Land tenure in a changing climate
(2023)
Climate change and extreme weather have far-reaching impacts on agriculture. They do not only affect agricultural production, but also fundamental assets that shape agricultural livelihoods. In this dissertation, I study the relation of weather and climate with agricultural land tenure in low- and middle-income countries. Secure access to land is of vital importance for farmers, but insecure tenure is a reality for millions of farmers around the globe. They are unsure whether they will be able to continue farming ...

Geospatial crop yield modeling for climate change risk transfer, impact assessment, and adaptation strategies
(2023)
Changing climate and weather patterns increase the pressure on food production systems worldwide, significantly impacting livelihoods and economies at various scales. Understanding and adapting/mitigating climate change are essential to cope with the adverse effects of climate change. Biophysical crop modeling offers a unique way to assess the pros and cons of different adaptation strategies because they integrate physical and biological principles to simulate the use and allocation of captured resources mechanistically. ...

Harnessing climate data to assess, anticipate and attribute climate impacts on agriculture
(2024)
Human-induced climate change already impacts agriculture and food security, with varying impacts on regions, communities and individuals. There is an urgent need to increase agricultural resilience to ensure food security for a growing world population under humaninduced climate change. Climate data is a necessary resource not only to better understand climate impacts but also to manage and minimise current and future negative climate impacts on agriculture. However, there are large uncertainties in observations of ...
