The Future of Human-Landscape Systems - Part 2
Offered By: AGU via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the future of human-landscape systems in this 59-minute conference session from the 2012 AGU Fall Meeting. Delve into topics such as driving forces shaping landscapes, global landscape changes in the Anthropocene, and the challenges of environmental management. Examine concepts like the technosphere, logistic landscapes, and geoengineering. Investigate nonlinear dynamics, scale separation, and dissipation in human-landscape interactions. Consider the effectiveness of environmental management strategies and explore possibilities for sustainability through direct action activism. Gain insights from invited speakers discussing cutting-edge research and provocative questions about the future of Earth's landscapes.
