The south of Portugal is one of the regions that will be most affected by the impacts of climate change (CC), with an expected increase in water scarcity. Irrigated super-intensive olive orchards occupy a large area of the used agricultural surf[...]Article
A. Al Dirani ; G.K. Abebe ; R.A. Bahn ; G. Martiniello ; I. Bashour |Agriculture is the most natural resource-intensive and climate-sensitive sector. This study examines the perceptions and attitudes of small family farmers toward climate change and identifies adaptation strategies supporting household food secur[...]Article
Climate change mitigation will require significant efforts from all emitting sectors, including agriculture. However, agricultural emission reduction measures raise specific concerns, both in respect of their distinct climate outcomes and how th[...]Article

Giordano |Nature based solutions are proposed as integrated solutions to transform the current water intensive economic model to a more balanced model, where water is considered as an eco-social asset. We analyse the logic of action and underpinning belie[...]Article
Ce travail propose détudier la variabilité spatiale et temporelle des sécheresses pluviométriques (absence prolongée de pluie) à léchelle de la France métropolitaine, depuis les années 1950 et pour chacune des quatre saisons (printemps, été, a[...]Article
The potential capacity of an agricultural community to adapt to climate change is directly related to several indicators, mainly the initial state of local farmerss perceptions to climate and adaptation, the socio-economy, the space and biophysi[...]Article
V. Mereu ; A. Gallo ; A. Trabucco ; G. Carboni ; D. Spano |The Mediterranean basin has been identified as a prominent hotspot of climate change, with expected negative impacts on crop productivity, among others. Given the primary role that agriculture has to sustain cultural values, economic opportuniti[...]Article
T. Kourat ; D. Smadhi ; B. Mouhouche ; N. Gourari ; M.G.M. Amin ; C.R. Bryant |Maintaining sustainability in rainfed wheat production under changing climate is a grave concern for food security in Algeria. This study aims to assess the impact of future climate change on rainfed wheat yield in the semiarid Eastern High Plai[...]Article
À lheure où lété bat son plein et quune partie des vacanciers a rejoint les côtes pour profiter de la mer, Futuribles poursuit sa série consacrée aux océans, lancée il y a un an, en juillet-août 2020. Cette fois, cest la Méditerranée qui est[...]Article
As recognized by the Paris Climate Agreement of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), local and subnational regions are crucial actors to achieve international mitigation and adaptation commitments. Scientific liter[...]Article
Pollinator biodiversity loss occurs at unprecedented rates globally, with particularly sharp declines documented in the North Temperate Zone. There is currently no consensus on the main drivers of the decline. Although climate change is expected[...]Article
R. Sardaro ; N. Faccilongo ; F. Conto ; P. La Sala |The paper investigates the attitude of farmers to participate in an on-farm conservation programme based on the cultivation of vine landraces in Apulia, southern Italy, in place of the current commercial varieties, as an adaptation strategy to c[...]Article
To minimize the negative impacts of climate change, adaptation is key. There are, however, a range of factors that, unless recognized and dealt with effectively, can prevent or disrupt adaptation efforts by farmers. Barriers to climate change ad[...]Article
Le changement climatique affecte considérablement la cédraie algérienne. Pas moins de trois épisodes de mortalité massive du cèdre de l'Atlas, principalement dus à des sécheresses récurrentes, ont été observés depuis la fin du XIX' siècle. L'imp[...]Article
La région méditerranéenne doit faire face aux conséquences du changement climatique. Ces conséquences sont exacerbées par les impacts d'une population en constante augmentation extirpant les ressources naturelles. Les changements climatiques mod[...]Article
Many approaches have been used to investigate climate change impacts on agriculture. However, several caveats remain in this field: (i) analyses focus only on a few major crops, (ii) large differences in yield impacts are observed between projec[...]Article
This study was designed to investigate how dairy farmers of AL-Dhulel cooperative Dairy Society (ACDS) perceive climate change, the adaptation strategies adopted by farmers to cope with the impact of climate change and the barriers to the adopti[...]Article
Le changement climatique concerne déjà l'île de Chypre et va affecter de manière significative les secteurs vulnérables de l'île. Il exerce une pression sur la survie et la répartition d'espèces sauvages, les soumettant à une sérieuse menace d'e[...]Article
The crop yield modeling remains a central input in the assessment of climate change risks. This study aims at investigating to what extent that rainfall, temperature and runoff could ably transmit significant information needed for analyzing and[...]Article
A. Montsant ; O. Baena ; L. Bernardez ; J. Puig |Aim of study : To assess the impacts of climate change on local agriculture with a high resolution in a Mediterranean region with a diversity of climates. Area of study : Catalonia (NE Spain). Material and methods : Based on historical meteorolo[...]Article
This paper is based on the results of an empirical study conducted on a sample of 103 employees of the Croatian Agricultural and Forestry Advisory Service in mid- 2018. The main goal of the study was to determine the opinions and attitudes of ag[...]Article
Climate change is identified as a major threat to wetlands. Altered hydrology and rising temperature can change the biogeochemistry and function of a wetland to the degree that some important services might be turned into disservices. This means[...]Article
Climate change, the agri-food sector and trade are closely related. This contribution aims at presenting issues related to the economic impacts of climate changes on international trade. The agri-food sector is one of the most hit by changes in [...]Article
This paper presents a systemic Adaptation Assessment Framework (AAF) conceived to guide agricultural adaptation mainstreaming into broader policy domains, particularly, those related to rural development. Starting from a review of the main phase[...]Article
The implications of weather and climate extremes on the viticulture and winemaking sector can be particularly detrimental and acquire more relevance under a climate change context. A four-member ensemble of the Regional Climate Model-Global Clim[...]Article
