This section will explore why some of the many definitions that exist for vulnerability, resilience and related terms, evolving over time and in different disciplines (e.g. climate change) can be applied in such a framework. This report will not, however, go into detail regarding the diversity of different concepts and applications that can exist across scientific and social science disciplines but will use the core concepts of vulnerability as a framework for outlining more sustainable water resource management in relation to ecosystem services.

The first part of this chapter is about freshwater ecosystem services, followed by a section on the vulnerability of water resources. The last section looks at relevant pressures for water resource management and how this affects the freshwater ecosystem services.
