Coupled Human and Natural Systems
AMBIO: A Journal of the Human Environment, 2007Humans 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, 2006This 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

Bushfire Smoke: An Exemplar of Coupled Human and Natural Systems
Geographical Research, 2013AbstractCarbon‐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

Structure, function, and dynamic mechanisms of coupled human–natural systems
Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2018Many integrated interdisciplinary studies have been conducted to coupling human and natural systems, in which concepts such as human–natural systems, human–environment systems, and socio-ecological systems are prevalent. In recent decades, significant progress has been made toward establishing a framework to communicate knowledge and disciplines, but ...

Simulating Forest Landscape Disturbances as Coupled Human and Natural Systems
2015Anthropogenic disturbances resulting from human land use affect forest landscapes over a range of spatial and temporal scales, with diverse influences on vegetation patterns and dynamics. These processes fall within the scope of the coupled human and natural systems (CHANS) concept, which has emerged as an important framework for understanding the ...

Fuzzy Adaptive Management of Coupled Natural and Human Systems
2016Abstract A fuzzy logic-based, adaptive management (FLAM) model is developed that allows managers of coupled natural and human systems to determine preferred management actions over time when they are uncertain about the extent of future climate change and system responses to climate change and management actions.

Seven Approaches to Manage Complex Coupled Human and Natural Systems: A Sustainability Toolbox
Environmental Science & Technology, 2019Since the publication of the Report of the World Commission on Environment and Development in 1987, there have been numerous studies on sustainability. These studies created new knowledge and tools for understanding and managing complex coupled human and natural systems. In this Critical Review, we used a topic modeling technique to analyze 12 526 peer-

Explanation and Intervention in Coupled Human and Natural Systems
2013“Coupled human and natural systems” (CHANS) has emerged within the last two decades as a designation for interdisciplinary research focused on complex interactions between human activities and ecosystems. I examine CHANS from a manipulation approach to explanation advocated by Jim Woodward, according to which causal generalizations are distinguished by
