• Measuring Ethiopian farmers' vulnerability to climate change across regional states: (2008, background): “Copying and adaptation are characterized by a continual change of strategies to take advantage of opportunities (Campbell 1999; Eriksen and Kelly 2007); thus, this dynamism is missing under the integrated assessment approach.”
• How to Track Adaptation to Climate Change: A Typology of Approaches for National-Level Application (2013, background): “Since the 1990s a number of projects have created indices of vulnerability, focusing predominantly on the national to global scale (O'Brien et al. 2004, Brooks et al. 2005, Eriksen and Kelly 2007, Klein 2009).”
• Understanding livelihood vulnerability to climate change: Applying the livelihood vulnerability index in Trinidad and Tobago (2013, background): “First, they offer a reference point for evaluating frameworks for development policy (Kelly and Adger, 2000; Eriksen and Kelly, 2007).”
• The Adaptive Capacity Wheel: a method to assess the inherent characteristics of institutions to enable the adaptive capacity of society (2010, background): “…of climate change, vulnerability to the impacts (e.g. Adger, 2006) and its criteria and indicators (e.g. Smit and Wandel, 2006; Brooks et al., 2005; Eriksen and Kelly, 2007; Moss et al., 2001), and adaptation to the impacts of climate change (e.g. IPCC, 2007; O’Brien et al., 2006; Eakin and Luers,…”
• Adaptation investments: a resource allocation framework (2010, methodology): “Most recent work on social vulnerability has tended to focus on the local to regional scale where the processes which shape vulnerability are better understood, often using a case-study approach (Ibarraran et al. 2009; Eriksen and Kelly 2007).”
