Coupling process of carbon sink service flow based on metacoupling framework [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Carbon sink service (CSS) is crucial in addressing global warming and provides theoretical support for research on human‒system coupling. CSS generation, flow, and utilization in the composite ecosystem of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes ...

Metacoupling of Water Transfer: The Interaction of Ecological Environment in the Middle Route of China's South-North Project. [PDF]

Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2022
At present, nearly half of the population of China live in water-deficient areas where water needs to be transferred from surrounding or remote water sources to meet local water demands. Although the water transfer project has alleviated the demands for water in the water-deficient areas, and brought water-supply income to water source regions, it has ...

How can virtual water trade reshape water stress pattern? A global evaluation based on the metacoupling perspective

Ecological Indicators, 2022
With water scarcity increasingly becoming a growing global risk, it is prevalent to explore water supply-demand interaction within and beyond national borders driven by global virtual water trade and its effects on water sustainability. However, there is

Leveraging the metacoupling framework for sustainability science and global sustainable development. [PDF]

Natl Sci Rev, 2023
ABSTRACT Sustainability science seeks to understand human–nature interactions behind sustainability challenges, but has largely been place-based. Traditional sustainability efforts often solved problems in one place at the cost of other places, compromising global sustainability.

Macrosystems as metacoupled human and natural systems [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 20-29, February 2021., 2021
Macrosystems are integrated human–natural systems, in recognition of the fact that virtually every natural system on Earth influences and is influenced by human activities, even over long distances. It is therefore crucial to incorporate inherent properties of broad‐scale systems, such as human–nature connectivity and feedbacks at multi‐scales, into ...
