The scope of this chapter, with a focus on food crops, pastures and livestock, industrial crops and biofuels, forestry (commercial forests), aquaculture and fisheries, and small - holder and subsistence agriculturalists and artisanal fishers, is to: examine current climate sensitivities / vulnerabilities; consider future trends in climate, global and regional food security, forestry and fisheries production; review key future impacts of climate change in food crops pasture and livestock production, industrial crops and biofuels, forestry, fisheries, and small - holder and subsistence agriculture; assess the effectiveness of adaptation in offsetting damages and identify adaptation options, including planned adaptation to climate change; examine the social and economic costs of climate change in those sectors; and, explore the implications of responding to climate change for sustainable development.

It highlights the vulnerability of the region and the potential impacts on key sectors.

Requires the EPA Administrator to report to Congress by July 1, 2013, and every four years thereafter, on an analysis of: (1) key findings based on the latest scientific information relevant to global climate change; (2) capabilities to monitor and verify GHG reductions on a worldwide basis; and (3) the status of worldwide efforts for reducing GHG emission, preventing dangerous atmospheric concentrations of GHGs, preventing significant irreversible consequences of climate change, and reducing vulnerability to the impacts of climate change.

Some of the objectives of the project are to identify spatial vulnerability of populations during extreme heat events in selected areas; identify the impacts of extreme heat events on the health, work productivity and livelihoods of vulnerable population, to select appropriate, innovative and affordable climate adaptation measures for improving health and livelihood resilience for the urban population with consideration of gender - based implications, to strengthen the capacity of key stakeholders through training opportunities and to facilitate active use of information and evidence for policy - makers to drive the implementation of the Heat Stress Action Plans into municipal disaster strategies.

Within the relevant sub-sections, we describe briefly ecosystem properties, goods and services, we summarise key vulnerabilities as identified by the TAR, and then review what new information is available on impacts, focusing on supporting and regulating services (for provisioning services see Chapters 3, 5 and 6).

In this paper, af - ter a brief tutorial on the basics of climate nonlinearity, we provide a number of illustrative examples and highlight key mechanisms that give rise to nonlinear behavior, address scale and methodological issues, suggest a robust alternative to prediction that is based on using integrated assessments within the framework of vulnerability studies and, lastly, recommend a number of research priorities and the establishment of education programs in Earth Systems Science.

Transient temperature changes are more instructive for the analyses of key vulnerabilities, but the literature is sparse on transient assessments relative to equilibrium analyses.

In particular, relocation and vulnerability reduction measures should be further developed, due to their two key features of 1) reducing the impacts of all floods without reducing their frequency, thus strengthening the resilience of societies and ultimately the «adaptation effect»; and 2) reducing the effects of uncertainty in future climate on the consequent risk reduction due to adaptation measures.

Section 19.3 provides an indicative, rather than an exhaustive, list of key vulnerabilities, representing the authors» collective judgements based on the criteria presented in Section 19.2, selected from a vast array of possible candidates suggested in the literature.

Section 19.3 presents selected key vulnerabilities based on these criteria.

Section 19.4 draws on the literature addressing the linkages between key vulnerabilities and strategies to avoid them by adaptation (Section 19.4.1) and mitigation (Section 19.4.2).

The identification of potential key vulnerabilities is intended to provide guidance to decision - makers for identifying levels and rates of climate change that may be associated with «dangerous anthropogenic interference» (DAI) with the climate system, in the terminology of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Article 2 (see Box 19.1).

Assessment of potential key vulnerabilities is intended to provide information on rates and levels of climate change to help decision - makers make appropriate responses to the risks of climate change [19.

Depending on circumstances, some of these impacts could be associated with «key vulnerabilities», based on a number of criteria in the literature (magnitude, timing, persistence / reversibility, the potential for adaptation, distributional aspects, likelihood and «importance» of the impacts).

«The key vulnerability of a [carbon adder] is the need for agreement on setting and changing the [carbon] price.»

Positive impacts on a system are addressed when reported in the literature and where relevant to the assessment of key vulnerabilities.

Identifying key vulnerabilities can help guide efforts to increase resiliency and avoid large damages from abrupt change in the climate system, or in abrupt impacts of gradual changes in the climate system, and facilitate more informed decisions on the proper balance between mitigation and adaptation.

The following is a selection of key findings [14] regarding the impacts of climate change on systems, sectors and regions, as well as some findings on vulnerability [15], for the range of climate changes projected over the 21st century.

The topics addressed include critical thresholds and key vulnerabilities of the climate system, impacts on human and natural systems, socioeconomic costs and benefits of emissions pathways, and technological options for meeting different stabilisation levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Alternative approaches include using SRES scenarios as surrogates for some stabilisation scenarios (Swart et al., 2002; see Table 2.4), for example to assess impacts on ecosystems (Leemans and Eickhout, 2004) and coastal regions (Nicholls and Lowe, 2004), demonstrating that socio - economic assumptions are a key determinant of vulnerability.

Based on the information summarised in the sections above (Table 7.3), key vulnerabilities of industry, settlement and society include the following, each characterised by a level of confidence.

Involved with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) since 1988, he was Coordinating Lead Author, WG II, Chapter 19, «Assessing Key Vulnerabilities and the Risk from Climate Change» and a core writer for the Fourth Assessment Synthesis Report.

To combat this vulnerability, Cavalry proposed an «automotive cyber safety program» based on five key security strategies:

To help mitigate the vulnerability, the discussion focused on anti-malware, network access control, intrusion detection / prevention, device management, and USB device control, among other key topics.

Currently, the primary security vulnerability to the actual WPA2 system is an obscure one (and requires the attacker to already have access to the secured Wi - Fi network in order to gain access to certain keys and then perpetuate an attack against other devices on the network).

In October, we reported on a new and dangerous WPA2 WiFi protocol vulnerability known as KRACK (Key Reinstallations Attacks) that disrupts the initial handshake between access points and WiFi devices, allowing attackers to intercept data that'd normally be encrypted.

An attacker can exploit these CPU vulnerabilities to expose extremely sensitive data in the protected kernel memory, including passwords, cryptographic keys, personal photos, emails, or any other data on your PC.

By focusing the institutional knowledge and resources of stakeholders on select challenges, GCA will be able to isolate and address key vulnerabilities adversely affecting individuals and organizations all over the world, ultimately benefitting those in both the public and private sectors.»

Also, think about how you can present yourself as less than perfect without belittling key work skills (take a look for Brené Brown's TED talk on vulnerability for more).
