Abstract

Food Security A cornerstone of food security is stability of access to the food supply. In a pioneering study of fishing communities in Amazonian seasonally flooded forest, Tregidgo et al. show how seasonal fluctuations in access can lead to scarcity even when the resource is abundant. Fishing becomes more challenging in the high-water season, leading to severe food insecurity for the more deprived households in the community. Communities such as these that depend on a wildlife resource for a substantial proportion of their diet may become further disadvantaged as seasonal fluctuations in access to food become further exacerbated by climate change. People Nat. 10.1002/pan3.10086 (2020).
