Theme 1: Adaptation to Progressive Climate Change

I'm a PhD student at the Institute for Climate and Atmospheric Science (ICAS), School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, UK, funded by CCAFS’ Theme 1: Adaptation to Progressive Climate Change and the Decision. I work in the assessment of impact of climate change on agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia CCAFS countries. Other topics on which I work include plant genetic resources conservation, biodiversity conservation, downscaling and assessment of climate model outputs, and applications of the analogues methodology.
