals and
external capacity of municipal services, environmental quality, and the level
of urban stability and security. For better adaptation to climate change, the
urban planning and policies should enhance the household economy, human and
social capitals. The adaptive capacity indicators were relatively simple, but
promised framework to assess the complexity and adaptation processes of a
socio-natural system in coastal areas. The theoretical framework could be
used to study the adaptive capacity of households in other coastal areas with
appropriate modification. Keywords: Adaptive capacity, climate change,
