Grass-Cast also provides a view of rangeland productivity in the broader region, to assist in larger-scale decision making—such as where grazing resources might be more plentiful if a rancher’s own region is at risk of drought. Grass-Cast provides ranchers and land managers with an indication of productivity in the upcoming growing season relative to tuner online their area’s more nearly 40-year history. Ranchers and land managers should use this information in combination with their local knowledge of soils, plant communities, topography, and management to help with decision-making.

However, mountain communities have the capacity to adapt to these changes and mitigate the impacts of climate change. By utilizing the opportunities created by ecosystem services, mountain communities can build climate-resilience, resource security and consistent livelihoods. This publication presents and highlights the experiences using Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to build climate resilience in three mountain ranges: the Andes in South America, the Himalayas in Asia, and Mt. Elgon in East Africa. Its main objective is to provide practical information on these experiences to inform NbS practitioners, decision-makers, project designers and managers, researchers and local communities. | | | crmmocservices | Tool | | | Capacity building, Communication and outreach/awareness, Education and training, Impact assessment | Biodiversity, Ecosystem-based adaptation, Food security, Gender, Indigenous and traditional knowledge | Drought, Erratic rainfall, Floods, Increasing temperatures, Land and forest degradation, Loss of biodiversity | | | | Africa, Asia, South America | Local, National, Subregional, Transboundary | | | | Nepal, Bhutan, Peru, Colombia, Uganda, Kenya | | | | International Union for Conservation of Nature | | | | | | | | | | | | | Academics and scientists, Communities, Policy makers, Practitioners | https://portals.iucn.org/library/node/50695 | | | 1.0 | Processed | |

Forest-based adaptation can help address the gaps between current adaptation actions and the adaptation needed for reducing climate-related risks and impacts, while contributing to most of the Sustainable Development Goals and promoting strong synergies with mitigation.
This FAO technical paper unpacks the concept of forest-based adaptation and describes policy spheres that could bolster the role of forests and trees in providing adaptation and resilience benefits. It introduces a set of ten principles for using forests and trees to promote transformational adaptation, which were developed with leading experts from the Center for International Forestry Research and World Agroforestry (CIFOR-ICRAF) and other partners. It describes the policy implications of each principle and draws on examples from diverse forest ecosystems and management practices to illustrate their application in practice. | | | crmmocservices | Knowledge Resource | | | | Biodiversity, Ecosystems | | | | | | Global | | | | Italy | | | | Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Forest-based adaptation: transformational adaptation through forests and trees | | | 1.0 | Processed | |

This has involved:
(i) Understanding the role of marine biodiversity in supporting climate change adaptation and mitigation ;
(ii) Quantifying the protection of blue carbon habitats within the existing MPA network ;
(iii) Understanding how MPA protected features may be impacted by climate change; and
(iv) Establishing the relative importance of areas of the English seabed for blue carbon .
Understanding the role of marine biodiversity in supporting climate change adaptation and mitigation can help support management decisions. For example, habitats with a role in coastal protection could be managed in a way that ensures they retain those qualities and the condition which allows it to deliver this ecosystem service at optimal levels. Knowledge of where blue carbon habitats are protected within the existing MPA network could help inform place-based management decisions to ensure carbon stays locked up within these habitats and damage and degradation of these habitats no longer contribute to carbon emissions. Understanding how MPA protected features may be impacted by climate change, such as sea-level rise or ocean warming, could help identify where elevated levels of management are needed to ensure there is resilience to these stressors within ecosystems. Finally, establishing the relative importance of areas of the English seabed for blue carbon will help better understand where these carbon stores are located and inform management of MPAs and appropriate implementation of wider management approaches across the wider marine system.
Our work focused on improving the understanding of the role of marine biodiversity in climate change mitigation and adaptation. The first step was to undertake a literature assessment to investigate the provision of two climate-related ecosystem services (carbon sequestration and coastal protection), by MPA protected features and developed statistics on the provision of these services by the MPA network within English inshore and offshore and Northern Irish offshore waters. The next step was to understand the extent to which blue carbon habitats are already protected within the existing UK MPA network.
An essential element in the planning of Climate Smart MPAs is to understand the extent to which MPA protected features may be impacted by the effects of climate change. The JNCC project considered how MPA features may respond to four pressures associated with climate change: ocean acidification, ocean warming, marine heatwaves and sea-level rise. | The study found that of the MPA features investigated, nine habitat types played a role in carbon sequestration. These habitat types included coastal vegetated habitats, such as saltmarsh and seagrass beds, and sedimentary habitats, such as subtidal mud and deep-sea mud. The project found that 43% of MPAs protect habitats that play a key role in coastal protection, and 29% protect habitats that trap and store carbon long-term.
JNCC developed methodologies to examine existing data for protected features of MPAs across the UK and presented statistics on the area extent of blue carbon habitats protected and not protected within MPAs. The study found that four blue carbon habitats have most of their known extents protected within MPAs (coastal saltmarsh and saline reedbeds, seagrass, kelp beds and littoral mud), but the majority of the known extent of three other important habitats (sublittoral mud, deep-sea mud, and maerl beds) are not protected within existing MPAs.
Evidence developed through this project was used to create climate profiles for two case study MPAs: The Canyons and Studland Bay Marine Conservation Zones. The climate profiles provide summary information about the MPA, information on its provision of climate change related ecosystem services, and information on the potential response of these features to climate change as a result of sensitivity assessments.
Future work priorities include developing the evidence base on the impacts of human activities on blue carbon stores and improving our understanding of the role of deep-sea marine ecosystems in supporting climate change mitigation. Marine monitoring survey programmes are evolving to include the collection of direct evidence on blue carbon stocks and fluxes on the UK seabed, which will be used to improve the accuracy of computer modelling. Moreover, early detection systems around the impact of climate change on marine biodiversity are being trialled. | | | Case study | | | Adaptation planning and practices, Climate scenarios, Impact assessment, Science and research, Vulnerability assessment | Biodiversity, Coastal areas/zones, Ecosystem-based adaptation, Ecosystems | Extreme heat, Increasing temperatures, Ocean acidification, Sea level rise | United Kingdom (UK) | | Due to their extensive area, seabed sediments represent a large and globally important carbon store and long-term sink. However, the amount of carbon stored in seabed sediments, and therefore the contribution to climate change mitigation, varies depending on habitat type and many other factors. On-going work by the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas) is assessing the relative important of the seabed in English waters for carbon storage using a range of computational modelling techniques. The initial outputs of this study have been used to inform the process of identifying areas for stricter protection in English waters as part of the Highly Protected Marine Areas Project, which is including carbon storage as one of the selection criteria.

Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) | | | | Although UK MPAs have been designated primarily for the protection of biodiversity and not climate change mitigation and adaptation, understanding the extent to which blue carbon habitats are already protected within the existing UK MPA network has helped understand existing protection and potential gaps.
The climate profiles tested an approach for presenting the developing evidence base on climate pressures, feature sensitivity and climate change mitigation and adaptation services at a MPA site level. This work highlighted the complexity of assimilating and presenting climate pressure and sensitivity information at a site level in a way that is accessible to a wide range of stakeholders.
Although the evidence developed through these projects is mainly focused on UK MPAs, information on ecosystem services related to climate change mitigation and adaptation is transferable to other countries, as is information on habitat sensitivity and sediment carbon stores, where similar habitats occur. Methodologies developed for the assessments are also transferable to other countries. | | | Joint Nature Conservation Committee | | | | | | | | | | | | | Academics and scientists, Policy makers, Practitioners | Climate-smart Marine Protected Areas (MPAs): a case study from UK waters | | | 1.0 | | |

| 733 | | 04/04/2023 23:50 | | 04/04/2023 | | 05/04/2023 07:00 | Technical document/report | The Nile Delta is amongst the world’s most vulnerable areas to climate change and is also a main source of agricultural production for Egypt. The region comprises 11 governorates including Beheira – one of Egypt’s largest Delta governorates, and Alexandria– Egypt’s largest coastal governorate and second-largest city. Beheira and Alexandria are facing risks including sea level rise, desertification and urban encroachment on agricultural lands which are impacting national agricultural production.
Hence, this research aimed to explore the socioeconomic impacts of desertification/land degradation in Alexandria and Beheira and propose an action policy plan to support decision-making and policy-making. The research was attempting to address two of the Lima Adaptation Knowledge Initiative (LAKI) gaps (10 and 11) identified for the North Africa sub-region; (10): Insufficient information and knowledge about interconnections between desertification and socio-economic development, (11): Limited information and knowledge sharing on interlinkages with other sectors.
The following methodology was followed to accomplish the aim of the research:
1. Adopting the MEDALUS-GEE approach to calculate the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI), a proxy for desertification/ land degradation.
2. The Ricardian Approach using the Seemingly Unrelated Regression (SUR) to examine the economic impacts of climate change on agricultural revenue (Aggregated from the five main crops) on the governorate level.
3. Assessing the interlinkages between the desertification/ land degradation and socioeconomic development on the individual level through employing Principal Components Analysis on the ESI sub-indices, then running Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) to regress the wealth index of individuals on land degradation, along with other explanatory variables. | A memo (in Arabic) was submitted to the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation highlighting the key project outcomes. The memo included an analysis of the ESI maps, a recommendation of crops to soil suitability, socio-economic policy action to improve communication between farmers and government entities as well as mapping ESI to socioeconomic characteristics of individuals on the district level.
The ESI maps indicated that most of the districts of Alexandria are unsuitable for farming owing to their proximity to the Mediterranean Sea, and the nature of the industrial activity located there. Actions could include modifying the region’s strategy, by converting it into fish farming (aquaculture) rather than agriculture. The results indicated that the highest degree of land degradation and desertification (>1.530: CAA3 (HSL)) is concentrated in the Beheira Governorate, specifically the Qattara Depression area and Wadi Al-Maghra (representing 46 percent) of the total area of the hinterland of the Beheira Governorate. Several suggested treatments are also proposed to reduce the impact of soil degradation and productivity in the long term.
A Vulnerability Assessment by mapping the socioeconomic status of individuals on the district level in both governorates to the environmental sensitivity index found that the areas most affected by land degradation have the lowest socioeconomic status. For instance, Dalangat is the highest sensitive district to land degradation in Beheira, which is also characterized by relatively lower agricultural revenue, the lowest wealth index, as well as the lowest average years of schooling. In Alexandria, the Mena El-Basal district is the highest area that is sensitive to land degradation and is also characterized by the lowest wealth index, the lowest average years of schooling, a higher-than-average household size of approximately 6, and high population density, leading to high urban sprawl in that area.
Therefore, the proposed policy action recommended designing customized interventions for the most affected areas and highly stressed on avoiding the “One Size fits all” approach.
A detailed elaboration of the project will be available as a journal paper to be updated here. | | crmmocservices | Case study | | | Adaptation planning and practices, Capacity building, Climate observations, Science and research, Socio-economic data and information, Stakeholder involvement, Vulnerability assessment | Agriculture, Coastal areas/zones, Community-based adaptation, Food security | Desertification, Increasing temperatures, Land and forest degradation, Salinization, Sea level rise | Egypt | | This case study is the outcome of a graduate student Research Project at The British University in Egypt (BUE).

The case study in the form of small sensitization workshops and community outreach campaigns will help the local community to understand the impact of climate change on local ecologies. The communication and outreach case study will help the state and private development agencies and the opinion leaders of the local communities to expand their understanding and awareness of macro and micro ecological interventions in terms of economic stability, climate resilience and maintaining the local biodiversity. The communication and outreach activities can plan a significant role by acting as a source of awareness, advocacy and policy change.
The communication and outreach case study will ensure an active and engaged citizenry at local level. The discourse will be on exploring the expanded role of communication outreach in increasing the ability of local people of nearby communities to connect with one another, and to engage directly on advocacy and policy issues.
The case study will be centered on local rural communities and awareness and sensitization messages will be used to encourage citizen action through outreach campaigns on local climate issues. | This communication and outreach case study will help the climate activists, policy makers, community workers, development practitioners to extend their boundaries of knowledge and expertise to local village communities for public dissemination and welfare. Through this communication and outreach activity, the stakeholders may be able to connect people, connect communities and connect rural society by involving people to strengthen local development agencies, councils and bodies and thus will help to keep the local democracy alive.
Since community outreach has the potential to reach to the nearby communities quickly and in a cost-effective manner, there is a possibility to facilitate people to take informed decisions on water and climate change issues and local governance. The case study will help us to build trust and understanding to bring change in the mindset of the local communities.
Due to their proximity, communication outreach activities can play a crucial role in creating awareness, advocacy and policy change about climate variations and environment at micro level. | | crmmocservices | Case study | CUHP | | Adaptation planning and practices, Capacity building, Climate observations, Communication and outreach/awareness, Stakeholder involvement | Community-based adaptation, Ecosystems | Land and forest degradation, Loss of biodiversity, Shift of seasons, Wildfire | India | | The Participants:
