Orphan crops play an important role in global food and nutrition security, and may have potential to contribute to sustainable food systems under climate change. Owing to reports of their potential under water scarcity, there is an argument to promote them to sustainably address challenges such a...


Mabhaudhi, T.Chimonyo, V.G.P.Hlahla, S.Massawe, F.Mayes, S.Nhamo, LuxonModi, A.T.[Prospects of orphan crops in climate change]Prospects of orphan crops in climate change

Lack of accurate maps on the extent of global cropland, and particularly the spatial distribution of major crop types, hampers policy and strategic investment and could potentially impede efforts to improve food security in an environment characterized by continued market volatility and a changin...

Impacts of climate change on water resources, especially groundwater, can no longer be hidden. These impacts are further exacerbated under the integrated influence of climate variability, climate change and anthropogenic activities. The degree of impact varies according to geographical location a...


Aslam, R.A.Shrestha, S.Pandey, Vishnu Prasad[Groundwater vulnerability to climate change: a review of the assessment methodology]Groundwater vulnerability to climate change: a review of the assessment methodology

In developing regions with high levels of poverty and a dependence on climate sensitive agriculture, studies focusing on climate change adaptation, planning, and policy processes, have gained relative importance over the years. This study assesses the impact of farmer perceptions regarding climat...


Makate, CliftonMakate, MarshallMango, Nelson[Smallholder Farmers’ Perceptions on Climate Change and the Use of Sustainable Agricultural Practices in the Chinyanja Triangle, Southern Africa]Smallholder Farmers’ Perceptions on Climate Change and the Use of Sustainable Agricultural Practices in the Chinyanja Triangle, Southern Africa

About 60% of southern Africa’s population lives in rural areas with limited access to basic services and amenities such as clean and safe water, affordable and clean energy, and balanced and nutritious diets. Resource scarcity has direct and indirect impacts on nutrition, human health, and well-b...

Despite the considerable progress made in the last decade towards building governance systems for climate change adaptation in Africa, implementation still limits positive responses. This study applies an iterative process of field assessments and literature reviews across multiple governance lev...


Ampaire, Edidah L.Jassogne, Laurence T.P.Providence, HappyAcosta, MariolaTwyman, JenniferWinowiecki, Leigh A.Asten, Piet J.A. van[Institutional challenges to climate change adaptation: A case study on policy action gaps in Uganda]Institutional challenges to climate change adaptation: A case study on policy action gaps in Uganda

Hydropower and thermoelectric power together contribute 98% of the world’s electricity generation at present. These power-generating technologies both strongly depend on water availability, and water temperature for cooling also plays a critical role for thermoelectric power generation. Climate c...


Vliet, M.T.H. vanWiberg, D.Leduc, S.Riahi, K.[Power-generation system vulnerability and adaptation to changes in climate and water resources]Power-generation system vulnerability and adaptation to changes in climate and water resources

Climate variability and change impacts are manifesting through declining rainfall totals and increasing frequency and intensity of droughts, floods and heatwaves. These environmental changes are affecting mostly rural populations in developing countries due to low adaptive capacity and high relia...
