ADAPTIVE GOVERNANCE OF SOCIAL-ECOLOGICAL SYSTEMS

Annual Review of Environment and Resources, Journal Year: 2005, Volume and Issue: 30(1), P. 441 - 473

Published: July 25, 2005

▪ Abstract We explore the social dimension that enables adaptive ecosystem-based management. The review concentrates on experiences of governance social-ecological systems during periods abrupt change (crisis) and investigates sources renewal reorganization. Such connects individuals, organizations, agencies, institutions at multiple organizational levels. Key persons provide leadership, trust, vision, meaning, they help transform management organizations toward a learning environment. Adaptive often self-organize as networks with teams actor groups draw various knowledge for development common understanding policies. emergence “bridging organizations” seem to lower costs collaboration conflict resolution, enabling legislation governmental policies can support self-organization while framing creativity comanagement efforts. A resilient system may make use crisis an opportunity into more desired state.

A distance‐based framework for measuring functional diversity from multiple traits

Ecology, Journal Year: 2010, Volume and Issue: 91(1), P. 299 - 305

Published: Jan. 1, 2010

A new framework for measuring functional diversity (FD) from multiple traits has recently been proposed. This was mostly limited to quantitative without missing values and situations in which there are more species than traits, although the authors had suggested a way extend their other trait types. The main purpose of this note is further develop suggestion. We describe highly flexible distance‐based measure different facets FD multidimensional space any distance or dissimilarity measure, number types (i.e., quantitative, semi‐quantitative, qualitative). approach allows weighting individual traits. also present index, called dispersion (FDis), closely related Rao's quadratic entropy. FDis multivariate analogue weighted mean absolute deviation (MAD), weights relative abundances. For unweighted presence–absence data, can be used formal statistical test differences FD. provide “FD” R language package easily implement our framework.

Social-Ecological Resilience to Coastal Disasters

Science, Journal Year: 2005, Volume and Issue: 309(5737), P. 1036 - 1039

Published: Aug. 12, 2005

Social and ecological vulnerability to disasters outcomes of any particular extreme event are influenced by buildup or erosion resilience both before after occur. Resilient social-ecological systems incorporate diverse mechanisms for living with, learning from, change unexpected shocks. Disaster management requires multilevel governance that can enhance the capacity cope with uncertainty surprise mobilizing sources resilience.
