Barriers and bridges to implement policies about sustainable development and sustainability commonly depend on the past development of social–ecological systems. Production of metals required integration of use of ore, streams for energy, and wood for bioenergy and construction, as well as of multiple societal actors. Focusing on the Swedish Bergslagen region as a case study we (1) describe the ph...... hiện toàn bộ
Quantifying trade-offs between ecological gains, economic costs, and landowners’ preferences in boreal mire protectionAmbio - Tập 50 - Trang 1841-1850 - 2021
Eini Nieminen, Santtu Kareksela, Panu Halme, Janne Sakari Kotiaho
Private land often encompasses biodiversity features of high conservation value, but its protection is not straightforward. Commonly, landowners’ perspectives are rightfully allowed to influence conservation actions. This unlikely comes without consequences on biodiversity or other aspects such as economic considerations, but these consequences are rarely quantitatively considered in decision-maki...... hiện toàn bộ
People and biodiversity in the 21st centuryAmbio - Tập 50 - Trang 970-975 - 2021
Jeffrey Sayer, Christopher Margules, Jeffrey A. McNeely
Fifty years have elapsed since the first publication of Ambio. Throughout this period, fundamental changes have occurred in societal attitudes to biodiversity conservation. Ambio has published numerous papers that have aligned with these new approaches. High citations numbers suggest that Ambio papers have had a significant impact on conservation strategies. We review these publications and find t...... hiện toàn bộ
Light at the end of the tunnel: Innovative opportunities for saving tropical biodiversityAmbio - - Trang 1-16 - 2024

The expansion of roads into wilderness areas and biodiversity hotspots in the Global South seems inevitable and is predicted to bring about significant biodiversity loss. Even so, existing widespread strategies aiming to mitigate the direct and indirect impacts of roads on the environment have been of limited effectiveness. These tactics, including construction of fencing, wildlife crossings on pa...... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractTundra-breeding birds face diverse conservation challenges, from accelerated rates of Arctic climate change to threats associated with highly migratory life histories. Here we summarise the status and trends of Arctic terrestrial birds (88 species, 228 subspecies or distinct flyway populations) across guilds/regions, derived from published sources, raw data...... hiện toàn bộ
