S.N. analysed and drafted the changes in record-breaking climate extremes in Africa under various levels of climate change. S.H. performed the analysis of ENSO conditions associated with extreme hot southern African summers, and B.W. wrote the draft. W.Z. analysed and drafted the probability...
Land-use change is a direct driver of biodiversity loss, projection and future land use change often consider a topical issue in response to climate change. Yet few studies have projected land-use changes over Africa, owing to large uncertainties. We pro

overall goal of this research initiative was to support research groups in Africa to undertake research that can improve the understanding of climate change impact on population health vulnerabilities to VBDs and develop tools and strategies to increase resilience to climate change conditions in Africa....
The African Climate Change Policy Performance Index (ACCPPI) evaluates and assesses countries and regions in Africa in terms of their climate change policy performance. The ranking is based on four key scores which are: the greenhouse emissions score (30%), the renewable energy score (25%), th...

Unfortunately, there is less quantitative research findings on the number of futur...
Climate variability raises concerns over the future of agriculture, conditions of land and water availability. Therefore, climate change amplifies many economic and social risks, as well as deterioration of the environment. At the same time, non-climatic risk factors such as economic instability, ...
