This research partnership will build and strengthen scientific collaboration between UK and Brazilian researchers. Our team will work together to develop new, innovative research in order to reduce the vulnerability of Amazonian cities to extreme climatic events, such as floods and droughts. We hope that this research enables decision-makers in Brazil to identify those cities that need humanitarian assistance most during climate emergencies, and also build long-term resilience (capacity to absorb these shocks) to floods and droughts. Our team members come from various academic disciplines, including statistics, health science, economics, environmental social science, and spatial modelling. We will use secondary data sources to examine how adaptive capacity, local institutions and natural hazard exposure (the occurrence of droughts and floods) influence the negative impacts of these climate events on the well-being of people living in Amazonian cities. We are also interested in how extreme climatic events may influence food prices in these cities, which has implications for the affordability of food for the poorest city-dwellers. Our network also involves local citizens, and we will work with a range of community members in our focal cities in order to make sure that are research is locally-relevant and useful. Finally, we are investing significant effort in improving career opportunities for Amazonian scientists, and will achieve this through UK-Brazil researcher exchange, and workshops to train Masters and PhD students in the UK and Brazil.

这项研究伙伴关系将建立和加强英国与巴西研究人员之间的科学合作。我们的团队将共同努力开发新的创新研究，以减少亚马逊城市对极端气候事件（例如洪水和干旱）的脆弱性。我们希望这项研究使巴西的决策者能够在气候紧急情况下确定那些需要人道主义援助的城市，并为洪水和干旱建立长期的韧性（吸收这些冲击的能力）。我们的团队成员来自各种学科，包括统计，健康科学，经济学，环境社会科学和空间建模。我们将使用次要数据来源来研究自适应能力，地方机构和自然危害暴露（干旱和洪水的发生）如何影响这些气候事件对生活在亚马逊城市中人们福祉的负面影响。我们还对极端气候事件如何影响这些城市的粮食价格感兴趣，这对最贫穷的城市居民的粮食负担能力产生了影响。我们的网络还涉及当地公民，我们将与焦点城市中的一系列社区成员合作，以确保研究与本地相关且有用。最后，我们正在投入大量努力，以改善亚马逊科学家的职业机会，并将通过英国 - 巴西研究人员交流和讲习班来培训英国和巴西的硕士和博士生。
