Adaptation of Human Coping Strategies in a Small Island Society in the SW Pacific—50 Years of Change in the Coupled Human–Environment System on Bellona, Solomon Islands (2008, background): “By investigating how people enhance their existing security or try to reduce their vulnerability, livelihood approaches have provided insight into how the dynamics of social and environmental change are closely linked to local level decision making (Batterbury 2001; Eakin et al. 2006; Warren et al”
A Review of Ecosystem Services, Farmer Livelihoods, and Value Chains in Shade Coffee Agroecosystems (2011, background): “…International Coffee Agreement (ICA), the established pact between producing and consuming countries that controlled global inventory and prices, resulted in the dumping of warehoused stocks into the market and causing prices to plummet in the early 1990s (Eakin et al. 2006; Varangis et al. 2003).”
Linking local vulnerability to system sustainability in a resilience framework: two cases from Latin America (2009, background): “Overall, the majority of households (86%) reported a loss of income in the 5 years prior to the survey as a result of crop losses and poor prices ( Eakin et al. 2006 ).”
Explaining the 'hungry farmer paradox': Smallholders and fair trade cooperatives navigate seasonality and change in Nicaragua's corn and coffee markets (2014, background): “…agrifood systems oriented researchers often study the relationships linking certified fair trade, shade grown, and organic coffee markets to Latin American landscapes and communities (Rice, 2001; Raynolds, 2000; Mutersbaugh, 2004; Eakin et al., 2006; Giovannucci and Ponte, 2005; Goodman, 2004).”
Tree species diversity and vegetation structure in shade coffee farms in Veracruz, Mexico (2008, background): “Given their enhanced vulnerability to the current coffee crises (Eakin et al., 2006), studies of shade coffee canopies in this biodiversity rich state (CONABIO, 1998) may be particularly relevant to regional and national conservation efforts.”
Social identity, perception and motivation in adaptation to climate risk in the coffee sector of Chiapas, Mexico (2011, background): “The vulnerability of coffee farmers to climate stress is associated with the economic and geographic marginality of the farm households, as well as the direct sensitivity of the crop to climate stress (Eakin et al., 2006).”
Cognitive and institutional influences on farmers’ adaptive capacity: insights into barriers and opportunities for transformative change in central Arizona (2016, background): “…evidence suggests that the beliefs and attitudes of individual farmers about their future livelihood viability or obsolescence may be more strongly influenced by institutional, political and economic factors than by perceptions and experience of environmental change (Eakin et al. 2006, 2010).”
