Creating usable science: Opportunities and constraints for climate knowledge use and their implications for science policy (2011, background): “The timing of climate information release can also be critical for whether or not it is usable (Cash et al., 2006; Changnon and Vonnahme, 2003; Corringham et al., 2008; Hartmann et al., 2002; Lemos et al., 2002; Orlove et al., 2004; Rayner et al., 2005; Ray et al., 2007).”
Impacts, adaptation and vulnerability to global environmental change: challenges and pathways for an action-oriented research agenda for middle-income and low-income countries (2010, background): “Research addressing disasters and climate change suggests that effective vulnerability reduction requires going beyond current development efforts, adopting a two-tiered approach involving both direct action on reducing disaster risk and fundamental reform of economic and sociopolitical structures t”
Fielding Climate Change in Cultural Anthropology (2009, background): “greater transparency of decision making (Lemos 2003; Lemos et al. 2002).”
The neglected heart of science policy: reconciling supply of and demand for science (2007, methodology): “Given the breadth of potentially relevant stakeholders, such a demand side assessment would need to proceed by focusing on particular challenges or sectors, such as carbon cycle management, agriculture, ecosystems management, and hazard mitigation.”
