Abstract

This project aims to enhance an integrated understanding of socioeconomic as well as of natural drivers and implications of the global human use of terrestrial ecosystems. It is focused on one major integrated socio-ecological indicator, the human appropriation of net primary production (abbreviated HANPP). Other measures of human use of ecosystems will be investigated as well, including human-induced changes in nutrient flows (above all N).
