An Integrated Framework for Assessing Vulnerability to Climate Change and Developing Adaptation Strategies for Coffee Growing Families in Mesoamerica
Liberia is one of the world’s poorest countries. Efforts to rebuild its economy after several years
of internal conflict were partially set back by the 2014–5 Ebola crisis. The country’s lowland
humid climate and land-use history suggest a potential to increase the production of cocoa
(Theobroma ...
