et al., 2018). Biodiversity loss from traditional agroecosystems is a major threat to food and livelihoods security in SIDS . Additionally, while coastal-lowland salinisation and more frequent flooding attributable to SLR have impacted coastal agriculture on some islands , stronger TCs can sometimes shock island terrestrial food production warranting reconfiguration . Calls to conserve associated environments and to make terrestrial food production on islands more resilient to climate-driven shocks underscore concern about future food security . Implicit in the latter is reversing the decades-long loss of Indigenous knowledge about food production in many island societies and incorporating it into future strategies .
