Aquatic macrophytes: restore, eradicate or is there a compromise? (2002, background): “It should be stressed that in practice the political solution of a conflict of interests, does often not coincide with the optimum environmental economic solution, as presented here, due to various socio-economic mechanisms (Scheffer et al., 2000).”
Can forest management based on natural disturbances maintain ecological resilience (2006, background): “Implementing these elements in a management regime that maintains resilience may be easier for forests than for other resources such as fisheries or grazing grounds because forest inventories are easily tractable, there is ample knowledge about ecosystem function and dynamics, and social willingness”
Insight, part of a Special Feature on Ecosystem Service Trade-offs across Global Contexts and Scales A sustainability framework for assessing trade-offs in ecosystem services (2015, background): “…frameworks for the systematic assessment of the likelihood of institutional arrangements leading toward sustainability (e.g., Ostrom 2009) and models predicting the outcome based on differences in the organizational power of stakeholder groups (e.g., Scheffer et al. 2000) are also available.”
Robustness Trade-offs in Social-Ecological Systems (2007, background): “Resilience has become an important concept in the study of both particular SES’s (Carpenter et al. 1999a 1999b; Scheffer et al. 2000; Anderies et al. 2002; Janssen et al. 2004; Carpenter and Brock 2004; Walker et al. 2004; Anderies 2005; Anderies et al. 2006; Folke 2006; Gunderson et al. 1995;…”
Indicating fragility of socio-ecological tourism-based systems (2006, background): “Ecosystems change in response to the stress imposed by human use, and human societies try to adjust their behaviour affecting ecosystems in response to perceived changes in these systems (Scheffer et al., 2000).”
