The Role of Toronto's Neighborhood Landscape Characteristics in Facilitating Outdoor Play During the Covid-19 Outbreak
This article explores the relationship of neighborhood landscape characteristics on outdoor play for children living in Toronto during the COVID-19 pandemic. We used a nation-wide online survey that reported changes in outdoor activities in and analyzed responses in relation to landscape affordances that facilitate outdoor play. Results show that living in areas with more landscape structures and higher population density is associated with great…
Recent losses of perennial cover in a Great Lakes agricultural region
Landscape composition is consequential to ecological functions, and in agricultural regions a simple descriptor of composition is whether the growing habit of vegetation is annual or perennial. Annual vegetation includes most of the crop species grown in central North America (e.g., corn, soybeans, cereal grains, canola), and perennial vegetation includes hay and forage crops (e.g., alfalfa) and most non‐crop land covers (e.g., woodlands, grassla…
Global and local policy forces for landscape perennialization in central North American agriculture
Farm production practices often focus on mitigating negative consequences of cropping – particularly annual crops like corn, cereals and oilseeds. Some of North America’s most-intensive farmlands are rapidly converting their remaining perennial cover to annual crops. While perennial cover like woodlands, grasslands and wetlands are valued for the many landscape services they provide, they are vulnerable to conversion to other cover types under dr…
Landscapes of Intersecting Trade and Environmental Policies
Farming in Canada and the USA is dominated by row cropping concentrated in central regions. Using the Corn Belt of Iowa and the Lake Erie Lowlands of Ontario—sources of pollution affecting the Gulf of Mexico and Great Lakes—as exemplary regions, this paper provides a retrospective review of the landscape effects of policies and practices related to environmental stewardship and agricultural trade. Conservation policies and typical farm practices …
