Climate change predictions in Sub-Saharan Africa: impacts and adaptations (CLIMAFRICA)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
Africa is probably the most vulnerable continent to climate change and climate variability and shows diverse range of agro-ecological and geographical features. Thus the impacts of climate change can be very high and will greatly differ across the continent, and even within countries. There is a urgent need for the most appropriate and up-to-date tools to better understand and predict climate chan ...
