New Methods to Assess Climate Change Impacts, Vulnerability and Adaptation of Agricultural Production Systems: The experience of AgMIP’s Regional Integrated Assessments in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
The climate change research community has recognized that new pathway and scenario concepts are needed to implement impact and vulnerability assessment that is logically consistent across global, regional and local scales ...
Climate Change, Gender, Decision-making Power, and Migration into the Saiss Region of Morocco
Studies on migration in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region have so far focused on migration to urban areas (local cities and European countries). Little research has explored internal migration into rural areas. ...
Geoinformatics and Genetic Resources under Changing Climate
Each species requires minimum/optimum area for its survival, evolution and gene exchange. Analysis of
habitat condition, function, composition, fragmentation, patchiness, interspersion and juxtaposition has an
impact on ...
Quantification of Land Degradation and Productivity of Agro-Ecosystems under Changing Climate and Land Use
Agro-ecosystems in dry areas are sensitive to changes in climate
and land use. The productivities of these agro-ecosystems are
highly variable in both spatial and temporal scales. Accurate and
up-to-date information on ...
Land Tenure, climate change and livestock mobility in Central and Southern Asian Grasslands
the conference paper describes the current effects of climate change on Central and Southern Asia Grasslands, present status of tenure and livestock mobility and explores the future effects of CC and potential mitigation ...
Responsiveness of chickpea to climate change
Appropriate changes in the genetic options are needed to cope up with the changing climate and farming
system to ensure food security and sustainable cereal production for the ever growing populations in
developing world. ...
The shift from pastoral to agro-pastoral livelihood: current challenges and future research priorities
Nomadic pastoralism is a precarious lifestyle and a significant form of land use involving some form of mobility within extensive rangeland areas (WISP, 2007). Pastoralism provides 10% of the world’s meat production and ...
Impact des variations climatiques sur la production de l’orge dans le gouvernorat de Sidi Bouzid et prédiction de l’impact du changement climatique
Le changement climatique (CC) est l’évolution du climat venant s’ajouter à ses variations naturelles.
Ce CC est majoritairement attribué aux émissions de gaz à effet de serre engendrés par les activités
humaines. Le CC est ...
Quantification of the Terrestrial Phytomass and Carbon in the Mountainous Forest Ecosystem Using Remote Sensing and in-Situ Observations
The aim of this research was to develop an understanding of how mountainous forests function in relation to forest phytomass and
carbon accumulation in the terrestrial vegetation pools which will help develop options for ...
Searching for adaptive traits in genetic resources – phenology based approach
Phenology is an important plant trait not only for assessing and forecasting food production but also for
searching in genebanks for adaptive traits. Among the phenological parameters we have been considering to
search for ...
