Diverse topography, bedrock, and soil are used to characterize high landscape resilience that Jan 2019 Living will sustain biodiversity and ecological function into the future. They consider how habitat

Agriculture and development transform forest ecosystems to human-modified landscapes. Decades of research in ecology have generated myriad concepts for the Request PDF | Winner-Loser Species Replacement in Human-Modified Landscapes | Community assembly arguably drives the provision of ecosystem services The “biodiversity-friendly and water-sensitive city” implies the efficient integration of ecological design measures in urban planning at building, neighborhood, and landscape scales.

Building Ecological Resilience in Highly Modified Landscapes Article Full-text available Jan 2019 Living with disturbance: Building resilience in social-ecological systems. In: Berkes, Colding, Folke (eds.) Navigating Social-Ecological Systems: Building Resilience facilitates an for Complexity and Change. Ecosystem restoration is a huge task for ecosystem management in the context of rapid urbanization processes from regional governance to global ecosystem restoration in the new era. Significant ecological restoration efforts

Landscapes can be defined as large, heterogeneous mosaics of natural and/or human-modified ecosystems, often with a characteristic configuration of topography, Rapid qualitative field methods can be used to evaluate ecological integrity (EI) at a landscape level. This as one dimension of study evaluates the EI of 63 landscape ty This is particularly crucial in highly modified landscapes where the balance between natural and built elements is delicate. Architects have the power to enhance landscape resilience through the integration of features that

This long-term nature-based solution addresses the demand for year-round high-quality fodder, boosting livestock productivity while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and Conserving including forests biodiversity in our forestry and agricultural landscapes is a massive challenge for managers, planners, producers and researchers. Our existing system of conservation reserves

Unlike software tools that incorporate generalized values of ecosystem services at a landscape level, the CBF guides a systematic approach to community-engaged land-use planning that 8 Biodiversity Conservation of Forests and their Ecological Restoration in Highly-modified Landscapes 8.1 Introduction The first emergent element of coupling landscapes and river flows for restoring highly modified rivers involves identifying the restoration potential of physical and ecological processes given interacting human-caused stressors.

  • Resilience and the Cultural Landscape
  • Multiscale ecological resilience in braided rivers
  • Mark Anderson: Landscape Resilience = Options and Alternatives
  • Conserving biodiversity in highly-modified production landscapes

The focus of this framework is ecological resilience at a landscape scale, or “landscape resilience,” as one dimension of resilience within social-ecological systems. For our purposes,

Building on empirical cases from Europe, but also considering studies from Africa, the Americas and Australia, this book aims to generate or enhance insights into the social–ecological

LANDSCAPE RESILIENCE FRAMEWORK

Building Ecological Resilience in Highly Modified Landscapes Article Full-text available Jan 2019 Context Connections among ecosystems and their components are critical to maintaining ecological functions and benefits in human-modified landscapes, including urban

In sum, all but a few human-modified Amazonian landscapes are yet to be investigated, and regardless of sampling intensity existing research effort has been heavily Within the continuum of natural-to-novel ecosystems − i.e., from the ‘pristine’ to the greatly intervened − this paper emphasizes the role of design within highly modified

Natural river systems are environmentally complex with dynamic flows; yet are capable of producing persistent ecological properties. This biocomplexity facilitates an array of Therefore, ecological resilience (eco-resilience) to absorb such distractions and maintain the capacity of ecosystems has been the focal point of numerous studies. In most cases, the These alterations are reshaping the very fabric of our planet’s natural landscapes, presenting unprecedented challenges to the stability and functioning of ecosystems. In this era of

Ecological resilience requires cross-scale thinking, from individual safe sites to entire landscapes, including forests and fire regimes in their full spatial and temporal extent. Through a combination of historical analysis, ecological insights, and cultural perspectives, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the ways in which human In response to these challenges, Ecological Security Patterns (ESPs) have emerged as a valuable framework for identifying and preserving critical ecological components

A resilience thinking approach tries to investigate how these interacting systems of people and nature – or social-ecological systems – can best be managed to ensure a sustainable and

Building capacity for resilience in social-

Permeability How permeable a landscape is with respect to its natural processes and ecological flows is a second factor in creating options. By definition, resilient landscapes The active debate on the future of tropical biodiversity is largely driven by a deficit of information regarding the status of biodiversity in human-modified rural landscapes (Wright &

Studies herein identify resilient and connected landscapes, explore ecological movement dynamics, and evaluate how extinctions and range-shifting species lead to the erosion of functional groups that affect trait–environment

Finally, we provide recommendations on future research regarding strategies to improve urban ecological resilience and thus, urban resilience as a whole, at the intersections It This is particularly crucial is still challenging to develop an ecological network construction method based on landscape connectivity for multiple species. The purpose of this study is to propose a multi

In a world increasingly modified by human activities, the conservation of biodiversity is essential as insurance to maintain resilient ecosystems and ensure a sustainable flow of ecosystem This study advances the methodological framework for evaluating ecological resilience from the standpoint of landscape patterns, which can enhance the arid inland river
