Complexity of Coupled Human and Natural Systems [PDF]

Science, 2007
Integrated studies of coupled human and natural systems reveal new and complex patterns and processes not evident when studied by social or natural scientists separately. Synthesis of six case studies from around the world shows that couplings between human and natural systems vary across space, time, and organizational units.

Coupled Human and Natural Systems

AMBIO: A Journal of the Human Environment, 2007
Humans have continuously interacted with natural systems, resulting in the formation and development of coupled human and natural systems (CHANS). Recent studies reveal the complexity of organizational, spatial, and temporal couplings of CHANS. These couplings have evolved from direct to more indirect interactions, from adjacent to more distant ...

Introduction to: The Dynamics of Coupled Human and Natural Systems

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006
This essay introduces a special section of this issue containing a set of papers on the dynamics of coupled human and natural systems. We frame this introduction by setting out some of the major issues confronting researchers who wish to incorporate both economic and biophysical dynamics in their analysis. We contrast the three papers contained in this

An agent-based platform for the study of watersheds as coupled natural and human systems

Environmental Modelling and Software, 2017
Abstract This study describes the architecture and capabilities of an open source agent-based Java platform that permits the systematic study of interactions among hydrology, climate, and strategic human decision-making in a watershed over time. To demonstrate the platform's use and capabilities, an application is presented in accordance with ODD ...

Bushfire Smoke: An Exemplar of Coupled Human and Natural Systems

Geographical Research, 2013
AbstractCarbon‐based microscopic particles have provided a crucial line of evidence in understanding the coupling between humans and fires. Through the sedimentary record, they have informed our understandings of the patterns of climate and humans on fire activity through time. The extent of contemporary atmospheric biomass burning emissions has become

Urban Wildlife Science in Coupled Human–Natural Systems

2014
Coupled human and natural systems (CHANS) are defined as systems in which human and natural components interact. Nowhere is this coupling as intense as in cities, and therefore, urban wildlife is distinguished from other wildlife by the increased level of interaction with people and human modified environments.

A Coupled Human–Natural Systems Framework of Community Resilience

Journal of Natural Resources Policy Research, 2018
Abstract This article compares and contrasts resilience frameworks to identify commonalities and gaps. It proposes use of a coupled human–natural systems framework (CHNS) to analyze community resilience to disasters. CHNS builds on the human ecosystem model, which analyzes how institutions and social order shape fluxes and flows of ...
