Vulnerability Assessment
Systemof Interest Current Sensitivity to Climate Variability
Dominated by Bungalon
(Avicennia marina)

Current Adaptive Capacity

1. Mangrove Ecosystem

resilient to sea level rise 2. Inter-tidal flats (mudflats) Feeding grounds for 52 species (migratory and local/ residents) and sensitive to high and low tide Sea level rise & storm surges

30hectares Most dense w/in Manila Bay Enrichment of the area 114hectares Reclamation Threatened by pollution(high heavy metals) Livelihood and recreation Exploitation Solid waste (deposited during high tide)

3. Beach

Vulnerability Assessment
System of Interest Current Sensitivity to Climate Variability
Sensitive to high and low tide Sea level rise

Current Adaptive Capacity

4. Avifauna

52 spp. for recreation, leisure and pleasure Controlling entrance of visitors Disturbance from visitors

5. Business sector

Flooding in surrounding areas Sea level rise & storm surges

Business opportunities as ecotourism site

6. LGUs

Sea level rise & storm surges Limited livelihood opportunities

Demand for social services Lack of livelihood

7. Informal Settlers
