 It is well recognized that mountain ecosystems and their inhabitants are among the most vulnerable to climate change. Measuring the nature and scope of these vulnerabilities remains, however, a work-in-progress. This note develops an analytical framework that builds upon two existing approaches: The Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC) climate change vulnerability concept and its components of exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity
  and the mountain specificities framework, which offers a set of vulnerability criteria that, are particularly prevalent in mountain settings. The framework also provides a number of sample indicators which form the basis for scalable vulnerability assessments to inform adaptation policies and measures.
