assessment will vary according to the society that is being studied. In this chapter we focus on self-provisioning societies, bringing to bear evidence from
India and Tanzania. We focus oh the variability of climate from one year to the
next and over short groups of years, as these variations create pressing problems
for self-provisioning societies. We also emphasize drought, which surpasses
other climate variations in impact on these societies. For a discussion relevant to
the effects of gradual long-term climate change on self-provisioning societies,
see Parry (Chapter 14), who offers historical examples from Europe and North
America. The question of impacts of seasonality is addressed here in part; for a
more extensive treatment, see Chambers (1982). It is also informative to
contrast the issues and approaches in this chapter with those in Pilgrim (Chapter
13), who describes social impact assessments undertaken in developed
countries.","1985","published",,,,,"John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,"437-464","625",,,,,,,,,,"TRUE","0471906344",,"Climate impact assessment: studies of the interaction of climate and society","Kates","R W",,,"",,"http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Adjustment+in+Self-provisioning+Societies&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as_sdts=5&hl=en","author",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
