Climate change (CC) and their related impacts become clearer and significantly affect socio-economic fields as well as public health. Accordingly, the assessment of vulnerability to CC becomes necessary and is the basis for the formulation of measures to enhance the adaptive capacity and to mitigate CC effects. This work aims to review the situation of research and assessment of vulnerability; especially approaches and assessment methods, serving establishing methodology of vulnerability assessment due to CC for concerned industries, sectors, areas, and objects.
