Mapping the characteristics and extent of environmental conflicts related to land use is important for developing regionally specific policies.
The accelerated development of new urban areas has an impact on changes in the spatial use and complexity of ecosystems.
The complexity of spatial use has an impact on poverty and the development of slum settlements towards a decrease in environmental quality.
This paper describes how knowledge mobilization evolved during a study that assessed a proposed increase in industrial water withdrawals from the Athabasca River in northern Alberta, Canada, and potential impacts on a suite of freshwater semi-aquatic mammals in the broader ecosystem.
Amid climate change, biodiversity loss and food insecurity, there is the growing need to draw synergies between micro-scale environmental processes and practices, and macro-level ecosystem dynamics to facilitate conservation decision-making.
In the past decades, sugarcane production in Brazil has expanded rapidly to meet increasing ethanol demand. The large majority of this expansion occurred in Sao Paulo state.
Drastic growth of urban populations has caused expansion of peri-urban areas—the transitional zone between a city and its hinterland.
Many actors in agricultural research, development, and policy arenas require accurate information on the spatial extents of cropping and farming practices.
Land surface models (LSMs) predict how terrestrial fluxes of carbon, water, and energy change with abiotic drivers to inform the other components of Earth system models. Here, we focus on a single human-dominated watershed in southwestern Michigan, USA.
