points for management actions. Understand-
<br />ing the factors that influence vulnerability for a
<br />particular species or system allows managers to
<br />design adaptation strategies directed at mitigat-
<br />ing a particular impact. For example, increased
<br />water temperature is a primary factor contribut-
<br />ing to vulnerability of a species. Management
<br />responses for species vulnerable to increased
<br />water temperatures might include restoring
<br />streamside vegetation to lower water tempera-
<br />tures or trans - locating the species to streams with
<br />cooler conditions. Vulnerability assessments also
<br />allow users to identify where information is lack-
<br />ing and where additional research or monitoring
<br />would be valuable to understanding how climate
<br />change impacts the species or system of interest.
<br />Depending on the approach used, vulnerability
<br />assessments can be used to prioritize species based on
<br />relative vulnerability risk, develop adaptation options
<br />for sensitive species or habitats, identify future
<br />research needs, or help inform the conservation plan-
<br />ning process. For a complete review of vulnerability
<br />assessment tools, approaches, and applications see
<br />Glick and Stein (2010).
