SES-1030395PI: Roger L. MooreCo-PI: Jordan W. SmithInstitution: North Carolina State UniversityThis research analyzes individuals' perceived ability to adapt to changing climatic conditions. At issue is how individuals' perceived resilience is affected by social, economic, and environmental contexts. It is suggested that individuals' ability to adapt to changing climatic conditions is limited by both economic and social-psychological dependencies. Additionally, the hypothesis is presented that the dependence/adaptation relationship is influenced by the characteristics of individuals' social networks. The role social networks play in the dependence/adaptation relationship is tested through three mixed-methods case studies in rural, resource dependent communities within the Southeast. The approach improves the empirical understanding and theoretical development of resilience as a social process. Broader Impacts:By gaining a clearer understanding of how individuals' social networks affect their perceived ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions, decision makers can focus on policy solutions that increase adaptive capacities and build social resilience.

SES-1030395PI：Roger L. MooreCo-PI：Jordan W.史密斯研究所：北卡罗来纳州州立大学这项研究分析了个人对气候变化的适应能力。争论的焦点是个人感知的弹性如何受到社会，经济和环境背景的影响。这表明，个人的能力，以适应不断变化的气候条件是有限的经济和社会心理的依赖性。此外，还提出了依赖/适应关系受个体社交网络特征影响的假设。社交网络的依赖/适应关系中发挥的作用进行了测试，通过三个混合方法的案例研究，在农村，资源依赖的社区在东南部。该方法提高了作为一个社会过程的弹性的实证理解和理论发展。更广泛的影响：通过更清楚地了解个人的社交网络如何影响他们适应不断变化的环境条件的感知能力，决策者可以专注于提高适应能力和建立社会复原力的政策解决方案。
