This book offers the first comprehensive national assessment of climate change impacts on Saudi Arabia's livestock, fisheries, pests, and coastal ecosystems. With 18 chapters from 37 scientists, illustrated by 51 figures and 42 tables, it examines rangeland degradation, the critical role of indigenous breeds (camels, goats, native bees) adapted to hyper-arid conditions, sustainable aquaculture, and climate-driven pest outbreaks. What sets this book apart is its integration of terrestrial and marine systems, demonstrating that genetic resources underpin climate resilience and that sustainability is fundamental, not secondary, to productivity. Readers gain practical frameworks for moving beyond fragmented approaches toward integrated governance, including actionable policy recommendations for conservation and ecosystem-based adaptation aligned with Vision 2030. This is essential reading for policymakers shaping adaptation strategies, researchers studying food system vulnerabilities, practitioners in animal production and coastal management, and educators addressing climate-food security challenges.
