Adaptive capacity relates to the capacity of systems, institutions, humans and other organisms to adjust to potential damage, to take advantage of opportunities, or to respond to consequences. In the context of ecosystems, adaptive capacity is the ability to maintain, recover, or adapt performance and function as climate conditions change. Species' adaptive capacity is generally characterized by phenotypic plasticity, dispersal
ability, and genetic diversity, which are foundational to the species' ability to acclimate in situ or track suitable climate across the landscape. In the context of coupled socio-ecological social systems, adaptive capacity is commonly associated with the following characteristics: Firstly, the ability of institutions and networks to learn, and store knowledge and experience.
