Transboundary flows in the metacoupled Anthropocene: typology, methods, and governance for global sustainability

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2023
The world has become increasingly metacoupled through flows of materials, energy, people, capital, and information within and across systems. Transboundary flows, connecting adjacent and distant systems, are deemed the most critical indicators for ...

The Metacoupling Framework Informs Stream Salmonid Management and Governance [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
Stream salmonid fisheries are ecologically and socioeconomically important at local to global scales throughout the world. Although these fisheries are interacting systems of biota, habitats, and humans, systematic social-ecological integration across ...

Network analysis as a tool for quantifying the dynamics of metacoupled systems: an example using global soybean trade

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2018
The metacoupling framework provides grounds for characterizing interactions within and between coupled human and natural systems, yet few studies quantify the nuances of these systems.

Boat to bowl: resilience through network rewiring of a community-supported fishery amid the COVID-19 pandemic

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Fisheries are coupled human–natural systems locally, regionally, and globally. However, human–nature interactions within and between adjacent and distant systems (metacouplings) are rarely studied in fisheries despite their prevalence and policy ...
