摘要

不同人类群落对气候变率的时空影响及应对策略存在差异。该研究以津巴布韦东南部Chiredzi区的Malipati社区为重点,分析了气候变化的影响以及当地社区采取的应对策略。2018年5月至6月期间,在马里帕蒂社区15区的5个村庄收集了数据,通过焦点小组讨论、问卷调查和关键信息者访谈,共涉及133名参与者。结果显示,1990年至2018年期间,牲畜死亡率有所上升,相比之下,作物产量没有显著变化。此外,该研究还表明,当地社区对气候变化适应性应对策略,特别是小谷物生产的负面看法。有必要采取其他创新战略,使社区能够不断缓冲气候变化的影响,包括使经济活动多样化。

Climate Variability Impacts and Coping Strategies in Malipati Communal Area, Chiredzi District, Southeast Zimbabwe
The spatial-temporal impacts and coping strategies to climate variability vary across human communities. Focusing on Malipati Communal Area in Chiredzi District, southeast Zimbabwe, the study analysed the impacts of climate variability and coping strategies adopted by local communities. Data were collected between May and June 2018 in five (5) villages in Ward 15 of Malipati Communal Area, where a total of 133 participants were involved through focus group discussions, questionnaires, and key informant interviews. The results showed an increase in livestock mortality and in contrast no significant changes in crop yields between 1990 and 2018. Further, the study established that local communities have negative perceptions towards the adaptive coping strategies to climate change, especially on the production of small grains. There is a need for other innovative strategies to enable communities to continuously buffer the impacts of climate variability inclusive of diversifying economic activities.

期刊介绍: The main aim of the International Journal of Ecology & Development (IJED) is to publish refereed, well-written original research articles, and studies that describe the latest research and developments in ecology and development. It also covers the many potential applications and connections to other areas of Ecological Science, economics and technology such as the use and development of mathematics/statistics in ecology or use and development of economics for ecology & development or inter-disciplinary nature of applications for Ecology & Development. International Journal of Ecology and Development is published three issues in a year in Winter, Summer and Fall.
