Item Restricted A comparative study between mainland and islander small-scale fishermen’s adaptation towards climate change(Springer, 2020) Asnarulkhadi Abu Samah; Hayrol Azril Mohamed ShaffrilThe existing literature have demonstrated a considerable amount of existing studies that merely interest on scientific perspectives by examining the physical environmental changes rather than conducting social-based studies that allow for the comparison of adaptation ability between mainland and island small-scale fishermen. Therefore, the current research attempts to fill this gap by investigating the adaptation level of mainland and island small-scale fishermen towards climate changes for the purpose of further identifying any significant differences regarding their adaptation aspects.Item Restricted Adaptation towards climate change impacts among highland farmers in Malaysia(Springer, 2020) Hayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril; Khairuddin Idris; Hamizah Sahharon; Asnarulkhadi Abu Samah; Bahaman Abu SamahThis study aims to gain more understanding on highland farmers’ adaptation towards the impacts of climate change in Malaysia. Via a multi-stage cluster sampling, this quantitative study has surveyed a total of 400 highland farmers as respondents.Item Restricted Comparing adaptation ability towards climate change impacts between the youth and the older fishermen(Elsevier, 2019) Asnarulkhadi Abu Samah; Hayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril; Mohd Fauzi FadzilIn recent years, a considerable amount of studies published locally which focused on the influence of age on climate change ability. Accordingly, this has driven the present study to achieve its main objective which is to compare the adaptation ability between youth and older fishermen. The current research is quantitative in nature; hence, a survey was conducted on a total of 259 youth and older fishermen residing in different states of Malaysia, namely Pulau Pinang, Terengganu, Johor, and Kedah. The present study managed to conclude a unique and important result which stated that youth and older fishermen within the context of Malaysia have an equally strong adaptation ability.Item Restricted Individual adaptive capacity of small-scale fishermen living in vulnerable areas towards the climate change in Malaysia(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2017) Hayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril; Azimi Hamzah; Jeffrey Lawrence D'Silva; Bahaman Abu Samah; Asnarulkhadi Abu SamahThe present study attempts to identify the individual adaptive capacity of small-scale fishermen living in coastal areas that are vulnerable to the climate change in Malaysia. This study is quantitative in nature and involves a total of 240 respondents from four areas in Malaysia.Item Restricted The adaptation towards climate change impacts among islanders in Malaysia(Elsevier, 2020) Nobaya Ahmad; Hayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril; Asnarulkhadi Abu Samah; Khairuddin Idris; Bahaman Abu Samah; Mas Ernawati HamdanThe climate change phenomenon has been occurring in every part of the world, including Malaysia. In particular, changes such as rising temperature, sea level rise, and unstable rain pattern are proven to affect the socio-economic routine of the community. Hence, it is necessary to learn how to adapt to it, especially those who heavily rely on nature stability. The present study examined the adaptation towards climate change among islanders in Malaysia. In addition, the current research was performed quantitatively using a developed questionnaire as the main data collection tool.
