  1. 1. Harvesting from land and sea : Social relationships, trade networks, and spatial connectivity in changing social-ecological systems

    Author : Blanca González García-Mon; Maja Schlüter; Örjan Bodin; Emilie Lindkvist; Bonnie McCay; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; social-ecological systems; food; trade; networks; embeddedness; supply chain; diversification; mobility; fisheries; agriculture; mixed-methods; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling; Sustainability Science;

    Abstract : In the era of global change, the connectivity of aquatic and terrestrial food production systems across spatial scales is increasing. At the same time, diverse actors that participate in food systems, from production to consumption, face the need to adapt their daily activities to an increasingly changing context. READ MORE

  2. 2. Global patterns of international fisheries conflict

    Author : Jessica Spijkers; Henrik Österblom; Matthew Osborne; Tiffany Morrison; Graeme S. Cumming; Geoff Dabelko; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fisheries; conflict; environmental security; social-ecological systems; complex adaptive systems thinking; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Are international conflicts over fishery resources a growing security concern? High-profile incidences of conflict, diminishing fishery resources and climate impacts on marine systems have made the international community increasingly wary of fisheries conflict. However, we lack knowledge on conflict incidences over time, as well as the contexts in which the conflicts occur, to assess if fisheries conflict is a growing security threat. READ MORE

  3. 3. Small-Scale Fisheries Governance : Broadening Perspectives on Markets, Relationships and Benefits in Seafood Trade

    Author : Elizabeth Drury O'Neill; Beatrice Crona; Maricela de la Torre Castro; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Sustainability; Social-Ecological System; Value chain approach; Social realm; Gender Roles; Local attributes; Marine ecosystem; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : This licentiate adresses the relative ambiguity surounding benefit flows from small-scale fisheries seafood trade with a specific focus on how they may be impacted by market and social stuctures. Small-scale fishery governenace has previously taken a narrowly approach to sustainability. READ MORE

  4. 4. Agricultural nutrient budgets in Europe: data, methods, and indicators

    Author : Rasmus Einarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phosphorus; nutrient budget; EU; nutrient balance; nitrogen; Europe; indicators; environment; agriculture;

    Abstract : Agricultural production systems feed humanity but also cause a range of adverse environmental effects, including climate change, loss of biodiversity, and pollution of air and water. A main cause of these effects is the emissions of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) that occur as a side effect of nutrient cycling in agriculture. READ MORE

  5. 5. SEA CHANGE : Social-ecological co-evolution in Baltic Sea fisheries

    Author : Jonas Hentati-Sundberg; Henrik Österblom; Joakim Hjelm; Trevor Branch; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; resilience; social-ecological systems; complex adaptive systems; fisheries; Baltic Sea; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Sustainable management of natural resources requires an in-depth understanding of the interplay between social and ecological change. Linked social-ecological systems (SES) have been described as complex adaptive systems (CAS), which mean that they are irreducible, exhibit nonlinear dynamics, have interactions across scales and are uncertain and unpredictable.
