Vulnerability hotspot zones and trend analysis.
a) The zones that satisfy both the minimum area and the minimum number of marsh units are marked as vulnerability hotspots and assigned a number. Lines indicate the 1 km buffer used to define the zones. The zones that satisfy only the area criterion are shown in color other than light gray. b) Contribution of each normalized parameter to vulnerability in each of the hotspot zones. Positive values represent above average contributions to vulnerability with values exceeding 1 (one standard deviation from average) being significantly different from the global mean.
