We contend that it is now possible to list a group of possible multi scale indicators for stewardship, diversity and aesthetics.
To address the challenges of adaptive management in forest ecosystems, we tested the ability of a small set of multi-scale indicators to inform management of Minnesota's Northern Great Lakes forest.
We have therefore developed a method based on a set of multi-scale indicators to assess the contribution of agriculture to the sustainable development of regions, and its evolution over time.
We found that combining both types of indicators within a multi-scale conservation planning framework would help to inform policy making in the region.
It proves that the multi-scale cross entropy can be an effective indicator on globally characterizing the nonlinear dynamics in oil-in-water emulsions at the pipe cross section.
It is a multi-stakeholder, multi-variable, multi-scale problem.
The framework comprises a resource flow model that links production processes to specific locations, multi-scale impact assessment to derive regional and global sustainability indicators, and multi-criteria evaluation balancing the preferences of different stakeholders.
We present a novel methodological framework for SA, based on a literature meta-review of multi-scale and multi-purpose appraisal methodologies, models and indicators.
In this paper, a spatially and temporally explicit multi-scale decision support system that reveals the biophysical indicators affecting land use choices of these different stakeholders, is explained and demonstrated.
These characteristics include multi-scale, multi-directional, and multi-precision.
Waterbirds are key bio-indicators for globally threatened wetland ecosystems but their multi-scale habitat selection mechanisms have rarely been studied.
