This report investigates the issues and challenges associated with
identifying, calculating, and mapping indicators of the relative
vulnerability of water quality and aquatic ecosystems, across the United
States, to the potential impacts of global change. Using a large set
of environmental indicators drawn from the scientific and management
literature, this final report explores the conceptual and practical
challenges associated with using such indicators to assess how the
resilience of ecosystems and human systems may vary as a function of
existing stresses and maladaptations.
