Assessing water availability in Mediterranean regions affected by water conflicts through MODIS data time series analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Water scarcity is a widespread problem in arid and semi-arid regions such as the western Mediterranean coastal areas. The irregularity of the precipitation generates frequent droughts that exacerbate the conflicts among agriculture, water supply and ...

Vulnerability of traditional beef sector to drought and the challenges of climate change: The case of Kgatleng District, Botswana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cattle’s rearing in Botswana is undertaken in two sectors: the communal and commercial. The communal sector is exclusively free range and therefore depends on biomass production. This makes the systems highly susceptible to drought. One strategy that has
