What drives ecologically sustainable fisheries? A fishery-country level data analysis using fishery performance indicators
Scenario planning for climate adaptation in agricultural systems
Effective climate adaptation in sub-Saharan African agriculture will require coordination across multiple scales of governance. Decision-makers from local to national scales will be tasked with planning under conditions of high uncertainty, often with minimal data. Participatory scenario planning is a method for devising adaptation strategies under high uncertainty, and we hypothesized that it could also be used for identifying systemic, inclusive, and transformative adaptation options at the community scale, and for highlighting opportunities for cross-scalar collaboration.

Climate-smart agriculture,household income and asset accumulation among smallholder farmers in the Nyando basin of Kenya
Climate change, characterized by rising average temperatures and changes in rainfall amounts and patterns, remains a major threat to rural livelihoods. For smallholder households that heavily depend on agriculture, adaptation and mitigation measures, including coping strategies are therefore needed to secure household livelihoods and incomes. In this article, we assess the impacts on livelihood outcomes, of climate smart agricultural (CSA) practices that are promoted as adaptative strategies against effects of climate change.
