Background and Objectives:
Both NOAA Fisheries and fisheries management more generally call for statistically robust, timely information on vulnerability and resilience of communities reliant on, and engaged, with fisheries. Such information is used to support social impact, integrated ecosystem and climate oriented evaluations and assessments. NOAA Fisheries social scientists have collaboratively developed Community Social Vulnerability Indicators (CSVIs) and coordinated their efforts to improve, enhance and adapt these measures to respond to, and anticipate, management needs. This decade-long effort features a set of national indicators of fishing community well-being for over 4,600 coastal communities in 23 states. The development of these indicators has allowed for simultaneous national level and regional analyses supporting both NMFS agency objectives and the goals of regional management bodies. To continue the effective use of the CSVIs in these arenas, it is necessary for NOAA Fisheries to develop the salience and efficacy of these measures, enhance their application with new data and measures that address environmental justice (E.O. 12898), environmental justice as it relates to climate change concerns (Sec. 219 of E.O. 14008), and new metrics that address racial equity (E.O. 13985) issues in underserved coastal communities.
