Understanding the contribution of wild edible plants to rural social- ecological resilience in semi-arid Kenya

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the role of access restrictions on adaptive capacity and the ability to obtain these important food resources and found that reliance on WEPs is greater in households that report food insecurity, lack off-farm income, and have lower asset levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiscale spatial variability of CO2 emissions and correlations with physico-chemical soil properties

TL;DR: In this paper, a geostatistical approach (coregionalization analysis with a drift, CRAD) was used to assess the spatial variability of CO2 emission fluxes (CO2-flux) and correlate these emissions with soil physico-chemical properties at two spatial scales and at different depths.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using radio and interactive ICTs to improve food security among smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa☆

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the ICT-enhanced participatory radio campaign approach and ICT innovations introduced by Farm Radio International, a Canadian nongovernmental organization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fitting the Linear Model of Coregionalization by Generalized Least Squares

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the statistical properties of the sill estimators obtained with eight least-squares procedures for fitting the linear model of coregionalization (LMC): OLS, four WLS, and three GLS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linking rural livelihood resilience and food security: an international challenge

TL;DR: In many parts of the world, rural livelihoods are characterized by a high degree of vulnerability to climate change, market volatility, and political unrest, and the need to better supplement the development of reliable metrics for assessing resilience with richer and more context-specific narratives is also highlighted as mentioned in this paper.
