Tree cover transitions and food security in Southeast Asia

摘要: Abstract Trees are sources of food, especially fruits, critical for healthy diets. also modify microclimate, water and nutrient flows crops livestock, a source income, allowing forest-edge communities to be food-sufficient through trade without cutting down forests. Opportunities ecological intensification, utilizing trees in agricultural landscapes, vary along stages tree cover transition forest alteration deforestation followed by agroforestation. The nonlinear curve can provide both theory change (similarity processes) place (configuration state variables). We reviewed local perspectives on food security four configurations the landscape Southeast Asia, with human population densities ranging from less than 10 900 km−2 explore how current generic ‘theories change’ achieve global need more explicit place’ that take such differences into account.
