Global warming increases the risk of crop yield failures driven by climate oscillations
Crop models for future food systems
Anthropogenic and natural influence on vegetation ecosystems from 1982 to 2023
Vegetation greening trends are a critical and direct indicator to reflect photosynthetic activity of plants at the ecosystem scale. The monitoring of vegetation greening is crucial for assessing ecosystem health, sustaining biodiversity, improving soil health, and providing direction for effective environmental management. However, long-term changes in greening trends are rarely reported due to radiometric inconsistencies among different satellit…
Gender-Sensitive Approaches Improve Characterisation of Resilience in African Pastoral Systems
Strategies for improving resilience in African pastoral systems face increasing scrutiny, particularly in the context of climate shocks. Here, we explore the influence of gender dynamics in relation to resilience of dryland socio-ecological systems and pastoralist communities in northern Kenya. The findings challenge contemporary perspectives of women’s adaptive capacity and traditional gender roles, highlighting women’s nuanced understanding of …
Carbon, cash, cattle and the climate crisis
While society increasingly demands emissions abatement from the livestock sector, farmers are concurrently being forced to adapt to an existential climate crisis. Here, we examine how stacking together multiple systems adaptations impacts on the productivity, profitability and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of livestock production systems under future climates underpinned by more frequent extreme weather events. Without adaptation, we reveal that…
Earlier crop flowering caused by global warming alleviated by irrigation
Enabling crop flowering within an optimal calendar window minimises long-term risk of abiotic stress exposure, improving prospects for attaining potential yield. Here, we define the optimal flowering period (OFP) as the calendar time in which long-term risk of frost, water and heat stress are collectively minimised. Using the internationally-renowned farming systems model Agricultural Systems Production Systems sIMulator, we characterised combine…
Improving acceptance of natural capital accounting in land use decision making
Environmental issues are becoming more urgent. Biodiversity loss, climate change, extreme events and global pressures on resources place increasing importance on decision making about how natural resources should be managed. Natural capital accounting (NCA) is gaining popularity as a systematic approach to recognise the full value of natural resources such as soil, vegetation, animals, water, and biodiversity. To understand perceptions and opport…
Climate change shifts forward flowering and reduces crop waterlogging stress
Climate change will drive increased frequencies of extreme climatic events. Despite this, there is little scholarly information on the extent to which waterlogging caused by extreme rainfall events will impact on crop physiological behaviour. To improve the ability to reliably model crop growth and development under soil waterlogging stress, we advanced the process-basis of waterlogging in the farming systems model Agricultural Systems Production…
