Replication Data for: Recommendation domains to scale out climate change adaptation in cocoa production in Ghana
We use a combination of a statistical model of climatic suitability (Maxent) and the analysis of individual, potentially limiting climate variables. We find that: 1) contrary to expectation, maximum dry season temperatures are projected to become as or more limiting for cocoa as dry season water ...

Replication Data for: Vulnerability to climate change of cocoa in West Africa: Patterns, opportunities and limits to adaptation
We discuss here such a regional approach for cocoa in West Africa, where 70 % of global cocoa supply originates. On the basis of a statistical model of relative climatic suitability calibrated on West African cocoa farming areas and average climate projections for the 2030s and 2050s of, respecti...

Replication Data for: From site-level to regional adaptation planning for tropical commodities: cocoa in West Africa
The West African cocoa belt, reaching from Sierra Leone to southern Cameroon, is the origin of about 70% of the world's cocoa (Theobroma cacao), which in turn is the basis of the livelihoods of about two million farmers. We analyze cocoa's vulnerability to climate change in the West African cocoa...
