Knowledge <strong>and</strong> Information Gaps<br />

• Useful information for local adaptation planning is not<br />

readily available<br />

• Access to <strong>climate</strong> data (e.g., daily GCM) for <strong>use</strong> in<br />

<strong>impact</strong> <strong>assessment</strong> models not easy<br />

• Spatial resolution – finer resolution required<br />

• Interdisciplinary (<strong>climate</strong>, crop, hydrology, economics,<br />

<strong>and</strong> many more) studies<br />

• Education <strong>and</strong> efficient research <strong>and</strong> advisory system<br />

• Policies to support adaptation <strong>and</strong> provide necessary<br />

resources<br />

-> development <strong>of</strong> an integrated toolbox for <strong>climate</strong> <strong>change</strong><br />

<strong>impact</strong> <strong>assessment</strong>s (<strong>climate</strong> downscaling plus <strong>impact</strong><br />

models)
