Risk management in semi-arid rangelands: Modelling adaptation to spatio-temporal heterogeneities

Risk management in semi-arid rangelands: Modelling adaptation to spatio-temporal heterogeneities

Livestock grazing is the most important type of land-use in arid and semi-arid regions. In these regions, uncertain and highly variable climate conditions cause scarce and spatio-temporally variable resource availability. The major challenge to livestock grazing is the efficient utilisation of these...
