Description:
This is part of the Land Systems Science Symposium. Building on previous Land Systems Science Symposiums at the AAG meetings in Los Angeles (2013), Chicago (2015), Boston (2017), and Washington DC (2019), the 2023 Land Systems Science Symposium in Denver will focus on advances in research on land systems and land systems change, focusing particularly on geographic perspectives. The scope and contribution of land systems science and land change science have grown rapidly in the last few years, in basic and strategic research as well as in management and policy at local, regional, national and international scales. Land systems science also provides insights into human-environment interactions and sustainability.
The symposium will concentrate on advances in our understanding of the nature, dynamics and changes in land systems as coupled human and environmental systems. This includes:
· Land system responses to driving factors related to globalization, including global trade, migration, demographic change, environmental changes, biodiversity losses, telecoupling;
· The nature, rates, and patterns of land-use and land-cover change, and associated impacts on land and water;
· Relationships between land systems, land management, and socio-ecological resilience;
· The role and potential of land systems science as an integral part of sustainability science, and contributions to addressing food, water, energy and environmental security;
· Intersections of Land Change Science, Political Ecology, Historical Geography, and other related fields surrounding land use and livelihoods;
· Methodological developments in description of land systems and in the measurement and monitoring of changes;
· Land systems science at the interface of normative and policy concerns - insights, contributions and continuing gaps;
· Indigenous perspectives on land, resource management, and sustainability;
· Uses of advanced GIS/remote sensing and modelling technologies;
· The increased availability of datasets (including Citizen Science), and increasing capability for modelling and analysis of change, that offer new insights into land systems and the nature of change;
· Sustainable land systems and landscapes, including analysis and design.
