Assessing climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies and agricultural innovation systems in the Niger Delta [PDF]

open access: yesGeoJournal, 2022
Climate change and its impacts on agriculture have been widely discussed at national and global levels. An important aspect of the discussion has been adaptation/mitigation approaches. Consequently, several strategies have been suggested as measures to ensure agriculture remains productively profitable.

Dome effect of black carbon and its key influencing factors: a one-dimensional modelling study [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
Black carbon (BC) has been identified to play a critical role in aerosol–planetary boundary layer (PBL) interaction and further deterioration of near-surface air pollution in megacities, which has been referred to as the dome effect.

Aerosol optical properties at SORPES in Nanjing, east China [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
Aerosol optical properties (AOPs) and supporting parameters – particle number size distributions, PM2.5 mass concentrations, and the concentrations of trace gases (NOx and NOy) – were measured at SORPES, a regional background station in Nanjing, China

Enabling Systems Innovation in Climate Change Adaptation: Exploring the Role for MEL [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
AbstractTraditional monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) approaches, methods, and tools no longer reflect the dynamic complexity of the severe (or “super-wicked”) problems that define the Anthropocene: climate change, environmental degradation, and global pandemics. In late 2019, the Adaptation Fund’s Technical Evaluation Reference Group (AF-TERG)

Two years of online measurement of fine particulate nitrate in the western Yangtze River Delta: influences of thermodynamics and N2O5 hydrolysis [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
Particulate nitrate contributes a large fraction of secondary aerosols. Despite understanding of its important role in regional air quality and global climate, long-term continuous measurements are rather limited in China.

Shaping agricultural innovation systems responsive to food insecurity and climate change [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, 2011
AbstractClimate change and variability present new challenges for agriculture, particularly for smallholder farmers who continue to be the mainstay of food production in developing countries. Recent global food crises have exposed the structural vulnerability of globalized agri‐food systems, highlighting climate change as just one of a complex set of ...

Transforming Food Systems Under Climate Change through Innovation

open access: yes, 2023
Our food systems have performed well in the past, but they are failing us in the face of climate change and other challenges. This book tells the story of why food system transformation is needed, how it can be achieved and how research can be a catalyst for change.

The important roles of surface tension and growth rate in the contribution of new particle formation (NPF) to cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) number concentration: evidence from field measurements in southern China [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
The contribution of new particle formation (NPF) to cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) number concentration (NCCN) varies largely under different environments and depends on several key factors such as formation rate (J), growth rate (GR), distribution of ...
