Global Change and the
World’s MountainsPerth – Scotland – 26-30 September 2010
Some initial conclusions
• Drivers: greatest focus on global environmental change
• Primary natural science emphasis: ecosystems and
interactions within them
• Few papers on social systems consider global drivers
• Quite a lot of papers on institutions/decision-making
• Rather few papers focusing on resources/land use; more
on how changes in resources/land use drive environmental
changes
• Relatively few papers consider entire socio-ecological
systems/processes (driven by global change)
• Systems > Target > Transformation knowledge
