Responses to Drought and Flooding

Water plays a significant role in the life cycle of plants. However, insufficient or excess of water can be detrimental and pose a serious threat to plants.

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss01:57

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

25.2K
Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

What is Climate?01:16

What is Climate?

18.4K
Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

24.3K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

13.4K
Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Responses to Salt Stress02:02

Responses to Salt Stress

13.1K
Salt stress—which can be triggered by high salt concentrations in a plant’s environment—can significantly affect plant growth and crop production by influencing photosynthesis and the absorption of water and nutrients.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Sociology
  • Indigenous Studies

Background:

  • Climate change disproportionately affects marginalized populations, particularly Indigenous communities.
  • Indigenous Knowledge (IK) is crucial for adaptation and resilience in these communities.
  • Understanding the role of IK in climate change adaptation is critical for sustainable development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review and understand the contribution of Indigenous Knowledge (IK) to climate change adaptation and resilience.
  • To investigate how IK is conceptualized in climate change discourse.
  • To identify strategies for maximizing the use of IK in climate adaptation efforts.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature review of 71 papers from Scopus.
  • Analysis guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method.
  • Investigation of three key research questions regarding IK and climate change.

Main Results:

  • Indigenous people utilize IK for predicting, preparing for, and enduring extreme climatic events.
  • IK manifests in diverse Indigenous adaptation strategies.
  • Two key themes emerged: the need for more diverse research on IK and climate change, and the importance of integrating IK with scientific knowledge.

Conclusions:

  • Indigenous Knowledge offers valuable insights and strategies for climate change adaptation and resilience.
  • Bridging IK with scientific knowledge is essential for enhancing adaptation capabilities.
  • Further research is recommended to maximize the benefits of IK for sustainable development and climate resilience.
