Climate change's impact on key ecosystem services and the human well-being they support in the US Climate change alters the functions of ecological systems. As a result, the provision of ecosystem services and the well-being of people that rely on these... Nelson,J E.,Kareiva,... 被引量...
nighttime lights, or forest cover change (with minor exceptions—see Methods), then it was no longer low-impact. The impacts of both human population and livestock density vary with ecosystem productivity.
Ecosystem resilience and human impact in the Pacific Oceanscape: current status and future directions Last update 5 October 2021 Human activities have produced a range of stressors in the marine environment which have direct and indirect effects on people, planet and prosperity. Marine ecosystems acro...
In other words, impact on social well-being and impact on prosperity can be subtracted from the impacts on human health, ecosystem quality, and natural resource. As a result, the higher the scores are, the worse the product systems are. The weighted sum result of rice husk-based ...
Forests provide a plethora of ecosystem services and are indispensable to the anthroposphere and the biosphere1,2,3,4,5,6. However, forests consume water for physiological functioning and growth, thus they might potentially deplete Earth’s water resources7,8,9,10. Conceptually, forest communities...
Evaluating the impacts of land-use/land-cover (LULC) changes on ecosystem service values (ESVs) is essential for sustainable use and management of ecosystems. In this study, we evaluated the impact of human activity driven LULC changes on ESVs over the period 1982–2016/17 in contrasting agro...
Watersheds provide multiple ecosystem services. Ecosystem service assessment is a promising approach to investigate human-environment interaction at the wa
Forest-grassland mosaic ecosystems can exhibit alternative stables states, whereby under the same environmental conditions, the ecosystem could equally well reside either in one state or another, depending on the initial conditions. We develop a mathemat
Finally, we expect nonlinear relationships to exist between ecosystem condition and the intensity of both individual stressors and CHI25,26,27. These nonlinearities would lead to faster than linear increases in ecosystem impact with increasing stressor intensity that would necessitate lower thresholds for...
