Ecosystem-based adaptation for smallholder farmers: Definitions, opportunities and constraints [PDF]

open access: yesAgriculture, 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

Ecosystem-based Adaptation: A review of the constraints [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Policy, 2018
Abstract In the international climate policy arena, Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) has become the preferred adaptation approach to climate change in the least developed and developing countries. Its perceived strength lies in the premise that adaptation strategies need to address both ecosystems and livelihoods simultaneously, given these are ...

Ecosystem-based adaptation in cities

2021
Extreme weather events like heavy rainfall and heat waves will likely increase in intensity and frequency due to climate change. As the impacts of these extremes are particularly prominent in urban agglomerations, cities face an urgent need to develop adaptation strategies.

Indicators to measure the climate change adaptation outcomes of ecosystem-based adaptation [PDF]

open access: yesClimatic Change, 2019
Abstract Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) is the use of biodiversity and ecosystem services as part of a strategy to help people adapt to climate change. Despite the potential of EbA to provide adaptation benefits, there is a lack of consensus on how to measure the success of this approach.

Ecosystem-based solutions for disaster risk reduction: Lessons from European applications of ecosystem-based adaptation measures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction, 2018
Disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation are connected through a common goal: reducing the impacts of extreme events and increasing resilience to disasters, particularly among vulnerable populations. By coordinating adaptation and disaster risk management policies, multiple benefits can be achieved.

Conceptualization and implementation of ecosystems-based adaptation

Climatic Change, 2017
While ecosystems-based adaptation (EbA) has been received with great interest, the requirements for EbA implementation and its precise benefits under future climate change are unclear. Furthermore, EbA’s overlap with environmental, and development policy agendas leads to ambiguity regarding what actions fall under the rubric of EbA.

On the development of urban adaptation strategies using ecosystem-based approaches to adaptation

2015 Smart Cities Symposium Prague (SCSP), 2015
Selected aspects of currently running project UrbanAdapt are described. The project deals with the adaptation of cities on changing climatic conditions. The main project objective is to start the process of preparation of cities adaptation strategies, developing adaptation scenarios and testing the effects and benefits of particular measures ...
