TL;DR: There is considerable scope to improve diversity in representation of decision-making and the integration of social interactions in agricultural agent-based modelling approaches by combining existing modelling approaches and promoting model inter-comparisons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maladaptive outcomes of climate insurance in agriculture
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential beneficial and adverse effects of climate insurance in agriculture, particularly where programs target intensifying agricultural production, are discussed and some preliminary principles for avoiding maladaptive outcomes, including specific recommendations for designing appropriate impact studies and insurance programs.
Journal ArticleDOI
How much climate change can pastoral livelihoods tolerate? Modelling rangeland use and evaluating risk
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a spatial simulation model to assess impacts of changing precipitation regimes, and to identify limits of tolerance for these changes beyond which pastoral livelihoods cannot be secured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Standardised and transparent model descriptions for agent-based models
Birgit Müller,Stefano Balbi,Carsten M. Buchmann,Luís de Sousa,Gunnar Dressler,Jürgen Groeneveld,Christian Klassert,Quang Bao Le,James D.A. Millington,Henning Nolzen,Dawn C. Parker,Gary Polhill,Maja Schlüter,Jule Schulze,Nina Schwarz,Zhanli Sun,Patrick Taillandier,Hanna Weise +17 more
TL;DR: A minimum standard of model description is suggested for good modelling practice, namely the provision of source code and an accessible natural language description, and a classification for structuring types of model descriptions is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
An integrated community and ecosystem-based approach to disaster risk reduction in mountain systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed four principles for integrated CB- and Eco-DRR that address these challenges: (1) governance and institutional arrangements that fit local needs; (2) empowerment and capacity-building to strengthen community resilience; (3) discovery and sharing of constructive practices that combine local and scientific knowledge; and (4) approaches focused on well-being and equity.
