Architecture of the global land acquisition system: applying the tools of network science to identify key vulnerabilities

Environmental Research Letters, 2014
Global land acquisitions, often dubbed ‘land grabbing’ are increasingly becoming drivers of land change. We use the tools of network science to describe the connectivity of the global acquisition system.

Cross-scale interactions of socio-hydrological subsystems: examining the frontier of common pool resource governance in Arizona

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
A critical frontier of water management in the western US is the challenge of cross-scale interactions. It is difficult to establish clear governance boundaries and collectively act when basins are interconnected, surface water and groundwater flows are ...

Biodiversity conservation in a telecoupled world: a framework

Proceedings of the 5th European Congress of Conservation Biology, 2018
Telecoupling is a global process that increasingly dominates land-use interactions and trade. Despite its obvious large implications for biodiversity conservation, how to manage telecoupled forces and how to implement biodiversity conservation policies in the light of telecoupling has received little attention.

Exploring the potential of the Telecoupling framework for understanding land change.

THESys Discussion Paper. Paper 1, 2014
The concept of telecoupling has recently been proposed in Land System Science as an analytical framework to address the increasing importance of distal connections and flows in driving current land use change. In this IRI THESys Discussion Paper the emergence and development of the telecoupling concept is traced.
