Läderach, PeterSchepp, KathleenRamírez Villegas, JuliánJarvis, AndyEitzinger, Anton[Impacto del cambio climatico para el cultivo de café en Nicaragua]Impacto del cambio climatico para el cultivo de café en Nicaragua

Global circulation models all forecast that climate change will increase mean temperatures and change precipitation regimes. As a result, traditional coffee growing regions may disappear and new regions may appear. At the same time, demand for high quality, responsibly sourced coffee continues to...


Läderach, PeterLundy, MarkJarvis, AndyRamírez Villegas, JuliánPérez PESchepp KEitzinger, Anton[Predicted impact of climate change on coffee-supply chains]Predicted impact of climate change on coffee-supply chains

Global warming and climate change is now perceived to be the greatest threat to agriculture production and food security in the 21st century. Nobel Prize winner, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) by means of the four assessment reports that have been released to date (IPCC 1990...


Mathur, P.N.Ramírez Villegas, JuliánJarvis, Andy[The impacts of climate change on tropical and subtropical horticultural production]The impacts of climate change on tropical and subtropical horticultural production

The development of crop varieties that are better suited to new climatic conditions is vital for future food production1, 2. Increases in mean temperature accelerate crop development, resulting in shorter crop durations and reduced time to accumulate biomass and yield3, 4. The process of breeding...

Rippke URamírez Villegas, JuliánJarvis, AndyVermeulen, Sonja J.Parker LMer FDiekkrüger, B.Challinor, Andrew J.Howden, Mark[Timescales of transformational climate change adaptation in sub-Saharan African agriculture]Timescales of transformational climate change adaptation in sub-Saharan African agriculture

According to the most recent IPCC report, changes in climates over the last 30 years have already reduced global agricultural production in the range 1-5 % per decade globally, with particularly negative effects for tropical cereal crops such as maize and rice (Porter et al., 2014). In addition, ...


Ramírez Villegas, JuliánThornton, Philip K.[Climate change impacts on African crop production]Climate change impacts on African crop production

This Working Paper summarizes projected climate change impacts on livestock across Africa, using a combination of literature review and some new results on the projected impacts of climate change on the rangelands of Africa. Findings show that there are many options that can help livestock keeper...

Jarvis, AndyRamírez Villegas, JuliánZapata, E.[The value of high quality geographic information on available genetic resources for adapting agriculture to climate change]The value of high quality geographic information on available genetic resources for adapting agriculture to climate change

We present a framework for prioritizing adaptation approaches at a range of timeframes. The framework is illustrated by four case studies from developing countries, each with associated characterization of uncertainty. Two cases on near-term adaptation planning in Sri Lanka and on stakeholder sce...

Projections of the response of crop yield to climate change at different spatial scales are known to vary. However, understanding of the causes of systematic differences across scale is limited. Here, we hypothesize that heterogeneous cropping intensity is one source of scale dependency. Analysis...
