Skill of dynamical and GHACOF consensus seasonal forecasts of East African rainfall
Seasonal forecasts of rainfall are considered the priority timescale by many users in the tropics. In East Africa, the primary operational seasonal forecast for the region is produced by the Greater Horn of Africa Climate …
Adoption of Climate Smart Agricultural Technologies and Practices in Drylands in Uganda: Evidence from a Microlevel Study in Nakasongola District
Agriculture is the most important sector in Uganda’s economy, but it continues to experience challenges of erratic rainfall variability and environmental degradation. This paper is situated within post-structuralist geographical thought to (i) classify CSA practices …
