This report provides a preliminary assessment of the state of knowledge of the implications of climate change for fisheries and aquaculture in Australia.
Current estimates of the cost of the impacts of climate change in developing countries and of the needed adaptation measures are in very short supply, and the available ones are rather crude. To a large extent this is because this is a very new research area and no agreed methodology exists to assess the economics of adaptation to climate change, particularly in the context of more limited data.
In changing climate conditions, it is the
This paper analyses the root causes of rural outmigration, focusing on its economic and social implications. It takes as its starting point the fact that mobility is inherent in human existence. Livelihoods and sociocultural changes are intimately connected with population movements.
This study provides guidance on linkages between the design of development programs and the objectives of adapting to climate change and limiting emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs).
Today, coal is used to produce nearly 40% of the world
Recognizing that poor communities in developing countries are the least responsible for climate change but most vulnerable to its impacts, the Bali Action Plan calls for
In this latest paper, ICIMOD provides a concerted review of climate change assessment with specific focus on biodiversity impact areas on the mountain ecosystems of the Eastern Himalayas.
Extreme weather events are generally expected to increase in frequency and intensity due to global climate change. They have the potential to significantly undermine progress towards
Climate change is one of the most crucial ecological problems of our age with great influence. Seasonal dynamics of aquatic communities are
