| Abstract： | Understanding and managing landscape dynamics (for example, spatiotemporal fluxes in abiotic and biotic features within watersheds) is critical to ensure the sustainability of ecosystems and human well-being. This perspective underscores the importance of integrating landscape dynamics into global sustainability strategies, emphasizing the interplay between ecosystems and socioeconomic values. Exploration of how natural and human systems are connected via abiotic and biotic flows can result in improved understanding and management of connections across landscapes. The novelty of this approach lies in its holistic framework for managing landscape dynamics and enhancing resilience to global change. By managing the complex dynamics among human-natural systems, we can unlock their potential to maximize essential socioeconomic benefits and address the impacts of environmental change. |
