1. Adoption of climate change adaptation strategies by maize-dependent smallholders in Ethiopia

   S. Bedeke, W. Vanhove, M. Gezahegn, et al. · 2019 · NJAS: Wageningen Journal of Life Sciences · 145 cites

   Highlights • Most adaptation strategies adopted by maize-dependent smallholders are complementary.• Active membership in farmer organisation is vital for adopting adaptation strategies.• Extension agent’s skill is associated with drought-resistant maize variety adoption..• Increased plot tenure security contributes to farmers’ soil water conservation use. Abstract Climate change is an environmental process that is among the most limiting factors for increasing or even maintaining food production by small-farmer communities in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA). Adoption of climate change adaptation strategies that increase agricultural productivity and at the same time building farmers’ resilience cap

3. Local Ecological Knowledge on Climate Change and Ecosystem-Based Adaptation Strategies Promote Resilience in the Middle Zambezi Biosphere Reserve, Zimbabwe

   O. L. Kupika, E. Gandiwa, G. Nhamo, et al. · 2019 · Scientifica · 92 cites

   Understanding local community perceptions on impacts, causes, and responses to climate change is vital for promotion of community resilience towards climate change. This study explored local ecological knowledge (LEK) held by local communities on climate change trends and impacts in the Middle Zambezi Biosphere Reserve (MZBR), Zimbabwe. The objectives of the study were to (i) investigate local community perceptions on trends and causes of climate change, (ii) identify biophysical impacts of climate change at the local level, and (iii) explore the ecosystem-based adaptation strategies towards climate change. The study used a mixed methods approach where a household questionnaire survey (n=320

4. Assessing rural households' resilience and adaptation strategies to climate variability and change

   Marzieh Keshavarz, Reihaneh Soltani Moqadas · 2020 · Journal of Arid Environments · 91 cites

   Abstract Climate variability and change have intensely affected agricultural systems, which are the major sources of livelihood for rural families in developing countries. Given the fact that climatic events are projected to become more pervasive, it is necessary to address the resilience of rural households and their complementary choices for adaptation to climate change. Despite raising awareness about the need for enhancing climate resilience among the farm families of developing countries, little is known about the factors that influence their resilience to climate change. Therefore, a survey research was conducted in northeast Iran to serve as a case study in a developing country. A mul

5. Urban planning, water management and climate change strategies: adaptation, mitigation and resilience narratives in the Netherlands

   Dominic Stead · 2013 · International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology · 63 cites

   There are few countries in the world where the importance of addressing climate change in urban policy is as acutely felt as in the Netherlands. As a low-lying country located on a large river delta, it is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Its vulnerable position is one of the reasons why the country (and several of its cities) is a leading player in climate change-related initiatives. Although some of the policy responses to climate change are based on water management tasks that predate all climate change debates, a range of new responses involving both adaptation and mitigation have been developed at the national and local levels in the Netherlands. Recent shifts in poli

6. Enhancing Olive Cultivation Resilience: Sustainable Long-Term and Short-Term Adaptation Strategies to Alleviate Climate Change Impacts

   Sandra Martins, S. Pereira, Lia-Tânia Dinis, et al. · 2024 · Horticulturae · 43 cites

   Olive cultivation, an icon of Mediterranean agriculture, economy, and cultural heritage, faces significant challenges due to climate change and soil degradation. Climate projections indicate that altered precipitation patterns, rising temperatures, and increased frequency of extreme weather events will adversely affect olive tree growth, fruit quality, and yield. This review provides a novel perspective on addressing these challenges through both long-term and short-term adaptation strategies, emphasizing innovative products, advanced technologies, and practical solutions that must work synergistically and be tailored to regional conditions. Long-term practices refer to proactive strategies

7. Adaptation Strategies and Resilience to Climate Change of Historic Dwellings

   Carlos Rubio-Bellido, Jesús Alberto Pulido-Arcas, Joseph M. Cabeza-Lainez · 2015 · Sustainability · 42 cites

   Historic city centres have a large amount of dwellings in Europe, which were built to provide a comfortable shelter with the absence of mechanical means. The knowledge of climate responsive design strategies can play a significant role in reducing the energy demand of extant buildings, paving the way for its sustainable development in the face of the rising threat to its occupants of climate change. The residential architecture, developed, in most cases, in dense urban centres, was built using both available materials and traditional and academic construction technologies. This paper thoroughly investigates the extant urban conglomerate in Cádiz and analyses, in a qualitative and quantitativ

8. Simplified climate change adaptation strategies for livestock development in low-and middle-income countries

   H. Bashiru, S. Oseni · 2025 · Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems · 41 cites

   Climate change, characterized by the increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, is the greatest environmental challenge threatening global food systems. Its impacts are particularly severe for livestock production systems in developing countries. In low-and middle-income countries (LMICs), livestock production provides critical livelihoods for millions of vulnerable people and plays a significant role in food security. However, the sector is highly susceptible to the adverse effects of climate change. Climate change in LMICs is associated with erratic rainfall, rising temperatures, flooding, drought, desertification, and a higher frequency of extreme weather events. In part
