Insurance value of biodiversity in the Anthropocene is the full resilience value
Recently two distinctly different conceptualisations of insurance value of biodiversity/ ecosystems have been developed. The ecosystem framing addresses the full resilience value without singling out subjective risk preferences. Conversely, the economic framing focuses exactly on this subjective value of risk aversion, implying that the insurance value is zero for risk neutral persons. Here we analyse the differences conceptually and empirically,…
The programme on ecosystem change and society (Pecs) – a decade of deepening social-ecological research through a place-based focus
The Programme on Ecosystem Change and Society (PECS) was established in 2011, and is now one of the major international social-ecological systems (SES) research networks. During this time, SES research has undergone a phase of rapid growth and has grown into an influential branch of sustainability science. In this Perspective, we argue that SES research has also deepened over the past decade, and helped to shed light on key dimensions of SES dyna…
Critical social science perspectives on transformations to sustainability
This article introduces a special issue on the contribution of social science to addressing transformations to sustainability. Articles underline the importance of embracing theoretically rooted, empirically informed, and collaboratively generated knowledge to address sustainability challenges and transformative change. Emphasis is placed on the role of the social sciences in elaborating on the politicisation and pluralisation of transformation p…
Key challenges for governing forest and landscape restoration across different contexts
History and scope of environmental anthropology
Environmental Anthropology is the general designation for the anthropological investigation of human–environment relationships. This chapter begins with a brief discussion about the evolution of terminology as applied to Environmental Anthropology and fields of specialization within it. It then highlights how different specialties developed – one dominated by an ecosystem-oriented approach, one by a political-economy-oriented approach, one by a h…
Incorporando a variabilidade no processo de identificação do modelo de máximo global no Grade of Membership (GoM)
The availability of increasingly complex and multidimensional datasets is one of the main causes for the increase in studies employing multivariate analyses based on fuzzy sets. Even though the Grade of Membership method has been widely used in Brazil for empirical studies in health and social sciences, issues regarding identifiability and stability of the final parameters estimated by GoM 3.4 software have not been thoroughly examined. Given the…
Influência da origem da família e de variáveis econômicas no uso da terra e no desmatamento de lotes familiares da Amazônia brasileira
O artigo compara a influência de onze variáveis independentes (origem da família, tempo de ocupação do lote, escolaridade do casal, índice de geração, índice de gênero, tamanho do lote, titularidade do lote, renda familiar anual, acesso ao crédito rural, acesso ao transporte e acesso à energia elétrica) no uso da terra e desmatamento de, aproximadamente, 2.400 lotes familiares rurais amazônicos selecionados pela política pública federal piloto Pr…
Revisiting the hierarchy of urban areas in the Brazilian Amazon
Urban Forest and Rural Cities
Padoch, C., E. Brondizio, S. Costa, M. Pinedo-Vasquez, R. R. Sears, and A. Siqueira. 2008. Urban forest and rural cities: multi-sited households, consumption patterns, and forest resources in Amazonia. Ecology and Society 13(2): 2. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-02526-130202
The Use of Remotely Sensed Data in Rapid Rural Assessment
This article discusses how analysis of remotely sensed data can be applied in rapid rural assessment and how its application can expand the spatial analysis of land-use/land-cover (LULC) change. It describes the methodological steps to carry out an LULC analysis based on Landsat Thematic Mapper image analysis under time and budget constraints. The article presents intra-and intercommunity comparisons of different LULC patterns. The discussion foc…
