| En el presente estudio se realizó el análisis de las Unidades de Riego con aprovechamiento superficial en la Cuenca Lerma Chapala, México, a través de la georrefenciación y caracterización de la infraestructura hidroagrícola, padrón de usuarios y catastro, integrándolos en un Modelo de Sistema de Información Geográfica (SIG). Esto permitió conocer en forma precisa la información relevante de dichas Unidades. Se caracterizaron 1,364 unidades de riego con un total de 56,266 usuarios que detentan 114,975.26 hectáreas. La longitud de la red de conducción es de 2,435 km y la longitud de la red de drenaje es de 2,643 km, y 34,965 estructuras de control. La integración de las capas de información generadas en formato shape-file (*.shp) al Modelo de SIG de la... |

| Se caracterizaron los agroecosistemas (AES) de la microcuenca Paso de Ovejas 1 (POV-1) y con base en las condiciones locales se diseñó un índice agregado de sustentabilidad, en el cual se incluyeron cuatro dimensiones: ambiental, económica, social y humana, con un total de 29 indicadores. Para determinar los valores umbrales (máximo y mínimo) de cada indicador se consideraron parámetros locales, de cada grupo se seleccionó un AES al azar al que se le denominó agroecosistema tipo, en el que se realizaron evaluaciones detalladas y se representó en un modelo de simulación. Los grupos (G) identificados fueron: G1) tendencia a la ganadería con alta disponibilidad de tierras, G2) tendencia al manejo de cultivos con baja disponibilidad de tierras y G3) tendencia... |

| Assessing the performance of management is central to natural resource management, in terms of improving the efficiency of interventions in an adaptive-learning cycle. This is not simple, given that such systems generally have multiple scales of interaction and response; high frequency of nonlinearity, uncertainty, and time lags; multiple stakeholders with contrasting objectives; and a high degree of context specificity. The importance of bounding the problem and preparing a conceptual model of the system is highlighted. We suggest that the capital assets approach to livelihoods may be an appropriate organizing principle for the selection of indicators of system performance. In this approach, five capital assets are recognized: physical, financial, social,... |

| Zambezi Valley agro-ecosystems are environmentally, economically, and institutionally variable. This variability means that it is not possible to measure everything necessary to develop a predictive understanding of them. In particular, because people and their environments are constantly changing, what was measured yesterday may change by tomorrow. Here, I describe elements of the approach that I have developed to address this problem. Called DAAWN, for Detail as and When Needed, the approach advocates an iterative and multiscaled methodology in which we first capture as broad an understanding of the system as possible and then use awareness developed at this scale to identify where to focus subsequent, more detailed, investigations. Because we cannot... |

| We present a new method for ecologically sustainable land use planning within multiple land use schemes. Our aims were (1) to develop a method that can be used to locate important areas based on their ecological values; (2) to evaluate the quality, quantity, availability, and usability of existing ecological data sets; and (3) to demonstrate the use of the method in Eastern Finland, where there are requirements for the simultaneous development of nature conservation, tourism, and recreation. We compiled all available ecological data sets from the study area, complemented the missing data using habitat suitability modeling, calculated the total ecological score (TES) for each 1 ha grid cell in the study area, and finally, demonstrated the use of TES in... |

| We report an analysis of forest fragmentation based on 1-km resolution land-cover maps for the globe. Measurements in analysis windows from 81 km 2 (9 x 9 pixels, “small” scale) to 59,049 km 2 (243 x 243 pixels, “large” scale) were used to characterize the fragmentation around each forested pixel. We identified six categories of fragmentation (interior, perforated, edge, transitional, patch, and undetermined) from the amount of forest and its occurrence as adjacent forest pixels. Interior forest exists only at relatively small scales; at larger scales, forests are dominated by edge and patch conditions. At the smallest scale, there were significant differences in fragmentation among continents; within continents,... |

| Modeling has emerged as a key technology in analysis of social–ecological systems. However, the tendency for modeling to focus on the mechanistic materiality of biophysical systems obscures the diversity of performative social behaviors and normative cultural positions of actors within the modeled system. The fact that changes in the biophysical system can be culturally constructed in different ways means that the perception and pursuit of adaptive pathways can be highly variable. Furthermore, the adoption of biophysically resilient livelihoods can occur under conditions that are subjectively experienced as the radical transformation of cultural systems. The objectives of this work are to: (1) highlight the importance of understanding the place... |

| This paper discusses opportunities for alternative collaborative approaches for social-ecological research in general and, in this context, for modeling land-use/land-cover change. In this field, the rate of progress in academic research is steady but perhaps not as rapid or efficient as might be possible with alternative organizational frameworks. The convergence of four phenomena provides new opportunities for cross-organizational collaboration: (1) collaborative principles related to "open source" (OS) software development, (2) the emerging area of "open content" (OC) licensing, (3) the World Wide Web as a platform for scientific communication, and (4) the traditional concept of peer review. Although private individuals, government organizations, and... |
