A Vulnerability Assessment Framework for Cultural Heritage Sites:The Case of the Roman Ruins of Tróia
摘要This article contributes to developing an indicator-based vulnerability assessment framework for cultural heritage sites.It provides a vulnerability index for heritage sites potentially exposed to multiple hazards,including sudden-onset and slow-onset hazards,while considering climate change influences.Through determining particular criteria and indicators,the Cultural Heritage Vulnerability Index incorporates structural and non-structural factors of the heritage site and its local and national settings.The assessment procedure was applied to the case of the Roman Ruins of Tróia in Portugal.The findings highlight those areas of sensitivity(e.g.,the existing deterioration patterns and types of foundation)and coping and adaptive capacities(e.g.,institutional setting and response plan)that significantly contribute to the level of vulnerability and risk.The results of vulnerability assessment will further enable determining priorities and developing risk mitigation and preparedness measures,in particular reducing structural sensitivity and promoting coping capacities.
