Resumo: | Different uses of the terms "drivers," "variables," and "shocks" cause confusion in the literature and in discussions on the dynamics of ecosystems and social&amp;#8211;ecological systems. Three main sources of confusion are unclear definition of the system, unclear definition of the role of people, and confusion between variables and drivers.  As a contribution to resolving some of the confusion, we offer one interpretation of how the terms might be used.
