Última Estimating Resilience Across Landscapes Ecology and Society Peterson, Garry D; McGill University; garry.peterson@mcgill.ca. Although ecological managers typically focus on managing local or regional landscapes, they often have little ability to control or predict many of the large-scale, long-term processes that drive changes within these landscapes. This lack of control has led some ecologists to argue that ecological management should aim to produce ecosystems that are resilient to change and surprise. Unfortunately, ecological resilience is difficult to measure or estimate in the landscapes people manage. In this paper, I extend system dynamics approaches to resilience and estimate resilience using complex landscape simulation models. I use this approach to evaluate cross-scale edge, a novel empirical method for estimating resilience based on landscape pattern. Cross-scale...

Ano: 2002 Network approaches for understanding rainwater management from a social-ecological systems perspective Ecology and Society Prager, Steven D.; International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT); s.prager@cgiar.org; Pfeifer, Catherine; International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI); c.pfeifer@cgiar.org. The premise of this research is to better understand how approaches to implementing rainwater management practices can be informed by understanding how the people living and working in agroecosystems are connected to one another. Because these connections are via both social interactions and functional characteristics of the landscape, a social-ecological network emerges. Using social-ecological network theory, we ask how understanding the structure of interactions can lead to improved rainwater management interventions. Using a case study situated within a small sub-basin in the Fogera area of the Blue Nile Basin of Ethiopia, we build networks of smallholders based both on the biophysical and social-institutional landscapes present in the study site, with...
