It may result from natural factors such as changes in the sun's intensity; natural processes within the climate system such as changes ocean circulation; or human activities: Questions (1,740) Publications (900,390) Questions related t0 Climate Change < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10 Serigne Mbacke Coly asked question related to Climate Change Modelling the resilience of population Question answers Mar 14 2022 Can we model (mathematically) the resilience of populations (at the village level) to climate change to see the dynamics of this resilience in the future In other words; what parameters should be taken into account? How can these parameters be quantified? Relevant answer Jamel Chahed Mar 15, 2022 Answer Dear Serigne Mbacke Coly Resilience to climate change is first of all a time-scale dielema: At what time scale should we consider the priority measures to be implemented in order to ensure the protection of natura resources and guarantee their sustainability? () direct and urgent measures associated with the modes of exploitation and development of resources indirect and very long-term implications of Climate Change on the potential of resources. Has everything been done on (i) to decree that it is urgent to tackle (ii) head-on with all its uncertainties particularly with regard to time scales involved, incompatible with the scales of concrete actions? Is it absurd to assume, like for the evolution of species and their adaptations to natural changes of all kinds that adaptations and resilience to the effects of climate change should readjust themselves, changes in natural conditions, which by definition are very slow and loaded with uncertainties? Moral: what are the urgent actions for scientists, decision-makers actors, and active civil societies, and on what issues should scientific; technical, and financial resources should be concentrated?
