Their analysis demonstrates the importance of combining transparency for stakeholders and strict enforcement for species conservation in efforts to facilitate species persistence in the face of human land use. (science.sciencemag.org)
As the temporal scale is extended, the development of dynamic vegetation models, which respond to climate and human land use as well as other changes, is a central issue. (ipcc.ch)
Then, they calculated how well those variables predicted four common modes of human land use in Asia, Africa, Europe, and Australia: farming, sedentary animal husbandry, nomadic wandering, and hunting and gathering. (sciencemag.org)
