Land use is at the core of various sustainable development goals. Long-term climate foresight studies have structured their recent analyses around five socio-economic pathways (SSPs), with consistent storylines of future macroeconomic and societal developments; however, model quantification of th...

Key determinants of global land-use projections
This paper investigates how climate change can affect agricultural production and proposes some adaptation measures that could be undertaken to mitigate the negative effects of climate change while enhancing the positive ones. The paper stresses the importance of planned adaptation measures and h...
Despite substantial decreases in the rate of global undernutrition over the past few decades, a large global burden of disease associated with deficits in intake of protein, iron, zinc, and other nutrients remains. Additionally, progress in decreasing undernutrition has stagnated or deteriorated ...

Crash-testing policies; How scenarios can support climate change policy formulation A methodological guide with case studies from Latin America
Decision-makers aiming to improve food security, livelihoods and resilience are faced with an uncertain future. To develop robust policies they need tools to explore the potential effects of uncertain climatic, socioeconomic, and environmental changes. Methods have been developed to use scenarios...

Multi-factor, multi-state, multi-model scenarios: Exploring food and climate futures for Southeast Asia
Competition for land is increasing as a consequence of the growing demands for food and other commodities and the need to conserve biodiversity and ecosystem services. Land conversion and the intensification of current agricultural systems continues to lead to a loss of biodiversity and trade-off...

The climate change research community’s shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) are a set of alternative global development scenarios focused on mitigation of and adaptation to climate change. To use these scenarios as a global context that is relevant for policy guidance at regional and national le...
