3 Vulnerability and Resilience Other concepts:  Ecosystem dynamics: Resilience is ability to bounce back.  Climate change: Resilience and vulnerability.  SOPAC: Vulnerability and resilience are opposites.  Coastal management: Resilience is one factor of vulnerability.

4 Vulnerability and Resilience Characteristics:  Quantitative vs Qualitative.  Objective vs Subjective.  Absolute vs Proportional.  Non-contextual vs Contextual.  Current state vs a process with past and future.
