The conversion of wetlands to agriculture through drainage and flooding, and the burning of wetland areas for agriculture have important implications for greenhouse gas (GHG) production and changing carbon stocks. However, the estimation of net GHG changes from mitigation practices in agricultural wetlands is complex compared to dryland crops. Agricultural wetlands have more complicated carbon and nitrogen cycles with both above- and below-ground processes and export of carbon via vertical and horizontal movement of water through the wetland.

The researchers suggest that many low-hanging fruit for China’s climate actions are already picked. To make further progress, new policies are needed.

China has yet to establish a comprehensive system to track policy implementation and assess impacts. Fiscal-expenditure-based management policies and performance evaluation procedures are implemented internally within the government, with only limited public disclosure of the results.

This study Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment (VCA) of the Agricultural Sector to Climate Change, has been developed based on the methodology established by the CCCCC: Vulnerability and Capacity Manual, A Methodological Guide to conduct and integrate assessment vulnerability and capacity in the Caribbean region (Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment Methodology.

This report demonstrates the use of climate information in assessing adaptation needs and implementation of adaptation interventions.

It provides an outline of the change in thinking that is happening as adaptation moves from theory to practice, how this translates into a different approach for assessing adaptation needs, and the implications of this shift for climate information and services provision.

This Guide provides practical guidance to Pacific island countries (PICs) on how to prepare their Intended Nationally Determined Contributions or ‘INDCs’ to be submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNF CCC ) secretariat.

This document presents a draft impact assessment, and the national adaptation strategy and action plan (NASAP) to address climate change in the tourism sector of Saint Lucia.

The report has been divided into two volumes: which present the Impact Assessment and NASAP respectively.

These include the contextual background, methodology and limitations for the study; present the climate variability and change assessment; and the tourism sector vulnerability issues and threats as well as economic analysis and a policy, legislative and institutional review.

The 193 individual country profiles capture the status and progress of all UN Member States, and the 80+ indicators include a wealth of information on child, adolescent and adult anthropometry and nutritional status, in addition to intervention coverage, food supply, economics, and demography. This tool is particularly useful for nutrition champions at the country-level, as it presents a wide range of evidence needed to assess country progress in improving nutrition and nutrition-related outcomes.
