Forest Landscape Ecology and Global Change: What are the Next Steps.Climate change, land use change, and many other drivers of landscape modification are occurring at increasing rates globally. They affect ecological patterns and processes in forest landscapes, and modify ecosystem services derived from those ecosystems. All of this presents many new challenges to scientists and managers. Although it is not uncommon to encounter the terms “global change” and “landscape” together in the ecological literature, there has been no adequate global analysis of drivers of change in forest landscapes and their ecological consequences. Providing such an analysis is the goal of this volume: an exploration of the state of knowledge of global changes in forested landscapes, with an emphasis on their causes and effects, and the challenges faced by researchers and land managers who must cope with these changes.Landscape ecologyClimate changeForestry managementConservation biologyEcology Environmental managementLandscape Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19058Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Forestry Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22016Conservation Biology/Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150Environmental Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009Landscape ecology.Climate change.Forestry management.Conservation biology.Ecology .Environmental management.Landscape Ecology.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Forestry Management.Conservation Biology/Ecology.Environmental Management.333.7333.75551.6570Azevedo João Cedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPerera Ajith Hedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPinto M.
