Appendix 02: Post-AR5 annotated bibliography
POST-AR5 ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY ON CLIMATE AND HUMAN- DERIVED IMPACTS ON AGRICULTURE AND LAND-BASED ECOSYSTEMS AND POLICIES FOR ADAPTATION, MITIGATION, AND FOOD SECURITY

SYNOPSIS
This annotated bibliography offers a selective but comprehensive supplement to the EM report covering a large number of themes related to the FAO-IPCC Expert Meeting on climate change, land use, and food security. The bibliography structure roughly follows the order of themes in the EM agenda. In selecting the references to cite, several factors
were considered: the five thematic areas covered in the EM; only post-AR citations published since 2013; and citations with direct or indirect links to food security. The vast majority of the citations are academic, peer-reviewed papers,
but not all. The bibliography also includes sections that expand beyond the topics covered at the EM, thus offering more balance that what was covered in the EM owing to the participants’ disciplinary knowledge. For example, while the EM discussions on mitigation options for crops focused exclusively on rice, the bibliography includes a section on non-rice crops. In addition, trade, which was barely discussed at the EM, receives a full section in the bibliography
given its important role in climate change policy and food security. Few topics directly linked to food security, such as sea fisheries, were not included given the EM focus on land issues; but aquaculture and inland fisheries are covered. Finally, the bibliography includes an extensive coverage of policies addressing a wide range of topics, even though some readers may still underrepresented areas. The hope is to provide readers an entry point into their area of interest and take this as a starting point for further exploration and analysis.
