Climate change adaptation, mitigation and livelihood benefits in coffee production: where are the synergies? (2014, methodology): “The approach is based on the IPCC definition of vulnerability (Carter et al. 2007) taking into account exposure of crops, and sensitivity and adaptive capacity of coffee producing families to climate change.”
Biotic attrition from tropical forests correcting for truncated temperature niches (2010, methodology): “Under a scenario of 5 1C temperature increase (the approximate temperature increase expected for these areas over the next 100 years; Carter et al., 2007; Magrin et al., 2007; Urrutia & Vuille, 2009), using the observed thermal niches predicts a 100% loss of diversity over more than 7 billion km(2) ”
Weather Index Insurance and Climate Change: Opportunities and Challenges in Lower Income Countries (2009, background): “48 Carter et al. (2006). 49 Mileti (1999). 50 While our focus is on weather index insurance, this discussion is relevant to any insurance market that insures against losses created by extreme weather events.”
Enhancing the relevance of Shared Socioeconomic Pathways for climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability research (2014, background): “Social, economic, and technological changes and vulnerabilities will be fundamental determinants of future natural and human system risks and responses under a changing climate (Carter et al. 2001, 2007).”
Firm relocation as adaptive response to climate change and weather extremes (2011, background): “It has been argued that while firms can tolerate some variability in environmental conditions such as seasonal changes (Carter et al., 2007), environmental changes that are more persistent and/or extreme can lead to vulnerabilities, especially if these changes are not anticipated and/or if capacitie”
Limits to adaptation to climate change: a risk approach (2013, background): “becomes increasingly apparent and the evaluation of adaptation choices becomes more detailed and sophisticated, there is growing support for pursuing risk-based approaches to adaptation decision-making [1–4].”
Strategies to adapt to an uncertain climate change (2008, background): “As shown in Carter et al. (2007), significant progresses are being made toward the development of (i) integrated assessment models, able to simulate the consequences of policies and measures including a large range of constraints and objectives (e.”
