dc.descriptionOriginal abstract: People across the Earth observe climate change and its impacts in various ways. These observations, mediated by cultures and capacities, shape adaptive responses. Adaptation is critical in regions of smallholder agriculture where climatic changes are ongoing. Combining farmer observations with satellite-based rainfall estimates, we show that farmer fidelity of rainfall patterns predicts higher crop yields. Findings demonstrate the value of smallholder knowledge systems in filling information gaps in climate science while suggesting ways to improve adaptive capacity to future climate change.
dc.description.abstractThis dataset has been removed from Mountain Scholar because the associated manuscript has been published with a different data availability statement: "Summary data supporting findings and conclusions are available within the paper and the online supplemental information. Rainfall and temperature data are cited within the paper. Deidentified household data to reproduce analyses are available from the authors."
