项目摘要

Grassland biomes are rapidly being lost around the world as they are converted to croplands, mined, and grazed by domesticated livestock. In a few grassland areas, thousands of years of use by native herders has resulted in management systems that are sustainable over time. These systems have become examples of resilient integrated socio-environmental systems. This study investigates features of a human-pastoral system that may demonstrate resiliency, thereby promoting sustainability. Sounds of wind, thunder, ice breaking, deer, and birds, among others, can be used by herders to determine when to move to summer landscapes, or if damaging weather may threaten herds or homes. Herders pass on this knowledge through calls and songs that codify information about the environment through multiple generations. This traditional ecological knowledge has helped herders balance the use of grasslands and its productivity. As herders abandon their historical way of life and lose these traditional forms of knowledge, what does this loss of knowledge mean for the future of how grasslands are managed sustainably? This study will answer this and other questions by evaluating critical aspects of the soundscape-pastoralist-grassland system in a large intact grassland system. The information gained from the research will provide insight that is valuable to grassland managers. The investigators plan to disseminate findings widely, including to students and the general public, on how human-grassland systems can be managed sustainably. This project co-engages researchers and herders as co-discoverers of knowledge that provides critical information to help understand the coupling, decoupling and potential for recoupling of the pastoral-grassland system. Unique aspects of this work include the use of sound as a "universal variable" across natural, social, and cultural components, the use of soundscapes to monitor the status of the grassland system using passive acoustic sensors and acoustic content analysis, and the use of ethnomusicological approaches to understand the role that sonic practices have on this integrated system and the traditional ecological knowledge of herders. The merit of the work results from the use of sound to measure the dynamics across human and natural systems, the transdisciplinary nature of the team members and approaches and the co-production of knowledge with local grassland stewards. It holds the potential to clarify the role of complex social and environmental interactions in sustainable living.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

草地生物群落正在迅速消失在世界各地，因为它们被转换为农田，采矿和放牧的驯化牲畜。在少数草原地区，当地牧民数千年的使用已经形成了可持续的管理系统。这些系统已成为具有复原力的综合社会环境系统的范例。本研究探讨了人类牧区系统的特点，可能表现出弹性，从而促进可持续性。风、雷、破冰、鹿和鸟的声音等，可以被牧民用来确定何时迁移到夏季景观，或者破坏性的天气是否会威胁到牛群或家园。牧民通过电话和歌曲将这些知识传递给几代人，将有关环境的信息编成法典。这种传统的生态知识帮助牧民平衡草地的使用和生产力。随着牧民放弃了他们的历史生活方式，失去了这些传统形式的知识，这种知识的丧失对如何可持续地管理草原的未来意味着什么？本研究将回答这个问题和其他问题，通过评估一个大型完整的草原系统的音景-牧民-草原系统的关键方面。从研究中获得的信息将为草原管理者提供有价值的见解。研究人员计划广泛传播研究结果，包括向学生和公众传播，以了解如何可持续地管理人类-草原系统。该项目让研究人员和牧民共同参与，作为知识的共同发现者，提供关键信息，帮助了解牧场-草地系统的耦合、脱钩和重新耦合的潜力。这项工作的独特之处包括使用声音作为自然，社会和文化组成部分的“通用变量”，使用声景来监测草原系统的状态，使用被动声学传感器和声学内容分析，以及使用民族音乐学方法来了解声音实践对这个综合系统和牧民传统生态知识的作用。这项工作的优点在于使用声音来测量人类和自然系统的动态，团队成员和方法的跨学科性质以及与当地草原管理员共同制作知识。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
