Abstract

Human migration is both a consequence and a cause of environmental change. Related scientific and policy discourse focuses largely on international and urban migration, while rural migration receives far less attention. This is despite rural mobility being a key adaptive strategy for smallholders globally in the face of climate, environmental and social change. The integration of migration studies and land system science may serve to advance understanding of rural migration processes, and in turn advance the science of the fields themselves. Such efforts are relevant in an increasingly mobile world where new models and theory will be needed to meaningfully understand migration dynamics within sustainable socio-environmental systems. Migration has become a key research topic in recent years, but rural migration is relatively understudied despite the vast number of people and areas affected around the world. This Perspective lays out critical dimensions and dynamics that are worth examining.

气候和土地系统变化下的农村人口迁移

人类迁徙既是环境变化的结果，也是环境变化的原因。相关的科学和政策讨论主要集中在国际和城市移民方面，而对农村移民的关注则少得多。尽管农村人口流动是全球小农户面对气候、环境和社会变迁时的一项重要适应策略，但这一现象仍然存在。将移民研究与土地系统科学结合起来，有助于加深对农村移民过程的理解，进而推动这两个领域本身的科学发展。在一个流动性越来越强的世界里，需要新的模式和理论来切实理解可持续社会环境系统中的迁移动态，而这些努力与此息息相关。近年来，人口迁移已成为一个重要的研究课题，但尽管全球受影响的人口和地区数量庞大，对农村人口迁移的研究却相对不足。本视角阐述了值得研究的关键因素和动态。

期刊介绍： Nature Sustainability aims to facilitate cross-disciplinary dialogues and bring together research fields that contribute to understanding how we organize our lives in a finite world and the impacts of our actions. Nature Sustainability will not only publish fundamental research but also significant investigations into policies and solutions for ensuring human well-being now and in the future.Its ultimate goal is to address the greatest challenges of our time.
