Historical perspectives on landscape and contemporary planning challenges : how landscape dynamics and the landscape’s past can contribute to current landscape planning por Brånhult, Anna

“…In the case study, changes in land use, landscape functions and driving forces are investigated, and furthermore discussed with the terminology of time-geography and the landscape as a budget frame. Some of the conclusions are that knowledge about landscape dynamics and the landscape’s past can contribute to the search for landscape identity, and the understanding of the landscape’s dependence on history, as well as its significance for the future. …”

Advancing forest-based carbon trading in Nepal: Policy challenges and agroforestry opportunities por Chaudhary, Arbind, Babu, Suresh Chandra

“…Although several national policy documents have emphasized the urgency of mitigation and adaptation, climate action remains fragmented and significantly underfunded. Nepal’s unique geography—spanning the Himalayas, mid-hills, and Tarai plains—together with recent decentralization reforms offers a favorable context for implementing localized, context-specific solutions to climate threats. …”

Interactions between breeding system and ploidy affect niche breadth in Solanum por Fumia, Nathan, Rubinoff, Daniel, Zenil-Ferguson, Rosana, Khoury, Colin K., Pironon, Samuel, Gore, Michael A., Kantar, Michael B.

“…Understanding the factors driving ecological and evolutionary interactions of economically important plant species is important for agricultural sustainability. The geography of crop wild relatives, including wild potatoes (Solanum section Petota), have received attention; however, such information has not been analysed in combination with phylogenetic histories, genomic composition and reproductive systems to identify potential species for use in breeding for abiotic stress tolerance. …”

Food systems transformation, animal-source foods consumption, inequality, and nutrition in Myanmar por Scott, Jessica M., Belton, Ben, Mahrt, Kristi, Thilsted, Shakuntala H., Bogard, Jessica R.

“…We use data from two nationally representative consumption surveys conducted in 2010 and 2015 and food composition tables to estimate the contributions of ASF to estimated average requirements (EARs) of key nutrients among population subgroups differentiated by geography and economic status. We find: (1) Little change in the average quantity of ASF consumed per individual, but substantial changes in the composition of the ASF consumed. (2) Increasing rural–urban and income-linked inequality in quantities of ASF and associated nutrients consumed. (3) Declines in the adequacy of intakes of five out of eight micronutrients (calcium, iron, zinc, thiamine, vitamin B12) and small increases in two (selenium and vitamin A), due to the changing composition of ASF; most importantly, reductions in the supply of diverse aquatic foods from capture fisheries and increasing availability of intensively reared chicken. (4) Elevated levels of ASF-derived total fat and sodium consumption among better-off consumers, suggesting an emerging triple burden of malnutrition. …”
