[H-GG01] 自然資源・環境に関する地球科学と社会科学の対話
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 perspectives of earth sciences and social sciences. Contributions from a broad spectrum of research approaches are welcomed, including local-scale fieldworks in various countries under diverse socio-economic and natural conditions, theory development derived from existing knowledge, and research reviews based on progress of knowledge, methodology or research concepts. Following research themes and findings are included in the focus of the session but further 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) Impacts of human use 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 of natural resource and environment for conservation; 5) Socio-economic changes, livelihood security, political ecology as a driver or result of resource and environmental change or degradation; 6) Issues for overcoming gaps in linking between local national, regional and global studies. The session will ensure time for discussion between authors and audience and, if suitable, authors are encouraged to facilitate dialogues between earth sciences and social sciences.
