Climate change and adaptation in Central Africa: past, scenarios and options for the future

Abstract

This chapter aims to summarize the current state of knowledge of climate change and adaptation related to forests in the COMIFAC region. This synthesis aims to assist the Congo Basin countries in developing adaptation options and policies for forests and the local communities living in forest landscapes. It builds on information from the IPCC 2007 report and other published sources as well as unpublished information from the few climate change and adaptation studies in the region.
