摘要: Southern Africa is particularly sensitive to climate change, due both ecological and socio-economic factors, with rural land users among the most vulnerable groups. The provision of information support climate-relevant decision-making requires an understanding projected impacts change complex feedbacks within local ecosystems, as well demands on ecosystem services. In this paper, we address limitation current approaches for developing management relevant socio-ecological human activities. We emphasise need linking disciplines by expounding methodology followed in our two consecutive projects. These projects combine levels measurements from leaf level (ecophysiology) landscape (flux measurements) household (socio-economic surveys) regional (remote sensing), feeding into a variety models at multiple scales. Interdisciplinary, multi-scaled, integrated approaches, proposed here, are needed compliment reductionist linear, scale-specific approaches. Decision systems used integrate communicate data decision-makers.
