What induced farmers to protect and manage on-farm tree natural regeneration in Nigerien Dryland?
During the second half of the 20th century the Sahel experienced one of the most striking shifts in climate known globally since instrumental records began to be kept-from anomalously abundant rains in the 1950's and 1960's ...
Ecosystem management can mitigate vegetation shifts induced byclimate change in West Africa
tThe welfare of people in the tropics and sub-tropics strongly depends on goods and services that savannaecosystems supply, such as food and livestock production, fuel wood, and climate regulation. Flows ofthese services ...

Parklands for buffering climate risk and sustaining agricultural production in the Sahel of West Africa
In the Sahelian zone of West Africa, crops grown under a
discontinuous cover of scattered trees dominate many
landscapes and constitute the so-called parklands. These
systems reflect the ecological knowledge of the farmers ...
Impacts des aménagements à courbes de niveaux (ACN) végétalisés ou non sur l’amélioration de la charge en eau du sol dans les Cercles de Koutiala et Yorosso, Mali.
In the Sahelian zones, climate change results in insufficient rainfall, which is poorly distributed
in time and space, and a decline in soil fertility mainly due to erosion and over-exploitation.
This study is based on ...
