Sonwa, D.J.Bele, M.Y.Somorin, O.A.Nkem, J.[Central Africa is not only carbon stock: Preliminary efforts to promote adaptation to climate change for forest and communities in Congo Basin.]Central Africa is not only carbon stock: Preliminary efforts to promote adaptation to climate change for forest and communities in Congo Basin.

Forest fire is of both local and global concern. Large scale fires are not part of the natural disturbance of tropical rain forests but this threat has increased in the last few decades. Under global warming, Indonesia is projected to have higher temperatures and changes in rainfall patterns. Sou...


Herawati, H.Santoso, H.[Tropical forest susceptibility to and risk of fire under changing climate: a review of fire nature, policy and institutions in Indonesia]Tropical forest susceptibility to and risk of fire under changing climate: a review of fire nature, policy and institutions in Indonesia

Two issues prompted this review: Global concerns to decentralize and democratize will require more effective involvement of now-marginalized people; and addressing global problems (climate change, poverty, forests, and biodiversity loss) will pragmatically require their involvement. This explorat...

The growing risk of vulnerability to climate change is widely discussed in the scientific and political sphere. More evidence from local case studies emerges that document this risk. Vulnerability to climate change and variability appears most likely to negatively affect poor people, particularly...

Tropical deforestation is estimated to cause about one-quarter of anthropogenic carbon emissions, loss of biodiversity, and other environmental services. United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change talks are now considering mechanisms for avoiding deforestation (AD), but the economic p...

Many studies have suggested various kinds of forest policies, management planning and practices to help forests adapt to climate change. These recommendations are often generic, based mostly on case studies from temperate countries and rarely from Africa. We argue that policy and management recom...
