TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the preferences of harvesters across alternative farm management scenarios in four villages located in the mopane woodlands of rural Zimbabwe and conclude that design specifications need to respond to socio-ecological variability and significant household investment constraints in order for the technology to be adopted by rural households living under extreme economic hardship.

TL;DR: There is an increasing body of fire research in the area of global change, for example studying the potential impacts of climate change altering fire regimes, the impact on the atmosphere in terms of emissions, radiative forcing and chemical composition and feedbacks to the surface.

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer model designed to predict changes in erosion, soil carbon and soil nitrogen over time within various agroforestry systems and climatic regimes, was assessed using input data from an undisturbed miombo woodland and an adjacent maize field in Zimbabwe.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an optimistic outlook for community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) in their Policy Forum “Sustaining natural and human capital: Villagers and scientists” (19 March 1999, p. 1855), and they suggest that the key is for scientists and villagers to develop partnerships.
