R. Padró ; E. Tello ; I. Marco ; J.R. Olarieta ; M.M. Grasa ; C. Font |There is a need for a socioecological transition towards sustainable agri-food systems that recover the organic functioning and the closure of socio-metabolic cycles at the lower feasible scales. This implies an agroecology leap forward aimed at[...]Article
Cet article aborde la problématique des ressources en eau à la lumière des changements climatiques dans le moyen Sebou. Où se situe la relation entre ces ressources et les précipitations à lumière du changement climatique ? Cette étude est basée[...]Article
Rewilding and restoring cultural landscapes in Mediterranean mountains: opportunities and challenges
Farmland abandonment and the decline of livestock activity in the Mediterranean mountains have resulted in dramatic landscape changes, including the generalized expansion of shrublands and forests, and the homogenization of the old cultural land[...]Article
A. Tomaz ; P. Palma ; S. Fialho ; A. Lima ; P. Alvarenga ; M. Potes ; M.J. Costa ; R. Salgado |Salinization and sodification are important processes of soil degradation affecting irrigated lands. A large proportion of the global irrigated area is affected by some degree of soil salinity or sodicity caused by the intensification of irrigat[...]Article
Coastal areas are worldwide characterized by multiple pressures generated by high levels of urbanization and by conflictual and inappropriate uses. The establishment of protected areas represents a tool to contrast such pressures. The integratio[...]Article
L. Delattre ; M. Debolini ; J.-C. Paoli ; C. Napoleone ; M. Moulery ; L. Leonelli ; P. Santucci |Farm abandonment and over-extensification trends in less-favored livestock breeding areas in the Mediterranean have led to socio-environmental issues that are difficult to assess and address, due to the characteristics of these areas (e.g., poor[...]Article
C. Labrousse ; W. Ludwig ; S. Pinel ; M. Sadaoui ; G. Lacquement |In the Mediterranean, climate change and human pressures are expected to significantly impact the availability of surface water resources. In order to quantify these impacts during the last 60 years (19592018), we examined the hydro-climatic an[...]Article
Fisheries are among the sectors hardest-hit by the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) crisis due to the sudden decrease in the demand for seafood. This study employs demand-driven and supply-driven input-output models to conduct an economy-wide ass[...]Article

Polcher |Droughts can have strong environmental and socio-economic impacts in the Mediterranean region, in particular for countries relying on rain-fed agricultural production, but also in areas in which irrigation plays an important role and in which na[...]Article
La région méditerranéenne, l'un des 34 points chauds du monde (hot spots), représente une diversité biologique exceptionnelle soulignée récemment face à la crise actuelle d'extinction d'espèces due à des changements globaux et aux facteurs anthr[...]Article
Does conversion to organic farming impact vineyards yield? A diachronic study in Southeastern France
Given the need to reduce pesticide use and rising consumer demand for healthy food, organic vineyard areas have increased since 2000. Converting to organic farming requires numerous changes in pest and disease management, fertilization and weedi[...]Article
Olive groves form characteristic Mediterranean socio-ecological landscapes, occupying more than 5 M ha; 2.5 M ha in Spain. In recent decades, traditional extensive management of olive groves has shifted to an intensive regime, with some cases of[...]Article
The agricultural landscape of Mediterranean islands has transformed radically over the last 60 years. The results differ, due to the interplay of macro, national, and local factors for each setting. In this study, some of these trajectories of c[...]Article
A. Panozzo ; H. Huang ; B. Bernazeau ; T. Vamerali ; M.F. Samson ; D. Desclaux |In the current context of climate change, tree–crop combinations in agroforestry systems are suggested to mitigate water and heat stresses, particularly in semi-arid environments of the Mediterranean area. In this framework, a 3-year trial[...]Article
The recent trends in the tourism industry, as well as the attention paid by scholars, practitioners, and institutions, show the relevance of natural tourism as a lever for local development (United Nations World Tourism Organization -UNWTO-, 200[...]Article
F. Pedrero ; S.R. Grattan ; A. Ben-Gal ; G.A. Vivaldi |Olive trees are iconic to the Mediterranean landscape and in recent times, have expanded to other regions across the globe that share similar climatic conditions. Olive oil production benefits from irrigation, but with a changing climate and unc[...]Article
We present for the first time the environmental footprint (EF) of grapes following the methodology proposed by the EU and life cycle assessment (LCA). We used data from three different production systems, conventional high- or low-input and orga[...]Article
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are a conservation tool that are increasingly commonplace around the world. MPAs have the potential to benefit both ecosystems and human communities if well-designed and implemented. Achieving effective implementati[...]Article
