Item How can African agriculture adapt to climate change: Climate Change Impacts on Food Security in Sub-Saharan Africa: Insights from Comprehensive Climate Change Modeling(Brief, 2011) Ringler, Claudia; Zhu, Tingju; Cai, Ximing; Koo, Jawoo; Wang, DingbaoAccording to the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, warming in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is expected to be greater than the global average, and rainfall will decline in certain areas. Global circulation models (GCMs), which provide an understanding of climate and project climate change, tend to agree that temperatures are increasing across the region, but models vary widely regarding predicted changes in precipitation—with the exception of some agreement that precipitation decreases from June to August in southern Africa and increases from December to February in eastern Africa. Whether the Sahel will be more or less wet in the future remains uncertain. Given the limited agreement of GCMs, the University of Illinois and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) developed a global comprehensive climate change scenario combining 17 models selected for their past performance in predicting temperature and precipitation.Item Micro-level analysis of farmers adaptation to climate change in Southern Africa(Brief, 2008) Nhemachena, C.; Hassan, R.M.Item Vulnerability and the impact of climate change in South Africas Limpopo River Basin(Brief, 2008) Shewmake, S.Item Mapping South African farming sector vulnerability to climate change and variability: A subnational assessment(Working Paper, 2009) Gbetibouo, Glwadys Aymone; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Mapping South African farming sector vulnerability to climate change and variability: A subnational assessment(Brief, 2008) Gbetibouo, G.A.; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Vulnerability and the impact of climate change in South Africa's Limpopo River Basin(Working Paper, 2008) Shewmake, SharonItem Understanding farmers’ perceptions and adaptations to climate change and variability: The case of the Limpopo Basin, South Africa(Brief, 2008) Akpalu, W.; Hassan, R.M.; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Modelling farmers adaptation strategies to climate change and variability: The case of the Limpopo Basin South Africa(Journal Article, 2010) Gbetibouo, G.A.; Hassan, R.M.; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Micro-level analysis of farmers adaptation to climate change in Southern Africa(Working Paper, 2007) Nhemachena, C.; Hassan, R.M.Item Understanding farmers' perceptions and adaptations to climate change and variability: The case of the Limpopo Basin, South Africa(Working Paper, 2009) Gbetibouo, G.A.Item Climate variability and maize yield in South Africa: Results from GME and MELE methods(Working Paper, 2008) Akpalu, W.; Hassan, R.M.; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Climate variability and maize yield in South Africa(Brief, 2008) Akpalu, W.; Hassan, R.M.; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Climate change implications for water resources in the Limpopo River Basin(Working Paper, 2010) Zhu, T.; Ringler, ClaudiaItem Economywide Impacts of climate change on agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa(Brief, 2009) Calzadilla, Alvaro; Zhu, Tingju; Rehdanz, Katrin; Tol, Richard S.
