New dryland development paradigm grounded in empirical analysis of dryland systems science
Global drylands face a host of urgent human and environmental challenges with far‐reaching impacts. Improving smallholder agriculture remains a key development pathway to tackle these challenges. The dryland development ...
Socio-ecological System Models for Supporting Farm Resilience: Research Needs, Gaps and Promising Approaches - Public Seminar at Department of Biological Sciences, NUS
It is important to increase the resilience of food production systems in the face of a changing climate, land scarcity, and changing demographics and market conditions. As farm resilience is a high-level system property ...
Farming system models for supporting farm resilience: Research needs, gaps and promising approaches
It is important to increase the resilience of food production systems in the face of a changing climate, land scarcity, and changing demographics and market conditions. As farm resilience is a high-level system property ...
Global Geo-informatics Options by Context (GeOC) Tool for Supporting Better Targeting and Scaling-out of Sustainable Land Management: Designing the System and Use Cases
Sustainable Land Management (SLM) are required to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN). SLM options are fitted to the social, economic and ecological contexts. The high contextual diversity of drylands in particular ...
Livelihood heterogeneity in shaping smallholder farms' nutrient management and efficiency: the case of Ioba Province, Burkina Faso in West Africa
Low food productivity and inefficient nutrient management remain the main interrelated problems of sub-Saharan African smallholder farming systems. Understanding the problems is framed by the varying livelihood conditions ...
Sustainable Intensification: Concept Revisited, Research Challenges, and New Methodologies from Modern Systems Science Perspective
This presentation revisits the concept of sustainable intensification from modern systems science perspectives (human-environmental system, social-ecological resilience, complex adaptive systems, transformation and ...
Methodological options for modelling agent’s decision-making in multi-agent system model of coupled community-landscape systems
This visual-aided manual presents the state-of-the art methodological options for modeling human decision-making in general and in multi-agent system. The options include heuristic, rational, bounded rational and hybrid ...
How to successfully publish interdisciplinary research: learning from an Ecology and Society Special Feature
What are the factors that hinder or support publishing interdisciplinary research? What does a successful
interdisciplinary publishing process look like? We address these questions by analyzing the publishing process of ...
A Web-based Platform for Enhancing Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) in Research for Development - Toward Achieving Development Outcomes
Achieving efficiency in large and complex research for development programs (R4D) is a significant
challenge. In 2015, as a response to the lack of a shared monitoring and evaluation system for CGIAR
Research Programs ...
