Vulnerability Assessment of Major Wetlands in the Asia-Pacific Region

The project involved assessing the vulnerability of two important coastal wetland sites to climate change and sea level rise. The two sites chosen were Yellow River Delta, China, and Olango Island, Philippines. The project involved a researcher from both sites working at ERISS (Jabiru, northern Australia) for one month to learn about vulnerability assessment procedures and to commence the vulnerability assessment for the China/Philippines sites.
