Extreme climatic events are likely to become more frequent owing global warming. This may put additional stress on critical infrastructures with typically long life spans. However, little is known about the risks of multiple climate extremes at regional continental scales. Here we show how single- and multi-hazard damage energy, transport, industrial, social in Europe develop until year 2100 under influence change. We combine a set high-resolution hazard projections, detailed representation...
Abstract In many low‐income countries, agriculture is mostly rainfed and crop yield depends highly on climatic factors. Furthermore, farmers have little access to traditional insurance, which suffers from high information asymmetry transaction costs. Insurances based meteorological indices could fill this gap since they do not face such drawbacks. However, a full‐scale implementation has been slow so far. article, the most advanced projects that taken place in developing countries using...
Collaborative management partnerships (CMPs) between state wildlife authorities and nonprofit conservation organizations to manage protected areas (PAs) have been used increasingly across Sub-Saharan Africa since the 2000s. They aim attract funding, build capacity, increase environmental effectiveness of PAs. Our study documents rise CMPs, examines their current extent, measures in protecting habitats. We combine statistical matching Before-After-Control-Intervention regressions quantify...
Abstract Agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa is regularly threatened by the occurrence of weather shocks. We wonder whether way farmers respond to shocks can affect land use and induce deforestation. Reviewing existing literature, we found that this question has only been marginally studied. Drawing from adaptation land-use change literatures, then expose mechanisms through which push change, or conversely foster conservation. As cope with shocks, their responses cause degradations ecosystems...
Abstract Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are a cornerstone of marine conservation efforts, with the potential to protect biodiversity and provide socioeconomic benefits. We quantified effect MPAs on fishing outcomes, economic activities, material living standards in 24 coastal villages Tanzania over two decades. accessed original data from study conducted 2003 that found no 3–8 years after their creation. Eighteen later, we replicated survey used Before‐After Control‐Intervention design...
Calls for liberalising cash‐crop sectors in sub‐Saharan Africa have been voiced decades, yet the impact of reforms remains elusive empirical studies. This article offers new opportunities solving this problem by creating precise and consistent market organisation indices 25 African cotton markets from 1961 to 2008. The aggregation scores reveals interesting trends: are no more competitive today than late 1990s, 50% production still originates with fixed prices giving rise a type regulated...
In many low-income countries, agriculture is mostly rain-fed and yields highly depend on climatic factors. Furthermore, farmers have little access to traditional crop insurance, which suffers from high information asymmetry transaction costs. Insurances based meteorological indices could fill this gap since they do not face such drawbacks. However their implementation has been slow so far. article, we first describe the most advanced projects that taken place in developing countries using...
Abstract Shocks related to weather variations have strong effects on developing countries’ economies. Climate change is expected increase the occurrence and magnitude of extreme events such as droughts, floods or hurricanes that strongly affect agriculture other activities. This special issue gathers literature reviews case studies aim better understand heterogeneous impacts their transmission channels, well evaluate impact shocks economies, including Sub-Saharan African countries, India Brazil.
Extreme weather events, particularly droughts, have strong impacts on the livelihoods of populations in rural areas. In a context low access to insurance and credit markets, households respond such shocks by implementing different risk-management strategies, which turn are likely an impact environment, particular through land-use changes deforestation. This paper contributes emerging literature links between droughts deforestation: (1) distinguishing responses previously experienced versus...
Abstract Land use changes are known to account for over 20% of human greenhouse gas emissions and tree cover losses can significantly influence land-climate dynamics. Land-climate feedbacks have been identified evaluated a long time. However, in addition the direct effect climate change on forest biomes, recent sparse evidence has shown that land may increase as result weather shocks. In Western Central Africa, agriculture is main source income employment rural populations. Economies rely...
Les populations rurales d'Afrique soudano-sahélienne sont particulièrement exposées aux aléas climatiques et menacées par les effets attendus du changement climatique. Dans ce contexte, comprendre anticiper fluctuations ainsi que leurs conséquences sur l'agriculture constituent des enjeux majeurs pour le développement économique la sécurité alimentaire en Afrique soudano- sahélienne. L'enjeu est de répondre au besoin sociétal développer stratégies réduire impacts socio-économiques...
The objective of this study is to analyze the influence farmers' perceptions on decision adapt climate change in Sudano-Sahelian zone Cameroon. Based a random draw from 721 farm households. This research shows that 98.6% respondents area reported having observed significant changes climatic conditions. In addition, 89% farmers have adopted at least one strategy deal with these changes. Heckman's model pessimistic perception about future precedes change. results also show gender, membership...
<title>Abstract</title> Ethnic minorities often face environmental inequalities, as they are generally more likely to be exposed hazardous and polluting facilities. Despite this, the role of urban planning decisions in shaping these inequalities has been insufficiently explored. The siting Traveler sites provides a clear example how political contexts can exacerbate disparities. To address this issue, we constructed an original database that links French with socio-economic data. Then,...
