Meta-analysis of global soil data identifies robust indicators for short-term changes in soil organic carbon stock following land use change Open
The restoration of degraded lands and minimizing the degradation of productive lands are at the forefront of many environmental land management schemes around the world. A key indicator of soil productivity is soil organic carbon (SOC), wh…

A New Integrated Assessment Framework for Climate-Smart Nutrition Security in sub-Saharan Africa: The Integrated Future Estimator for Emissions and Diets (iFEED) Open
Climate change will put millions more people in Africa at risk of food and nutrition insecurity by 2050. Integrated assessments of food systems tend to be limited by either heavy reliance on models or a lack of information on food and nutr…

Assessing soil system changes under climate‐smart agriculture via farmers' observations and conventional soil testing Open
Soil degradation remains a challenge in African highlands, where land management lacks a strong context‐specific evidence base. We investigated the impacts of recently implemented soil and water conservation (SWC) practices—farmyard manure…
View article: Evaluating Climate-Smart Agriculture as Route to Building Climate Resilience in African Food Systems
Evaluating Climate-Smart Agriculture as Route to Building Climate Resilience in African Food Systems Open
Efforts to meet the growing demand for food across Africa have led to unsustainable land management practices that weaken the resilience of African Food Systems. Soil health is key to building more climate-resilient agricultural systems an…
