人们越来越有兴趣将适应和缓解措施结合起来,为气候变化提供双赢的解决方案。农林复合系统在适应和缓解之间提供了令人信服的协同效应。本文回顾了有关树木和农林复合系统如何提高小农适应气候风险能力的各种研究的经验证据。农林复合系统通过更有效地利用水、改善小气候、提高土壤生产力和养分循环、控制病虫害、提高农业生产力、多样化和增加农业收入,同时封存碳,从而提高小农的复原力。尽管这些似乎非常有希望,但在农场和景观规模上可能都会出现权衡。(C)2014 John Wiley&Sons,Ltd.
There is increasing interest to combine adaptation and mitigation measures that provide win-win solutions to climate change. Agroforestry systems offer compelling synergies between adaptation and mitigation. This article reviews the empirical evidence from various studies on how trees and agroforestry systems enhance smallholders' capacity to adapt to climate risks. Agroforestry systems improve resilience of smallholder farmers through more efficient water utilization, improved microclimate, enhanced soil productivity and nutrient cycling, control of pests and diseases, improved farm productivity, and diversified and increased farm income while at the same time sequestering carbon. Although these seems very promising, tradeoffs may arise both at the farm and landscape scales. (C) 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
