Abstract:
... Understanding and quantifying ES flows is essential for the sustainable management of social-ecological systems, as it directly captures the human-nature interactions within the system and not solely its individual elements. Especially in degrading marine systems, most ES assessments focus solely on either biophysical or socio-economic elements of these social-ecological systems, failing to direct ...

Abstract:
... Urban green infrastructure (UGI), designed and implemented to improve sustainability and reduce vulnerability to natural hazards, are increasingly advocated as win–win solutions. These have indeed proven to be desirable to complement grey infrastructure in urban areas. However, it is becoming apparent that the implementation of UGI also involves unique obstacles and unintended outcomes. In this pr ...

Abstract:
... Important advances have been made to define the multiple impact pathways relating mineral resource use to the area of protection (AoP) natural resources in life cycle assessment (LCA). Yet, the link between stakeholders’ interests and the aspects relevant to resource use as addressed by existing impact assessment methods has so far only marginally been explored. This article proposes to go beyond ...

Abstract:
... Formalisation of the artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector has come to dominate the discourse on mineral exhaustion, livelihoods, and the persistence of vulnerabilities in ASM settings. Often touted as a panacea to curbing the excesses of informal mining operations, the calls for the formalisation of ASM operations continue unabated. In this paper, we explore how the operations and managem ...

Abstract:
... Growing urban as well as rural uncertainties in sub-Saharan Africa have increased the importance of the household and kinship relations as providers of welfare and social security. Households therefore may be increasingly stretched across space. This points to the need to analyse the interplay between socio-economic differentiation and translocality. The article uses a mixed methods approach, comb ...
