Abstract

Unlike existing studies that examined the effects of weather variability by relying on the current weather conditions disregarding the long-term influence of historical weather patterns, we jointly estimate the effects of current and past weather variability on rural households’ nutritional status. Using three waves of nationally representative panel data from rural Ethiopia, we show that the nutritional status of farming households, measured by daily intakes of micro-and macronutrients, is more sensitive to past weather variability than the current weather condition. We also find that adverse weather history can trigger responses that are linked to the deterioration of nutritional status.

天气变化与埃塞俄比亚农户的营养不良问题

现有的研究只关注当前的天气状况，而忽视了历史天气模式的长期影响，与此不同，我们联合估算了当前和过去的天气变化对农村家庭营养状况的影响。通过使用埃塞俄比亚农村地区具有全国代表性的三波面板数据，我们发现，以每日微量和宏量营养素摄入量衡量的农户营养状况对过去天气变化的敏感度要高于当前天气状况。我们还发现，不利的天气历史会引发与营养状况恶化相关的反应。

期刊介绍： Climate Risk Management publishes original scientific contributions, state-of-the-art reviews and reports of practical experience on the use of knowledge and information regarding the consequences of climate variability and climate change in decision and policy making on climate change responses from the near- to long-term. The concept of climate risk management refers to activities and methods that are used by individuals, organizations, and institutions to facilitate climate-resilient decision-making. Its objective is to promote sustainable development by maximizing the beneficial impacts of climate change responses and minimizing negative impacts across the full spectrum of geographies and sectors that are potentially affected by the changing climate.
