Ecosystem service trade-offs and synergies misunderstood without landscape history
Dramatic changes in ecosystem services have motivated recent work characterizing their interactions, including identifying trade-offs and synergies. Although time is arguably implicit in these ideas of trade-offs and synergies (e.g., temporal dynamics or changes in ecosystem services), such interactions are routinely inferred based on the spatial relationships among ecosystem services alone (e....
متن کاملIdentifying potential synergies and trade-offs for meeting food security and climate change objectives in sub-Saharan Africa.
Potential interactions between food production and climate mitigation are explored for two situations in sub-Saharan Africa, where deforestation and land degradation overlap with hunger and poverty. Three agriculture intensification scenarios for supplying nitrogen to increase crop production (mineral fertilizer, herbaceous legume cover crops--green manures--and agroforestry--legume improved tr...
متن کاملInformation security trade-offs and optimal patching policies
We develop and simulate a basic mathematical model of the costly deployment of software patches in the presence of trade-offs between confidentiality and availability. The model incorporates representations of the key aspects of the system architecture, the managers’ preferences, and the stochastic nature of the threat environment. Using the model, we compute the optimal frequencies for regular...
متن کاملTrade-offs in Ecosystem-scale Optimization of Fisheries Management Policies
Recent applications of ecosystem models have had some apparent success evaluating how fisheries and environmental changes have affected marine populations, and a stage has been reached where ecosystem models can be used to describe agents of mortality and trophic interdependencies in the marine environment with some credibility. This success has raised the stakes for modeling and caused its foc...
متن کاملModelling trade offs between public and private conservation policies
To reduce global biodiversity loss, there is an urgent need to determine the most efficient allocation of conservation resources. Recently, there has been a growing trend for many governments to supplement public ownership and management of reserves with incentive programs for conservation on private land. At the same time, policies to promote conservation on private land are rarely evaluated i...
