The relationship between the climate and agricultural production is of considerable importance to global food security. However, there has been relatively little exploration of climate-variability related yield shocks. The short observational yield r

Background Hospice at Home (H@H) services aim to provide at-home care whilst dying, but these services are not universal and although studies have examined whether such services can prevent acute hospital admission, it is unclear whether they can pre

When local crop failures in different regions occur simultaneously, the result can be an amplification of global food production shocks. Better understanding of the role of production synchronicity in historic food system stability is an important st

The climate is changing and this will have consequences across the globe, affecting all areas of the natural and human environment in complex ways. One tool for exploring the complex relationship between climate change and security is to use a scenar
