Abstract:
Most rural development projects include ecological considerations, and most conservation projects include some reference to sustainable development. However, conservation projects frequently fail because they do not incorporate local communities' perceptions and needs. Many development projects are also unsuccessful because they are not based on adequate ecological assessment. We focus here on the most important ecological issues to be addressed in order to place development projects in an ecosystem context. Such projects should incorporate updated and precise ecological concepts and methods. Some key ecological issues in development projects are the relationships between ecosystem functions, services, and sustainability, the concept of loose connectivity, the distinct and complementary concepts of ecosystem resistance and resilience, and the links between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. We claim that an ecologically sound development project maximizes the preservation and improvement of ecosystem services, especially for local communities. We pose a series of questions aimed at placing rural development projects in an ecosystem context and suggest ways of organizing this information.

Abstract:
Human societies are reliant on the functioning of the hydrologic cycle. The atmospheric branch of this cycle, often referred to as moisture recycling in the context of land-to-land exchange, refers to water evaporating, traveling through the atmosphere, and falling out as precipitation. Similar to the surface water cycle that uses the watershed as the unit of analysis, it is also possible to consider a ‘watershed of the sky’ for the atmospheric water cycle. Thus, I explore the precipitationshed - defined as the upwind surface of the Earth that provides evaporation that later falls as precipitation in a specific place. The primary contributions of this dissertation are to (a) introduce the precipitationshed concept, (b) provide a quantitative basis for the study of the precipitationshed, and (c) demonstrate its use in the fields of hydrometeorology, land-use change, social-ecological systems, ecosystem services, and environmental governance. In Paper I, the concept of the precipitationshed is introduced and explored for the first time. The quantification of precipitationshed variability is described in Paper II, and the key finding is that the precipitationsheds for multiple regions are persistent in time and space. Moisture recycling is further described as an ecosystem service in Paper III, to integrate the concept into the existing language of environmental sustainability and management. That is, I identify regions where vegetation more strongly regulates the provision of atmospheric water, as well as the regions that more strongly benefit from this regulation. In Paper IV, the precipitationshed is further explored through the lens of urban reliance on moisture recycling. Using a novel method, I quantify the vulnerability of urban areas to social-ecological changes within their precipitationsheds. In Paper V, I argue that successful moisture recycling governance will require flexible, transboundary institutions that are capable of operating within complex social-ecological systems. I conclude that, in the future, the precipitationshed can be a key tool in addressing the complexity of social-ecological systems.<br><p>At the time of the doctoral defense, the following papers were unpublished and had a status as follows: Paper 4: Manuscript.

Abstract:
The ecological design considerations are focusing on the built environment and the living process of the building. It considering the environment impact in designing building, and integrating ecological responsive design methods. While the traditional Chinese building shared the same design philosophy. Our ancestors are really concerning the connection between their living space with the broader environment, not only in the time they occupying the building, but also when they construct and demolish it. They use the word "harmony" to describe this relationship with the environment, and consider it as the high-quality pursuit of life. Wooden building has been a major building type in China for thousands of years, however, over 40 thousand traditional Chinese building has been demolished in the past 30 years, most of them are wooden buildings. Since the steel, concrete and other emerging materials has become the major materials for the modern building, wooden building seems to step down from the stage of history. Not until in recent years, wooden building come into people’s view again, it’s increasingly appeared in all over the world and take part in a major role in mordent architecture. Since the wood is a sustainable and renewable building material, and a good carbon sink, it is more environmental friendly than steel, concrete or some other building materials. The wooden building has a great potential to discover its ecological benefits and as a carrier of traditional Chinese culture. In seeking the development of wood as a building material, and the future of sustainable buildings, I integrate the theory with practice that human population is growing rapidly, the high-rise wooden building might be a best solution for this quest. I expect to explore the application of wood in high rise building’s envelope and structure, integrate the wood with other material to expand its performance, emotionally and reality connect the traditional Chinese culture and people’s memory of the land to the present day.

Abstract:
Recent technological advances facilitating the acquisition of spatial observational data and an increasing awareness of issues of spatial pattern and scale have fostered the development and use of statistical methods for multi-scale analysis. These methods can be interesting tools to improve our understanding of natural systems, but their use must be guided by a good comprehension of the statistics and their assumptions. This thesis is an effort to develop a coherent framework for multi-scale analysis and to identify theoretical, statistical and practical issues and solutions. After defining terminology and concepts, several methods are compared using a common dataset in Chapter 2. The geostatistical method of regionalized multivariate analysis is identified as possessing several advantages, but shortcomings are identified, discussed and addressed in two manuscripts. In the first one (Chapter 3), a mathematical formalism is presented to characterize the spatial uncertainty of cokriged regionalized components and an approach is proposed for the conditional Gaussian co-simulation of regionalized components. In the second manuscript (Chapter 4), the theory underlying coregionalization analysis is discussed and its robustness and limits are assessed through a theoretical and mathematical framework. The assumptions underlying the method and the high levels of uncertainty associated with its use highlight problems with the interpretation of results, and issues with the application of probabilistic models in a spatial context (Chapter 5). Coregionalization analysis with a drift (CRAD), presented in detail in two co-authored publications, is proposed as a sensible alternative<br>Des avancées technologiques récentes facilitant l'acquisition de données observationnelles spatiales, et la conscientisation grandissante des chercheurs aux problèmes d'échelles, ont favorisé le développement et l'utilisation de méthodes statistiques d'analyse multi-échelles. Ces méthodes peuvent être des outils intéressants pour améliorer notre compréhension des écosystèmes, mais leur usage nécessite une bonne connaissance des théories statistiques et des hypothèses qui leur sont sous-jacentes. Cette thèse a pour but de contribuer au développement d'un cadre conceptuel cohérent pour l'analyse multi-échelles en identifiant des problématiques et des solutions théoriques, statistiques et pratiques. La terminologie et les concepts appropriés sont d'abord définis. Ensuite, dans le chapitre 2, plusieurs méthodes sont comparées en utilisant un jeu de données commun. La méthode géostatistique d'analyse multivariable régionalisée semble offrir plusieurs avantages, mais certains problèmes sont identifiés, discutés et traités dans deux articles publiés. Le premier (chapitre 3) présente un formalisme mathématique servant à caractériser l'incertitude spatiale des composantes régionalisées cokrigées et propose une approche pour la co-simulation conditionnelle Gaussienne de composantes régionalisées. Dans le deuxième article (chapitre 4), l'analyse de corégionalisation est discutée et la robustesse ainsi que les limites de cette méthode sont évaluées selon une analyse théorique et mathématique. Les postulats de cette méthode et le haut niveau d'incertitude lié à son utilisation mettent en évidence des problèmes associés

Abstract:
As teorias sobre a formação dos conceitos em Ciência da Informação carecem de uma abordagem mais profunda sobre o principal objeto desta disciplina: a informação. Esta pesquisa realiza uma reflexão sobre essa carência tendo como estratégia considerar o problema da definição de informação e conceito como interdependentes. Essa estratégia define o problema enquanto fenômeno (como a informação interage com a formação dos conceitos?) e não a partir dos diversos exercícios de tentar definir esses conceitos. O objetivo da pesquisa é pautado, portanto, pela compreensão do fenômeno nos domínios-chave onde a informação e os conceitos se desdobram e se complementam: o cognitivo, o social e o comunicacional. Essa compreensão requer, contudo, uma abordagem diferenciada para a questão da informação, na qual esta participe do processo de organização destes domínios, abandonando assim a perspectiva tradicional da informação como ocorrências comunicativas ou efeitos dos eventos sobre a mente. A hipótese da tese era que essa perspectiva tradicional, generalista, de informação, gera uma compreensão cognitivista da formação dos conceitos, amparada em um paradigma dualista da cognição sob a dicotomia objetivo/subjetivo. O objetivo da pesquisa foi, então, contrapor outro paradigma (não dualista) de informação, através da abordagem sistêmica, embasada nos autores Humberto Maturana, Francisco Varela, e para o fenômeno da informação Niklas Luhmann. Deste último autor, retiramos a concepção central da informação como diferenças que produzem mudanças sistêmicas, organizando-se como sistemas psíquicos ou sociais. Essa noção central foi aprofundada, a partir da ideia que a informação se organiza como regimes de aceitação de diferenças em cada um desses sistemas. Para os sistemas psíquicos, baseamo-nos em Giulio Tononi, para quem o emaranhamento entre complexos de informação integrada (criando regimes expansivos) permite a emergência de conceitos. À medida que esse regime permite a emergência de sistemas de consciência que regulam o foco sobre esses conceitos, sugerimos - baseados na abordagem ecológica dos conceitos de Liane Gabora, Eleonor Rosch e Diederik Aerts - que ele, então, passa a ser complementado por outro, redutivo, que abstrai e desvincula os conceitos de seus contextos imediatos, permitindo a imaginação. Esse corpo teórico foi então confrontado com os dilemas teóricos levantados na literatura do Corpus - composto por artigos que tratassem dos processos de categorização ou aspectos cognitivos da teoria dos conceitos em Ciência da Informação. Constatamos que, em CI, a questão da formação dos conceitos confirmava a hipótese: a área de organização do conhecimento opta por uma visão cognitivista e dualista em que os conceitos se formam a partir de um núcleo de representações invariáveis (de natureza perceptiva) e os aspectos contextuais ficam restritos a operações periféricas de identificação. Concluímos que o paradigma representacionista é, em geral, dominante e que a área de organização da informação e conhecimento (e também a CI) deveria se abrir para outras abordagens, e propusemos como uma alternativa a abordagem sistêmica da informação, que apresentamos nesta pesquisa.<br>The theories about the formation of concepts in Information Science (IS) lack of a deeper approach on this discipline\'s main object: information. This research carries out a reflection on this lack adopting the strategy of considering the issues of information definition and concept as interdependent. This strategy defines this issue while phenomenon (how information interacts with the formation of concepts?), avoiding the departure from several exercises to try to define these concepts. Therefore, this research\'s objective is guided by the comprehension of that phenomenon in the key-dominions where information and concepts unfold and complete each other: the cognitive, the social and the communicational ones. However, this comprehension requires a differentiated approach for the issue of information, in which it participates of this dominions organization process, thus leaving the traditional perspective of information as communicative occurrences or event effects on mind. This thesis\' hypothesis was that this traditional and generalist perspective of information generates a cognitivist comprehension of formation of concepts, supported by a dualist paradigm of cognition under the dichotomy objective/subjective. This research\'s objective was to offer another (non-dualist) paradigm of information through the systemic approach based on the authors Humberto Maturana, Francisco Varela and, for the information phenomenon, Niklas Luhmann. From this last author, we took the core conception of information as differences that produce systemic changes, auto-organizing themselves as psychic or social systems. This core notion was deepened with the idea that information organizes itself as regimes of differences acceptation in each of these systems. For the psychic systems, we used Giulio Tononi, for whom the tangling between complexes of integrated information (creating expansive regimes) allows the emergence of concepts. As this regime allows the emergence of conscience systems that rule the focus on these concepts, we suggest - based on the ecological approach of Liane Gabora, Eleonor Rosch and Diederik Aerts - that it is, now, complemented by other, reductive, that abstracts and detaches the the concepts from its immediate concepts, acknowledging imagination. This theoretical body was, then, confronted with the theoretical dilemma in the gather of Corpus literature - composed by articles that tackled the processes of categorization or cognitive aspects of concepts theory in Information Theory. We verified that, in IS, the issue of formation of concepts confirmed the cognitivist hypothesis: the area of knowledge organization chose the cognitivist and dualist vision in which concepts are formed by a nucleus of invariable representations (of perceptive nature) and the contextual aspects are restricted to peripheral identification. We concluded that the representational paradigm is, in general, hegemonic and that the areas of information and knowledge organization (and also IS) should open to other approaches, proposing the systemic approach of information as an alternative, which is presented in this research

Abstract:
Les zones côtières à travers le monde sont soumises à de fortes pressions dues aux changements climatiques globaux, à la destruction d'habitats ou encore à la surexploitation des ressources marines. Ces différentes pressions peuvent induire des changements rapides d'état des écosystèmes caractérisés par de fortes modifications de la biodiversité, avec des écosystèmes entiers cessant de fonctionner dans leur forme courante. En conséquence, la pérennité des biens et des services écosystémiques produits par les zones côtières n'est plus assurée. Il en résulte des perturbations économiques et sociales évidentes pour les populations dont le mode de vie dépend de manière directe ou indirecte de la biodiversité côtière. Afin d'appréhender ces interactions homme-environnement, l'approche socio-écologique est de plus en plus utilisée pour illustrer le rôle de l'Homme sur la dynamique des écosystèmes marins côtiers ainsi que les bénéfices qu'il tire de ces derniers. Cette thèse a pour objectif principal d'explorer les concepts de l'approche socio-écologique appliquée à la gestion côtière. Ainsi, dans le premier chapitre de cette thèse nous résumons les spécificités, les défis et les enjeux de l'approche socio-écologique appliquée à la gestion côtière. Les chapitres 2, 3 et 4 s'intéressent à l'analyse du système socio-écologique et explorent des scénarios exploratoires d'évolution des principaux services écosystémiques du lagon de Moorea en Polynésie française. Enfin, nous discutons des avantages et des faiblesses de notre approche ainsi que des potentiels d'applicabilité en tant qu'outil de gestion des zones côtières<br>Coastal areas around the world are under intense pressures from climate change, habitat destruction, and over-exploitation of marine resources. These different pressures can induce rapid changes in the state of ecosystems characterized by strong changes in biodiversity, with whole ecosystems ceasing to function in their current form. As a result, the sustainability of goods and services produced by coastal areas is no longer assured. This results in economic and social disruptions for populations whose livelihood depends directly or indirectly on coastal biodiversity. In order to understand these linked social and environmental interactions, the socio-ecological approach is increasingly used to illustrate the role of humans in the dynamics of coastal marine ecosystems and the benefits it derives from them. However, the majority of current research remains theoretical and few case studies applied to the management of coastal areas test this concept in a transdisciplinary approach. The main objective of this thesis is to fill this gap by exploring the concepts of the socio-ecological approach applied to coastal management. Thus, in the first chapter of this thesis, we summarize the challenges insights and perspectives of the socio-ecological approach applied to coastal management. Chapters 2, 3 and 4 focus on the analysis of the coral reef resource system and explore the social-ecological trade-offs revealed by a set of multiple driver’s scenarios in order to explore the potential evolution of the main ecosystem services of Moorea island lagoon in French Polynesia

Abstract:
This report describes the design, implementation and outcomes of the initial version of the NSF-funded Journey to El Yunque curriculum, released in 2005. As formative evaluators, the role of SRI International was to document the development of the curriculum and to collect empirical evidence on the impact of the intervention on student achievement. The evaluation answers four research questions: How well does the Journey to El Yunque curriculum and accompanying assessments align with the National Science Education Standards for content and inquiry? How do teachers rate the effectiveness of the professional development workshop in teaching them to use the Journey to El Yunque curriculum and assessment materials? How do teachers implement the Journey to El Yunque curriculum? To what extent does the Journey to El Yunque curriculum increase students’ understanding ofecology and scientific inquiry abilities? The evaluators concluded that Journey to El Yunque is a well-designed curriculum and assessment replacement unit that addresses important science content and inquiry skills. The curriculum and assessments are aligned to life science content standards and key ecological concepts, and materials cover a broad range of these standards and concepts. Journey to El Yunque students scored significantly higher on the posttest than students learning ecology from traditional means with effect size 0.20.

Abstract:
Advocates have long raised concerns about the potential for partner violence after a spouse’s or partner’s return from prison, but few programs or policies exist to prevent it. In an era in which experiences of incarceration and reentry—and by extension, experiences of a partner’s or coparent’s incarceration and reentry—are commonplace in low-income urban communities, the safety of families reuniting after a prison stay merits serious attention. The current study examines qualitative data from 167 reentering men and their partners to identify contextual influences on post-prison partner violence. Insights from the data offer a valuable starting point for future research and for considering how prevention could effectively target economic, physical, social, and cognitive conditions at multiple social-ecological levels.

Abstract:
his Rapid Review is an attempt to instigate a broader discussion on child labour by considering the various dimensions and angles associated with the phenomenon beyond the straitjacket definitions provided in most reports. Its objectives are threefold. First, it aims to determine whether re-analysis of existing data sets is likely to yield new insights into the forms, prevalence and drivers of children’s work in agriculture in Ghana. Second, it aims to provide specific guidance on how these re-analyses might be undertaken and framed. And third, it aims to determine whether any of the available data sets might be used to map the number or density of children to the main agro-ecological zones or agricultural systems. In doing this, the review describes the nature of child work in the agricultural sector, highlighting areas that have often been ignored in the literature. The conclusion offers suggestions for future research on child labour based on our renewed understanding of the broad concept of child work.

Bowles, David, Michael Williams, Hope Dodd, et al. Protocol for monitoring aquatic invertebrates of small streams in the Heartland Inventory & Monitoring Network: Version 2.1. National Park Service, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.36967/nrr-2284622.

Abstract:
The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network (HTLN) is a component of the National Park Service’s (NPS) strategy to improve park management through greater reliance on scientific information. The purposes of this program are to design and implement long-term ecological monitoring and provide information for park managers to evaluate the integrity of park ecosystems and better understand ecosystem processes. Concerns over declining surface water quality have led to the development of various monitoring approaches to assess stream water quality. Freshwater streams in network parks are threatened by numerous stressors, most of which originate outside park boundaries. Stream condition and ecosystem health are dependent on processes occurring in the entire watershed as well as riparian and floodplain areas; therefore, they cannot be manipulated independently of this interrelationship. Land use activities—such as timber management, landfills, grazing, confined animal feeding operations, urbanization, stream channelization, removal of riparian vegetation and gravel, and mineral and metals mining—threaten stream quality. Accordingly, the framework for this aquatic monitoring is directed towards maintaining the ecological integrity of the streams in those parks. Invertebrates are an important tool for understanding and detecting changes in ecosystem integrity, and they can be used to reflect cumulative impacts that cannot otherwise be detected through traditional water quality monitoring. The broad diversity of invertebrate species occurring in aquatic systems similarly demonstrates a broad range of responses to different environmental stressors. Benthic invertebrates are sensitive to the wide variety of impacts that influence Ozark streams. Benthic invertebrate community structure can be quantified to reflect stream integrity in several ways, including the absence of pollution sensitive taxa, dominance by a particular taxon combined with low overall taxa richness, or appreciable shifts in community composition relative to reference condition. Furthermore, changes in the diversity and community structure of benthic invertebrates are relatively simple to communicate to resource managers and the public. To assess the natural and anthropo-genic processes influencing invertebrate communities, this protocol has been designed to incorporate the spatial relationship of benthic invertebrates with their local habitat including substrate size and embeddedness, and water quality parameters (temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance, and turbidity). Rigid quality control and quality assurance are used to ensure maximum data integrity. Detailed standard operating procedures (SOPs) and supporting information are associated with this protocol.
