Mobile pastoralist strategies have evolved over centuries and are well adjusted to the variable climatic conditions of semi-arid regions. However, economic, social, and climatic changes, as well as technical advancements such as truck transportation, have increasingly affected the livelihood of pastoralist households in recent decades. An increase in inequality has been observed between wealthy pa...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatio-temporal dynamics of wood-pastures in lowland and highland landscapes across CzechiaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 19 - Trang 267-278 - 2018
Anna Pereponova, Jan Skaloš
Wood pastures represent grasslands, managed by grazing and characterised by scattered woody vegetation, recognised for their ecological, agricultural and socio-cultural roles, and are among the oldest land-use types in Europe. Rapid decline in their area all across Europe has been observed recently, sparking the appearance of a number of related studies. But these trends differ for each country an...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial and temporal trends in agro-climatic limitations to production potentials for grain maize and winter wheat in SwitzerlandSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 - Trang 109-122 - 2014
Annelie Holzkämper, Dario Fossati, Jürg Hiltbrunner, Jürg Fuhrer
Climate is a major driver of agricultural production potentials. To make the best use of these potentials, agricultural management should be adjusted to local climatic conditions. As these conditions change over time, understanding climatic limitations and their trends in time and space is essential for the planning of suitable adaptation measures. In this study, we provide a detailed spatio-temp...... hiện toàn bộ
Solastalgia, place attachment and disruption: insights from a coastal community on the front lineSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2021
Christopher Phillips, Conor Murphy
AbstractWe explore how solastalgia, a concept that describes distress and inability to derive solace from one’s environment caused by disruptive environmental change, is currently being experienced by a community in southeast Ireland as they struggle to cope with place disruption through loss of a beach by coastal erosion. We analyse relationships between empirical...... hiện toàn bộ
Integrating traditional ecological knowledge into academic research at local and global scalesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 21 - Trang 1-11 - 2021

Researchers have become increasingly concerned with the relation between traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and academic ecological knowledge (AEK). TEK includes complex predictive resources that often remain insufficiently reflected in ecological research, conservation practices, and ecosystem services. At the same time, knowledge integration comes with methodological and political challenges...... hiện toàn bộ
Linking ecosystem services provisioning with demand for animal-sourced food: an integrated modeling study for TanzaniaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2023
Dolapo Enahoro, Marta Kozicka, Catherine Pfeifer, Sarah K. Jones, Nhuong Tran, Chin Yee Chan, Timothy B. Sulser, Elisabetta Gotor, Karl M. Rich
Standard tools that can quantitatively track the impacts of higher global demand for animal-sourced food to their local environmental effects in developing countries are largely missing. This paper presents a novel integrated assessment framework that links a model of the global agricultural and food system, a landscape-level environmental impact assessment model, and an ecosystem services simulat...... hiện toàn bộ
