Socio-ecological preditors of moose body condition across a latitudinal gradient in Sweden by Gentsch, Regina

“…My results indicate that predictability is decreased by climate change creating complexity in food availability, and that managers should try to improve moose sex ratio and continue developing multispecies management approaches in order to maintain a Swedish moose population of high quality.…”

Mussel farming using various techniques evaluated using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) by Frösell, Märta

“…The two impacts categories are climate change and eutrophication potential (EP). On the farm that is being studied the mussels are being harvested from nets and re-seeded to the optimal density on ropes to maximize the yield. …”

Seasonal variation in fungal biomass : the effects of soil temperature and moisture in a boreal forest by Leidefors, Malin

“…Climate change involves a series of events promoted by elevated levels of atmospheric CO2, such as increased temperature and changes in seasonal precipitation patterns, soil temperature, moisture and nutrient availability. …”

Measuring agricultural biodiversity for sustainable food systems by Remans, R., Villani, C., Jones, S., Smith, A., Laporte, Marie-Angélique, Estrada-Carmona, Natalia, Arnaud, Elizabeth, Dulloo, Mohammad Ehsan, China, R.

“…It makes farmers’ livelihoods more resilient, reducing yield losses due to climate change and pest damage. Broadening the types of cultivated plants also benefits the environment, increasing the abundance of pollinators and beneficial soil organisms, and reducing the risk of pest epidemics.To sustainably use and conserve agrobiodiversity, governments need dedicated, multi-sectoral and evidence-based policies and strategies. …”

Diagnostic study of the maize-based system in South and East Africa: pathways to sustainable intensification and diversification - a case study of Nakuru and Makueni counties in Ke... by Kanda, E.

“…The poor spatial and temporal distribution of rainfall makes rainfed agriculture a risky venture and makes the country susceptible to climate change and variability induced shocks. Furthermore, Kenya’s reliance on rainfed maize production in meeting its food needs and growing consolidation of production toward maize and dry beans has rendered the country increasingly vulnerable to supply disruptions and food shortages. …”
