TL;DR: A vulnerability framework for the assessment of coupled human–environment systems is presented and it is shown that vulnerability is registered not by exposure to hazards alone but also resides in the sensitivity and resilience of the system experiencing such hazards.

TL;DR: This study suggests that efforts to mobilize S&T for sustainability are more likely to be effective when they manage boundaries between knowledge and action in ways that simultaneously enhance the salience, credibility, and legitimacy of the information they produce.

TL;DR: The usefulness of the vulnerability framework is illustrated through three case studies: the tropical southern Yucatán, the arid Yaqui Valley of northwest Mexico, and the pan-Arctic.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore how effective boundary work involves creating salient, credible, and legitimate information simultaneously for multiple audiences, and the thresholds, complementarities and tradeoffs between salience, credibility, and legitimacy when crossing boundaries.
