Abstract
Climate change induced vulnerability is a complex and dynamic phenomenon, which attracted the attention of researchers and policy makers in the recent past. This paper aims to provide a systematic bibliometric review (1991 to 2021) on vulnerability analysis to climate change, mainly covering the evolution of vulnerability concepts, approaches and methods for vulnerability assessments followed by visualization of research collaboration using the VOSviewer tool. The USA has been identified as the leading country in research on climate change vulnerability assessment. India has the maximum collaborative research with the USA and Australia. Indicator-based assessment method is widely used in most of the research and the most popular scale of assessment is district level in case of Indian agriculture. Despite several evolving methods of vulnerability assessment, each one is suffering from some shortcomings. Thus, integrated and holistic approaches based on the experiences of advanced and leading countries in climate change related vulnerability assessment like the USA, UK and Australia need to be comprehended for formulating various action plans. Further, sufficient fund allocation to local governments and its utilization enables climate action policy initiatives.
