“Generality of mis-fit”? The real-life difficulty of matching scales in an interconnected world
A clear understanding of processes at multiple scales and levels is of special significance when conceiving strategies for human-environment interactions. However, understanding and application of the scale concept often differ between administrative-political and ecological disciplines. These mirror major differences in potential solutions whether and how scales can, at all, be made congruent....
متن کاملResearch, part of a Special Feature on Heterogeneity and Resilience of Human-Rangifer Systems: A CircumArctic Synthesis Modeling Regional Dynamics of Human–Rangifer Systems: a Framework for Comparative Analysis
Theoretical models of interaction between wild and domestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus; caribou in North America) can help explain observed social–ecological dynamics of arctic hunting and husbandry systems. Different modes of hunting and husbandry incorporate strategies to mitigate effects of differing patterns of environmental uncertainty. Simulations of simple models of harvested wild and d...
متن کاملInfluences of large-scale climatic variability on reindeer population dynamics: implications for reindeer husbandry in Norway
There is increasing evidence that the globe is currently warming, with changes being more pronounced in northern latitudes. Understanding the ecological effects of climatic variability is therefore important. There is recent support for the idea that a large-scale atmospheric phenomenon, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), through its effects on vegetation and regional weather conditions, inf...
متن کاملNeutral models for patchy landscapes
The landscapes currently studied in ecology are either " discontinuous " (category-based or patch-based), as in the case of mosaics of agricultural units, or of more " continuous " type (raster lattices), as used for representing elevation or other ecological gradients. The main landscape models either involve explicit processes or are neutral, recreating spatial patterns in the absence of stud...
متن کاملSpace Technologies for Enhancing the Resilience and Sustainability of Indigenous Reindeer Husbandry in the Russian Arctic
In response to the major changes taking place across the Arctic climatic, environmental, economic, social, industrial there is an increasing need for improved land cover/land use change information, especially remotely sensed data, by indigenous reindeer herders on the characterization of pasture quality and migratory routes, such as vegetation distribution, snow cover, infrastructure developme...
