Summary

This supplementary table contains raw and relative (normalized) data for metrics measuring exposure (yellow columns), sensitivity (green columns), constraints on adaptive capacity (blue columns), and vulnerability for units in the US National Park Service Midwest administrative region. Stippled columns contain relative (normalized) data used to calculate the corresponding component. Vulnerability (two climate scenarios) was calculated as the mean of the three components. Metrics marked with an asterisk (*) were not calculated for parks with footprints greater than 90% developed.

Purpose

The data were collected for a vulnerability analysis of 60 American Midwestern National Parks to projected changes in climate and land use for 2080-2099. Exposure, sensitivity, adaptive constraints, and overall vulnerability of individual parks were ranked as high medium and low relative to each other in order to inform regional planning. Individual parks may examine their raw and normalized scores for each metric used to calculate vulnerability in order to determine which contribute most and least to the overall ranking.
