ADOPT(-AP)

Adopt(-AP) is a dynamic drought adaptation modeling framework, which combines socio-hydrological and agent-based modeling approaches. This approach is applied to agro(pastoral) communities in dryland regions in Kenya. ADOPT is behavioral model capable of simulating different bounded rational behavioral theories, coupled to FAO crop model AquacropOS in Wens et al., 2020 and the spatially explicit hydrological Dryland Water Partitioning (DRYP) in Streefkerk et al., 2023.
