山区正面临着日益严峻的环境、社会和经济挑战。因此,需要有效的政策和管理方法来保护其居民、生态系统、生物多样性及其所支持的生计。这些政策和方法的制定和实施需要对山区社会生态系统特有的自然与人的相互作用有深入的了解和广泛的认识。本文运用生物多样性与生态系统服务政府间科学政策平台的概念框架,对631份摘要中生物多样性、生态系统服务、人类福祉和变化驱动因素之间相互作用的内容进行了评估和比较,并提出了一套研究建议。我们对安第斯山脉、东非山脉、欧洲阿尔卑斯山脉和兴都库什-喜马拉雅山脉的文献进行了比较评估。它揭示了山地系统之间有趣的差异,特别是在文献中对变化的个人驱动因素和沿海拔梯度提供的生态系统服务的相对重要性。在分析的基础上,参考山地社会生态系统的备选概念框架,提出了未来的研究方向和选择。我们特别建议改善生物多样性信息,产生关于生态系统服务的空间明确知识,沿着海拔梯度整合知识和行动,产生关于全球变化驱动因素相互作用的知识,提供与可持续山区发展转型行动相关的知识,并使用综合概念和共同设计的方法来有效解决知识差距。
Mountains are facing growing environmental, social, and economic challenges. Accordingly, effective policies and management approaches are needed to safeguard their inhabitants, their ecosystems, their biodiversity, and the livelihoods they support. The formulation and implementation of such policies and approaches requires a thorough understanding of, and extensive knowledge about, the interactions between nature and people particular to mountain social–ecological systems. Here, we applied the conceptual framework of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services to assess and compare the contents of 631 abstracts on the interactions among biodiversity, ecosystem services, human wellbeing, and drivers of change, and formulate a set of research recommendations. Our comparative assessment of literature pertained to the Andes, the East African mountains, the European Alps, and the Hindu Kush Himalaya. It revealed interesting differences between mountain systems, in particular in the relative importance given in the literature to individual drivers of change and to the ecosystem services delivered along elevational gradients. Based on our analysis and with reference to alternative conceptual frameworks of mountain social–ecological systems, we propose future research directions and options. In particular, we recommend improving biodiversity information, generating spatially explicit knowledge on ecosystem services, integrating knowledge and action along elevational gradients, generating knowledge on interacting effects of global change drivers, delivering knowledge that is relevant for transformative action toward sustainable mountain development, and using comprehensive concepts and codesigned approaches to effectively address knowledge gaps.
