One of the main problems discussed in some of the analyzed studies is regarding the efficacy in the process of vulnerability assessment.
There is considerable literature on the process of CCA in public health, which entails a process of vulnerability assessment; identification of how relevant exposures and population vulnerabilities are likely to shift; and preparation, implementation, and evaluation of adaptation plans (Ebi and Burton 2008; Ebi and Semenza 2008; Ebi et al. 2005, 2006a).
The paper also discusses the way in which the tools provided by the system aim to assist in the processes of infrastructure vulnerability assessment, mitigating discovered risks as well as strategic planning of city development.
To address the need for comprehensive quantitative volcanic vulnerability assessments for all infrastructure sectors, a framework is required to guide volcanic risk scientists through the process of deriving vulnerability estimates.
Thus, CRP is most likely not affecting atheroma build-up but rather the deleterious process of plaque vulnerability and thrombus formation.
Type 2 diabetes accelerates the process of vascular vulnerability and disturbed endothelial function through different mechanisms [S19], including (i) anomalies in lipoprotein concentration and composition; (ii) its association with hypertension, insulin resistance, and hyperinsulinemia; (iii) protein glycosylation in plasma and arterial wall; and (iv) lipid oxidation and proinflammatory state.
Their process is one of vulnerability, courage, ambiguity and complexity too.
"Even my superheroic alter-ego is taking a moment to process this moment of vulnerability," Singh told The Huffington Post on Thursday.
White, a Geographer based at the Chicago School, explored human dimensions and adjustments to floods in the United States and realized that disasters were really a sociological process, whereby underlying aspects of vulnerability due to political, planning, economic, and other socio-demographic processes amplified vulnerability to hazards in the case of floods triggered within the earth system.
This process introduced another level of vulnerability, he told me.
