In recent decades, the different impacts of global change have led to an increased exposure and vulnerability of coupled socio-ecological systems (SES) to various disturbances and stressors. Human-induced land-use and land-cover changes (LUCC) are an important factor contributing to the vulnerability of such systems. It is therefore reasonable to analyse vulnerability and LUCC in a combined effort. In this study, projections for future LUCC around an estuary in southwestern Sri Lanka were developed. In a subsequent step, the vulnerability of the coupled coastal system to natural hazards was analyzed based on the effects of the tsunami in December 2004. Changes in land use and land cover are the most important impacts of human activities on ...
