| 요약 | Climate change threatens food security and rural livelihoods of the developing world. Agriculture is directly affected by changing temperature, rainfall, and associated extreme weather phenomena (heat waves or frost, droughts or floods) that wil |
| 요약 | This dissertation shows how climate change impacts to agriculture differ at local scales in a food insecure highland of Ethiopia. The results are grounded both by local environmental data and by local agricultural practice. Process-oriented crop |
| 요약 | The dissertation begins with an environmental assessment, the mapping of agricultural land, pasture and other land covers of the Blue Nile Watershed. It is important to future environmental and agricultural simulation to be able to account for l |
| 요약 | The dissertation, then, tackles impact assessment of climate change, first, through an agroecosystem approach. It shows that as crop mix and climate vary with elevation, impacts from climate change can vary significantly. In higher elevation and |
| 요약 | In addition to the agroecosystemic differences in yield impacts seen over the 21st century, the dissertation shows that these agroecosystems will differ in their vulnerability to extreme, sub-seasonal weather. The occurrence of extreme, sun-seas |
| 요약 | Leading from this discussion of vulnerability to extreme weather, the dissertation proposes what could be done or improved in the future to create climate and agricultural forecasting information of use to communities in the developing world. Wi |
| 요약 | The research presented makes great progress towards understanding the ways farmers of the developing world will experience climate change. Providing them better information in the face of some of the challenges uncovered still requires better mo |
