| Scope (Session Description) |
Language of the session is English and Japanese; however, presenting authors are kindly encouraged to prepare slides (including oral presentations in Japanese) and posters in English, please. The purpose of this interdisciplinary session is to discuss how human intervention has been affecting natural resource and environment and how changes in natural resource and environment have been affecting human societies, from both perspectives of earth and social sciences. Contributions from a broad spectrum of research themes and approaches are welcomed, including new knowledge from fieldwork in changing, diverse socio-economic and natural settings and reviews to assemble existing knowledge for seeking new horizons of the research and theory development. Following themes and findings are included in the focus of the session but other topics related to use, change, management of natural resources and environment are also accepted: 1) New knowledge on human use of natural resources and environment, and locally inherited experience on the sustainable use; 2) Human impacts on change or degradation of natural resources and environment; i.e. environmental history or environmental geography; 3) Impacts of global climate change on resource and environmental change or degradation; 4) Proper management and conservation of natural resource and environment; 5) Socio-economic changes, livelihood security, political ecology as a driver of resource and environmental change or degradation; 6) How to fill spatial and temporal gaps in linking local, regional and global matters. If interested, authors are encouraged to facilitate dialogues between earth and social sciences through their presentations. The session will ensure time for discussion between authors and audience. |
