The Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center conducted a climate change vulnerability assessment for six species groups in the Pacific Islands region (Giddens et al. unpublished). This data report summarizes the following assessments of each species in the deep slope species group: overall climate vulnerability rank (certainty determined by bootstrap following Hare et al. 2016), climate exposure, biological sensitivity, distributional vulnerability rank, data quality, climate effects on abundance and distribution, and life history (see Morrison et al. 2015 for further details).
