Extreme Events -Losses DRR through AF Weather Climate Extremes Climate Change Disasters Extreme Events -Losses

Agroforestry for DRR Water / Watershed Management (Flood) AF for Sloping land management Soil erosion / runoff / Land slides / avalanche control High flows due to glacial melt Slope stabilization / Contour planting of trees / etc. Living fences / hedges (rotational grazing) Awareness raising, ie potential role for AF, intersectoral / prevention Use excessive water in the uplands (seasonal) Sloping land management research Which landuse types, where ? Which AF systems, which trees, where ? Impact on water / nutrient cycles ? Upland / lowland interactions – linkages

Water / Watershed Management (Drought) AF for increased drought resilience Biophysical Water /nutrient cycle / microclimate Soil management Dry season / winter fodder Planting for combating desertification Shade (soil moisture / Windbreaks) Productivity / socio-ecological resilience Fodder management / dry season fodder Fodder / seed banks Drought resistant varieties ? Integrated livestock systems using fodder trees Food security Research topics Which landuse types, where ? Which AF systems, which trees, where ? Drought resistant varieties Impact on water / nutrient cycles ? Upland / lowland interactions – linkages

Riparian zone management (Flood / Biodiversity) AF for Riparian zone management Flood protection Nutrient barrier River bank erosion Health of river / stream ecosystem Which AF systems, which trees, where ? Impact on water / nutrient cycles ? Policy dimensions / RZM

Wind damage / dust storms / salt deposition Windbreaks Soil erosion Aral dust storms Which AF systems, which trees, where ? Impact on water / nutrient cycles / productivity

AF for Conservation of Globally Significant Biodiversity CA is Center of Diversity for Prunus / Mallus / etc Loss of these genetic resources also a disaster How can AF systems help to conserve these genetic resources In Situ Conservation Which AF systems, which trees, where ? Target Small Farms / Small holders Economic viability / value chains / niche marketing
