摘要: A recently launched international initiative on “Hydrology for the Environment, Life and Policy” (HELP) aims at a science‐based approach to integrated catchment management, in particular facilitating dialogue needed between scientists, stakeholders policy makers. The ultimate challenge of sustainability‐oriented environmental management is find proper balance humans impacts that their activities cause ecosystems. This makes useful landscape unit an where balancing nature can be carried out. seen as containing two mosaics, one human water‐related other water‐dependent ecosystems, terrestrial well aquatic. These mosaics are internally linked by water flows but partly incompatible. Therefore, task orchestrate compatibility, which will demand intentional trade‐offs. Past has often been based ...
