  1. 1. Assessment of Climate Change Impact on Rainfed Barley Production in the Mediterranean Basin : The Almeria province case study

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Francesco Saretto; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Barley; Rainfed; Climate Change; AquaCrop; AquaCrop-OSPy; Mediterranean; Climate Change Adaptation; Crop Modeling; Agriculture; Irrigation;

    Sammanfattning : The Mediterranean basin is widely recognized as a climate change hotspot, with climate models projecting increasingly warmer and drier conditions that will impact local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Agriculture will be among the most affected sectors, with harsher conditions for crops’ growth, greater water needs, and lower yields. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Evaluation of Crop Water Use and Rice Yield Using Remote Sensing and AquaCrop Model for Three Irrigation Schemes in Sri Lanka

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Veronika Widengren; [2022]
    Nyckelord :WaPOR; remote sensing; evapotranspiration; crop water productivity; irrigation scheme; AquaCrop; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; paddy rice; humid tropical climate; WaPOR; fjärranalys; evapotranspiration; vattenproduktivitet; bevattningssystem; AquaCrop; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; ris; fuktigt tropiskt klimat;

    Sammanfattning : With a changing climate and an increased competition over water resources for agricultural irrigation, the need to improve crop water productivity using time and cost-efficient methodologies have become critically important. The Malwathu Oya river basin in Sri Lanka is struggling with water scarcity, which threatens food security and the income of farmers. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of afforestation of agricultural land on the water balance in Ethiopian Highlands

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Författare :Mwala Silumesi; [2022]
    Nyckelord :acacia decurrens; aquaCrop Mode; afforestation; water balance; teff;

    Sammanfattning : In this study, I examined how land use change affects the partitioning of water and how soil-plant interactions are impacted by yearly rainfall at a stand scale. Even though many studies have been conducted to evaluate the extent of land use change and the economic impacts, few have attempted to study the rapid farmer-driven afforestation with Acacia decurrens and also disaggregated dry, normal and dry seasons at stand scale.

  5. 4. Climate change effects on the sub-Saharan agriculture- a case study in Kenya on maize growth and adaptation options

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Alessia Signorelli; [2019]
    Nyckelord :physical geography; sub-saharan africa; agriculture; maize; climate change; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change is progressively advancing, and is affecting the entire globe, with some areas more vulnerable than others. Among them, the sub-Saharan Africa, with a very low adaptive capacity, mainly relies on one economic sector: agriculture. Due to its high climate-dependency, agriculture is at elevated risk. LÄS MER
