点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The present study aimed at reconstructing complementary relationship between environmental conservation and poverty mitigation in terms of land use by examining long-term land use dynamics at villages in the mountainous region of Mainland Southeast Asia. It is concluded that the careful understanding of rationality created through the irrational compromising process among the regional, national and local driving forces of land use change is a key to achieve area-specific synthesis between environmental conservation and economic development.
