Mountain farming sustains human well-being by providing various ecosystem services (ES). In the last decades, socio-economic developments have led to worldwide changes in land-use/cover (LULC), but the related effects on ES have not been fully e[...]Article
Agricultural land abandonment and its impacts on landscape features have been a striking characteristic of many European rural areas over the last decades. Although previous research identified drivers and environmental impacts of abandonment, f[...]Article
Grasslands can significantly contribute to climate mitigation. However, recent trends indicate that human activities have switched their net cooling effect to a warming effect due to management intensification and land conversion. This indicates[...]Article

Under particular socioecological and policy contexts, changes in demography may promote land[...]Article
A. Biarnès ; J.-S. Bailly ; I. Mekki ; I. Ferchichi |CONTEXT In cultivated landscapes, land use patterns related to the diversity of crops, their spatial arrangement into patches and their succession over several years influence many biophysical processes and the production of ecosystem services a[...]Article

Parras-Alcantara |Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays an important role in the global C cycle, as well as in the maintenance and improvement of the soil quality. Over time, special attention has been paid to it in the study of the SOC reserves worldwide; however, red[...]Article
European traditional cultural landscapes are increasingly modified by rural abandonment and urban growth processes. Acknowledged as of High Nature Value for providing multiple ecosystem services while contributing to human well-being, the future[...]Article
C.M. Viana ; M. Santos ; D. Freire ; P. Abrantes ; J. Rocha |To effectively plan and manage the use of agricultural land, it is crucial to identify and evaluate the multiple human and environmental factors that influence it. In this study, we propose a model framework to identify the factors potentially e[...]Article
Modelling future change to land use and land cover is done as part of many local and global scenario environmental assessments. Nevertheless, there are still considerable challenges related to simulating land-use responses to climate change. Mos[...]Article
Leffacement du couvert végétal dans les steppes de lEst marocain, territoire vulnérable par nature en situation très déplorée, est subséquent aux phénomènes de défrichement et de mise en culture, de surcharge animale, de mitage urbain et de la[...]Article
Enhancing social and economic development while preserving nature is one of the most significant challenges for humankind in the current century [...]Article
A. Gemitzi ; A. Gemitzi ; R. Albarakat ; F. Kratouna ; V. Lakshmi |Evaluation of carbon sequestration in various land cover types is a valuable tool for environmental policies targeting towards minimization of CO2 emissions and climate change impacts. For the past few decades, remotely sensed information on lan[...]Article
Land abandonment is affecting several areas of Europe, and the issue has since some years become a policy objective. The consequences of land abandonment are however difficult to assess as both agriculture and land abandonment are linked to soci[...]Article
The Tlemcen region is characterized by very diverse and steep areas exposed to gravity hazards, especially in high and medium mountain areas. Tlemcen National Park was chosen for this study, the main objective of which is to map fragile areas in[...]Article
Le bassin versant de lOued Guigou connait des facteurs dévolution généraux. Jusquà une époque récente, aucune menace significative na pesé sur la stabilité de ce bassin versant. Aujourdhui, cet équilibre est devenu précaire et on peut voir [...]Article
The Covid-19 pandemic newly brings food resilience in cities to our attention and the need to question the desired degree of food self-sufficiency through urban agriculture. While these questions are by no means new and periodically entering the[...]Article

Parsons |The development of a coherent and coordinated policy for the management of large socio-agricultural systems, such as the Mekong delta in southern Vietnam, is reliant on aligning the development, delivery, and implementation of policy on national[...]Article
Rural Development Plan (RDP) measures support farmers in improving the sustainability of their agricultural holdings. The implementation of these policies has economic, social, and environmental impacts, which are monitored either ex-ante, ongoi[...]Article
Greening payment represents one of the main and controversial novelties of the current Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) 20152020 programming period. Such payments bind a portion of farm subsidies to compliance with specified practices, such as [...]Article
M. Rabelo ; M. Debolini ; R. Villani ; T. Sabbatini ; N. Silvestri |The study aims to describe and interpret the agricultural system dynamics on the Western Mediterranean areas in terms of occupied land and crop specialization, by using the available data from the two last agricultural censuses. From the spatial[...]Article

Darwich |This study aims to implement the Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) concept on a test site: the 309 km2 Nahr Ibrahim watershed Lebanon, by integrating soil erosion as an LDN indicator given its status as a land degradation driver and common conce[...]Article
The evolution of farm size and land use are important determinants of the efficiency and profitability of agriculture and the configuration of the territory. In this paper, a conceptual framework of the evolution of the number of farms and land [...]Article
Terraced landscapes were for centuries forms of sustainable and multifunctional land management, results of a long and intimate relationship between peoples and their environment. They demonstrated a rich cultural diversity and agrobiodiversity [...]Article

Casas Ponsati |In coastal watersheds, services and landuse favour coastal tourism and urbanization, depriving rural upstream of infrastructure and attention. This unbalanced management leads to an intensification of socioeconomic changes that generate a struct[...]Article
The fast and broad adoption of mechanization and chemical inputs in Mediterranean terraced agriculture, combined with warming climate trends, has led to the progressive degradation of environmental and social conditions. These factors have concu[...]Article
