鉴于正在发生的不良变化的速度和程度，管理综合社会生态系统以减少对人类和环境福祉的风险仍然具有挑战性。开发充分整合的框架来指导研究，以提供对所有关键系统方面的必要见解是一项重要的突出任务。在现有的方法中，弹性和联系框架都可以关注系统中跨尺度和层次的关系，并强调不同群体在不同程度上参与决策。它们也有弱点，而且这两种方法都没有明确地将社会正义考虑作为其核心。这对于理解在不同决策中谁是赢家谁是输家，以及社会和生态风险和权衡是如何在时间和空间上分担和分布的，具有重要意义。本文在概念上整合了复原力和联系方法，开发了一个综合框架，并指出如何在山地和红树林社会生态系统中有效地实施。在这样做的过程中，它促进了对基于风险的决策的复杂社会生态系统框架的理解，而不仅仅是通过使用恢复力或联系方法来实现。测试框架的重要后续步骤涉及经验和实地操作，需要跨学科的混合方法方法。
Managing integrated social‐ecological systems to reduce risks to human and environmental well‐being remains challenging in light of the rate and extent of undesirable changes that are occurring. Developing frameworks that are sufficiently integrative to guide research to deliver the necessary insights into all key system aspects is an important outstanding task. Among existing approaches, resilience and nexus framings both allow focus on unpacking relationships across scales and levels in a system and emphasize the involvement of different groups in decision making to different extents. They also suffer weaknesses and neither approach puts social justice considerations explicitly at its core. This has important implications for understanding who wins and loses out from different decisions and how social and ecological risks and trade‐offs are shared and distributed, temporally and spatially. This paper conceptually integrates resilience and nexus approaches, developing a combined framework and indicating how it could effectively be operationalized in cases from mountain and mangrove social‐ecological systems. In doing so, it advances understanding of complex social‐ecological systems framings for risk‐based decision making beyond that which could be achieved through use of either resilience or nexus approaches alone. Important next steps in testing the framework involve empirical and field operationalization, requiring interdisciplinary, mixed method approaches.
