Providing food and water security for a population expected to exceed 9 billion by 2050 while conserving natural resources requires achieving high yields on every hectare of currently used arable land suitable for intensification. This is especially relevant for sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where, u...

The global change research community has recognized that new pathway and scenario concepts are needed to implement impact and vulnerability assessment that is logically consistent across local, regional and global scales. For impact and vulnerability assessment, new socio-economic pathway and sce...

Modelling potential soil erosion in East Africa in the context of climate change
Soil erosion is a serious threat of increasing dimensions and tends to blunt efforts to counter global population growth with increased and sustainable agricultural production. Especially the tropics are vulnerable because of the circumstantial convergence of intense climatic regimes, frequently ...
