Adaptations to climate change amongst natural resource-dependant societies in the developing world: across the Southern African climate gradient
The research project 'Adaptations to climate change amongst natural resource-dependant societies in the developing world: across the southern African climate gradient' examines the characteristics of people's responses to recent historical climate variability and change in four locations in southern Africa. There has been little systematic research into adaptation in the developing world: this research both increases the data base on such adaptations and uses these data to explore key traits of coping and adaptation, in order to examine particularly the processes that contribute to the shaping and dynamics of human responses to climate change in a region where use of the natural environment is a key component of livelihoods.
