Biodiversity conservation in a telecoupled world: a framework
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.

From teleconnection to telecoupling: taking stock of an emerging framework in land system science
Land use change is influenced by a complexity of drivers that transcend spatial, institutional and temporal scales. The analytical framework of telecoupling has recently been proposed in land system science to address this complexity, particularly the increasing importance of distal connections, flows and feedbacks characterising change in land systems.

Even at the uttermost ends of the Earth: how seabirds telecouple the Beagle Channel with regional and global processes that affect environmental conservation and socio-ecological sustainability [PDF]
Human-wildlife dynamics exhibit novel characteristics in the Anthropocene, given the unprecedented degree of globalization that has increased the linkages between habitats and people across space and time. This is largely caused by transnational mobility

Response of Global Forest Management to Changes in Wood Demand
This study uses a global land use modelling framework (LandSyMM) to simulate global wood demand, harvests, and forest management intensity under a range of socioeconomic and climate scenarios. Findings indicate that global wood demand could increase between 27% and 102% by 2100. This rise in demand is expected to be met primarily through more intensive

Biodiversity loss, consumption and telecoupling – Why do we need to look beyond our borders? [PDF]
Biodiversity loss is advancing rapidly, and the previous international goals for halting biodiversity loss have not been met. Besides protecting biodiversity within, e.g.

The Diverse Powers of Urban–Rural Linkages: A Growth‐Critical Review
ABSTRACT This article examines urban–rural linkages from a growth‐critical perspective to identify their diverse powers for ensuring sustainable futures. While urban–rural linkages are a well‐established object of study and have been considered from various perspectives, they have historically been viewed through a growth‐oriented lens, reinforcing ...

Late Quaternary climate legacies in contemporary plant functional composition [PDF]
The functional composition of plant communities is commonly thought to be determined by contemporary climate. However, if rates of climate‐driven immigration and/or exclusion of species are slow, then contemporary functional composition may be explained ...

Abstract Social‐ecological systems (SES) are coupled systems formed by the intricate interactions between humans and nature. Our movement towards sustainable lifestyles requires a robust understanding of these interactions. Achieving a sustainable win‐win situation for both social and ecological systems, therefore, necessitates a sound scientific ...

Interlinkages Between Agri‐Food Trade and the SDGs at the Global, Regional and Local Level
ABSTRACT This study is a structured review on the interlinkages between agri‐food trade and the SDGs in the environmental, social and economic dimensions to identify any missed opportunities that agri‐food trade could positively impact the SDGs and provide policy guidance for the missed opportunities at the global, regional and national levels. A great
