At the same time, social research explains how local knowledge, livelihoods, adoption, public services, and environmental justice shape intervention outcomes. Ecological studies examine biodiversity, wetlands, forests, soils, ecosystem services, carbon storage, and fragmentation, identifying practical pathways such as agroforestry, conservation agriculture, green infrastructure, nature-based solutions, urban forestry, and restoration, alongside trade-offs involving production, urbanisation, energy, property values, and carbon sequestration. Remote sensing, GIS, modelling, artificial intelligence, and scenario tools support hazard mapping, attribution, forecasting, and intervention planning.

This study takes the Lancang-Mekong River Basin (LMRB) as a typical case, employing optimization and Ecosystem Service Valuation (ESV) methods to analyze land-population relationship from 2001 to 2018 and explore potential policy implications. The results show that: (1) Post-flood LULC in LMRB faced an average ESV reduction of approximately 0.03 USD/person, with forest loss being the primary driver, contributing a total of 0.04 USD/person in ecosystem services. Impervious surfaces and tree/shrub cover cropland each resulted in an additional 0.04 USD/person ESV decline. (2) In the baseline scenario, total ESV in the LMRB increased by about 6 % compared to the original post-flood LULC, mainly driven by a 11.23 % expansion of swamp areas. Under different policy scenarios, the double-strict policy (70 % basic needs and 110 % highest needs) achieved a 9.28 % ESV increase, slightly higher than the baseline. Double-relaxed policy (90 % basic needs and 130 % highest needs) only led to a 3.24 % increase. Mixed policies, such as strict basic needs (70 %) combined with relaxed highest needs (130 %), yielded a 9.73 % ESV increase, while the relaxed basic needs (90 %) and strict highest needs (110 %) scenario also resulted in a 3.24 % increase. (3) Under high urbanization requirements, ESV increased by 4 % but cropland area decreased by 20 %. In contrast, high agricultural requirements caused a 1.81 % ESV decrease despite a 10 % increase in cropland, as forest and swamp experienced significant reductions. The forest expansion scenario showed a slight ESV increase but a 20 % decrease in grassland. This study provides valuable insights and guidance for post-flood LULC management, addressing the challenging land-population relationship in transboundary river basins.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17933,"journal":{"name":"Land Use Policy","volume":"165 ","pages":"Article 107977"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146160368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the carbon sink capacity of land ecosystems is dynamic and uncertain, and its conservation is management-intensive and livelihood-impacting. This calls for more reliable evidence on future carbon sink dynamics and feasible policies for their conservation. This study evaluated spatial priorities for future carbon sink conservation in China by predicting carbon sink capacity from 2020 to 2100 using machine-learning models, while also mapping potential costs associated with management and population impacts. We found that intensified climate change may undermine future carbon sink capacity across extensive regions. Prioritised conservation areas were identified primarily in central, southern, and northeastern China, covering 8 %, 21.3 %, and 33.9 % of the country under conservative, moderate, and ambitious conservation targets, respectively. There is a modest synergy between priorities for carbon sink and biodiversity conservation, with a correlation coefficient of 0.515 and a spatial overlap of 9.9 %–42.6 % depending on conservation target levels. For actionable policies, we recommend focusing intensive management on just 12.6 % of China’s land, which aligns well with existing national ecological restoration projects. These findings provide evidence-based and feasible policies for carbon sink conservation in a resource-constrained country, with implications discussed for developing countries worldwide.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17933,"journal":{"name":"Land Use Policy","volume":"165 ","pages":"Article 107974"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146154223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the first leftist federal government, public programs such as <em>Sembrando Vida</em> (Sowing Life) and <em>Producción para el Bienestar</em> (Production for Wellbeing) were introduced to improve peasants’ living conditions and environmental sustainability. Both programs require substantial budgetary allocations, and have been the focus of polarized national and international debates. However, few studies have assessed their performance empirically. Here, we analyze both programs in contrast to traditional management in an indigenous coffee-growing area of Veracruz (Sierra de Zongolica). Specifically, we 1) use the Q-method to explore socio-environmental perceptions about the programs’ scope and limitations, 2) analyze the sustainability of plot managements through an evaluation framework, and 3) quantify forest-cover changes through the use of GIS. Four distinct groups of social perceptions were identified: program defenders, proactive critics, pragmatists, and absolute critics. The key finding from the sustainability assessment is that there is no existing ideal agroforestry coffee model, instead, public programs and traditional managements exhibit considerable potential for complementarity through exchange of knowledge and practices. Forest loss occurred mainly at the initial phase of <em>Sembrando Vida</em>, after which the rate of loss decreased. We attribute that decrease to the farmers’ tradition of adaptive agroforestry management. Drawing on the case study, the conclusions assess the key successes and remaining opportunities within both land-use policies, especially in agrarian terms, the integration of local agriculture knowledge and practices, and the potential for cross-territorial exchange between the programs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17933,"journal":{"name":"Land Use Policy","volume":"165 ","pages":"Article 107978"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146154225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, these private outdoor spaces are autonomously managed by many individual gardeners, often prioritizing aesthetics and maintenance convenience, rather than environmental considerations. Understanding how people manage their gardens, and why they make certain gardening decisions is crucial for unlocking the climate adaptation potential of gardens, shedding light on the current situation and identifying opportunities for change. Unfortunately, limited research has been conducted on the personal drivers behind gardeners’ decisions. Therefore, our research aims at unveiling current gardening practices and their drivers through an online citizen science survey of Flemish domestic garden owners (n = 827). Using a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach, we studied how motivations, knowledge, spatial- and socio-economic factors are associated with garden management decisions related to sealed soil, lawns, and tree cover. Our findings show that factors such as spatial context, socio-economic status, and personal motivations are more critical in shaping garden composition and management. The results stress the complexity of garden management, where traditional practices and cultural perceptions coexist with a growing ecological awareness and highlights the intricate relationship between local contexts and the diverse personal drivers influencing individual gardeners' decisions. By recognizing this interconnectedness, we emphasize the need for gardening policies tailored to spatial and socio-economic variations and offer insights that can inform urban planners and policymakers on how to harness the untapped climate adaptation potential within these private outdoor spaces.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17933,"journal":{"name":"Land Use Policy","volume":"165 ","pages":"Article 107975"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146193204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
