Climate Food Insecurity

Spatial patterns of climate-induced food insecurity refer to the geographic distribution and variability of food scarcity and vulnerability that arise as a result of climate change impacts, such as altered precipitation, temperature fluctuations, and extreme weather events, affecting agricultural productivity and food access in different regions. These patterns highlight how certain areas may be more susceptible to food insecurity due to their specific climatic and socio-economic conditions.
