"Significant climate change is expected over the 21st century; it will affect ecosystems and
access to natural resources such as fertile land and water. Regions with low adaptive capacity
due to poverty, lack of infrastructure, services, and appropriate governance will be
most severely affected. Sub-Saharan Africa is, due to its low economic development and
the diversity of local conditions, a region that needs special attention in developing adaptation
strategies. Climate impacts and the adaptive capacity of societies determine their vulnerability to climate change. The extent of climate change and spatial patterns of impacts are, however,
highly uncertain. This report supplies background knowledge on climate change in sub-
Saharan Africa, including uncertainties and basic assumptions of climate change
projections. Impact studies are only roughly summarized here, as a systematic evaluation
of the wealth of specific case studies available would by far exceed the scope of this report." (author's abstract)... weniger
