Dear Fellow researchers,
Climate change is perhaps one of the major challenges facing the world today. I am interested in studying adaptation to climate change and estimating resilience in the context of dry land agriculture.
I would want to get more insights on the following:
1] Plausible econometric methods of measuring adaptation to climate change
2] Econometric modelling of resilience
3] Linking adaptation and resilience to poverty
Kindly provide me with empirical literature if you can. Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Dennis Olila
hi
I think it's beginning to be choosing the title and choose the research problem and the situation of study and hypothesis to serve the orientations of research with the adoption of the style of strategic analysis Good luck to you
Dear Dr. Pangannavar,
Yes, one of my objective is to determine the impact of adaptation on poverty, environment among others.
Multinational logit of the adaptation strategies against various climate change index, food security status and poverty status.
Use correlation coefficient model/method to ascertain the relation between climate change and dry land cultivation agriculture productivity at least for the period of 20-25 in the selected area. This model may help you construct proper index model to assess the impact of adaptation of climate change and resilience thereby to measure its impact on socio-economic life of the people in selective area.
That's a good one Dennis!
I believe there quite a number. However, would it not be more plausible if you evaluated the economic efficiency of adaptation measures/approaches???
Kindly look at http://www3.weforum.org/docs/GAC/2014/WEF_GAC_ClimateChange_AdaptationSeizingChallenge_Report_2014.pdf
There is a lot of methods and approaches that you can apply. May be you can use some survival functions or duration models.
Thanks Jacek,
Kindly share with me such literature should you have them. Thanks.
Regards,
Dennis Olila
About linking adaptation to poverty, it seems that who can not afford to migrate have to adapt with climate change impacts. Actually, it appears to me that poor people are more likely to adapt with environmental change that rich one.
