  Title (up) To what extent is climate change adaptation a novel challenge for agricultural modellers Type Journal Article
  Year 2019 Publication Environmental Modelling & Software Abbreviated Journal Env. Model. Softw.  
  Volume 120 Issue Pages Unsp 104492  
  Keywords Adaptation; Agricultural modelling; Climate change; Research challenges; greenhouse-gas emissions; farm-level adaptation; land-use; food; security; adapting agriculture; livestock production; decision-making; change impacts; dairy farms; crop  
  Abstract Modelling is key to adapting agriculture to climate change (CC), facilitating evaluation of the impacts and efficacy of adaptation measures, and the design of optimal strategies. Although there are many challenges to modelling agricultural CC adaptation, it is unclear whether these are novel or, whether adaptation merely adds new motivations to old challenges. Here, qualitative analysis of modellers’ views revealed three categories of challenge: Content, Use, and Capacity. Triangulation of findings with reviews of agricultural modelling and Climate Change Risk Assessment was then used to highlight challenges specific to modelling adaptation. These were refined through literature review, focussing attention on how the progressive nature of CC affects the role and impact of modelling. Specific challenges identified were: Scope of adaptations modelled, Information on future adaptation, Collaboration to tackle novel challenges, Optimisation under progressive change with thresholds, and Responsibility given the sensitivity of future outcomes to initial choices under progressive change.

  Title (up) Uncertainties in climate change prediction and modelling Type Report
  Year 2013 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 1 Issue Pages D-L1.5  
  Keywords  
  Abstract As models become increasingly complex and integrated, uncertainty among model  parameters, variables and processes become critical for evaluating model outcomes and  predictions. A framework for understanding uncertainty in climate modelling has been  developed by the IPCC and EEA which provides a framework for discussion of uncertainty  in models in general. Here we report on a review of this framework along with the results  of a survey of sources of uncertainty in livestock and grassland models. Along with the  identification of key sources of uncertainty in livestock and grassland modelling, the  survey highlighted the need for a development of a common typology for uncertainty.  When collaborating across traditionally separate research fields, or when communicating  with stakeholders, differences in understanding, interpretation or emphasis can cause  confusion. Further work in MACSUR should focus on improving model intercomparison  methods to better understand model uncertainties, and improve availability of high  quality datasets which can reduce model uncertainties.

  Title (up) Valuing the impact of trade on local blue water Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Ecological Economics Abbreviated Journal Ecol. Econ.  
  Volume 101 Issue Pages 43-53  
  Keywords virtual water; blue and green water; water scarcity; agricultural trade; global vegetation model; virtual water; crop trade; resources; scarcity; food; footprints; products; flows; green  
  Abstract International trade of agricultural goods impacts local water scarcity. By quantifying the effect of trade on crop production on grid-cell level and combining it with cell- and crop-specific virtual water contents, we are able to determine green and blue water consumption and savings. Connecting the information on trade-related blue water usage to water shadow prices gives us the possibility to value the impact of international food crop trade on local blue water resources. To determine the trade-related value of the blue water usage, we employ two models: first, an economic land- and water-use model, simulating agricultural trade, production and water-shadow prices and second, a global vegetation and agricultural model, modeling the blue and green virtual water content of the traded crops. Our study found that globally, the international trade of food crops saves blue water worth 2.4 billion US$. This net saving occurs despite the fact that Europe exports virtual blue water in food crops worth 3.1 billion US$. Countries in the Middle East and South Asia profit from trade by importing water intensive crops, countries in Southern Europe on the other hand export water intensive agricultural goods from water scarce sites, deteriorating local water scarcity.
