Ecosystem-based adaptation for smallholder farmers: Definitions, opportunities and constraints [PDF]
Agriculture, Ecosystems and Environment, 2015 AbstractDespite the growing interest in Ecosystem-based Adaptation, there has been little discussion of how this approach could be used to help smallholder farmers adapt to climate change, while ensuring the continued provision of ecosystem services on which farming depends. Here we provide a framework for identifying which agricultural practices could
