The adaptation index is a quantitative measure used to assess the ability of individuals, communities, or ecosystems to adjust to changes in their environment, such as climate change or social shifts. It typically evaluates factors like resilience, flexibility, and resource availability. Higher adaptation indices indicate greater capacity to cope with changes, while lower indices suggest vulnerability. This index can inform policy and planning efforts aimed at enhancing adaptive capacity in various contexts.
