Data from: Making Brexit work for the environment and livelihoods: delivering a stakeholder informed vision for agriculture and fisheries
1. The UK's decision to leave the EU has far-reaching implications for agriculture and fisheries. To ensure the future sustainability of UK agricultural and fisheries systems, we argue that it is essential to grasp the opportunity that Brexit is providing to develop integrated policies that improve the management and protection of the natural environments, upon which these industries rely. 2. This article advances a stakeholder informed vision of the future design of UK agriculture and fisheries policies. We assess how currently emerging UK policy will need to be adapted in order to implement this vision. Our starting point is that Brexit provides the opportunity to redesign current unsustainable practices and can in principle deliver a sustainable future for agriculture and fisheries. 3. Underpinning policies with an ecosystem approach, with explicit inclusion of public goods provision, and social welfare equity were found to be central to the success of this endeavour. Recognition of the needs of, and innovative practices in, the devolved UK nations is also required as the new policy and regulatory landscape is established. 4. Achieving our proposed vision will necessitate drawing on best practice and creating more coherent and integrated food, environment and rural and coastal economy policies. Sustainable prosperity should and can form the core of future post-Brexit environmental policy thinking and our findings demonstrate the "bottom-up" and co-production approaches that will be key to the development of more environmentally sustainable agricultural and fisheries policies.
Data from: Advancing transdisciplinary research on grassy biomes to support resilience in tropical ecosystems and livelihoods
<p>Madagascar-wide metadata relating to Malagasy Grassy Biomes. The understanding of vegetation dynamics in tropical grassy biomes is severely limited across spatio-temporal scales, limiting effective management and support for livelihoods and biodiversity. Despite their extent, utility, and central importance to people and ecosystem function, grassy biomes are often uncritically regarded as degraded, valueless landscapes that result primarily from destructive anthropogenic forces. Moreover, this characterization is often presented without investigation of their history, biodiversity, or ecological complexity. Iconically, Madagascar's grassy biomes cover approximately 80% of the island's land surface today and exemplify core challenges to understanding tropical grassy ecosystems and their interactions with anthropogenic activities across spatio-temporal scales. Intersections between human history and environmental change have sparked debates about the role of land use in shaping grassy biomes (e.g., pastoralism, cultivation, fire use), echoing land use debates globally, and highlighting obstacles to ecosystem and livelihood resilience. Like many tropical biodiversity hotspots, Madagascar faces converging challenges that can be aided by an improved understanding of grassy ecosystems and the livelihoods they support, including food and health insecurity, economic inequities, biodiversity loss, climate change, land conversion, and limited resource access. Centered on improved understanding and management of grassy biomes, we present a framework to guide transdisciplinary research across the tropics by: (1) establishing a common terminology; (2) summarising data contributions and knowledge gaps that reflect those in other tropical regions; (3) identifying priority research questions; and (4) highlighting transdisciplinary and inclusive approaches to resolve knowledge gaps and co-benefit ecosystems and livelihoods. </p>

<ol> <li> <span>Calling on the concept of environmental justice in its </span><span>distributive, procedural, and recognition</span><span> dimensions, </span><span>w</span><span>e implemented a collaborative scenario-building approach to explore sustainable livelihood pathways in four sites belonging to two Transfrontier Conservation Areas (TFCAs) in southern Africa. </span> </li> <li><span>Grounded on participation and transdisciplinarity, as a foundation for decolonised anticipatory action research, we aimed at stimulating knowledge exchange and providing insights on the future of local livelihoods by engaging experts living within these TFCAs. </span></li> <li><span>Our results show that wildlife and wildlife-related activities are not seen as the primary drivers of local livelihoods, despite the focus and investments of dominant stakeholders in these sectors. Instead, local governance and land use regulations emerged as key drivers in the four study sites. The state of natural resources, including water, and appropriate farming systems also appeared critical to sustain future livelihoods in TFCAs, together with the recognition of indigenous culture, knowledge, and value systems.</span></li> <li><span>Nature conservation, especially in Africa, is rooted in its colonial past and struggles to free or decolonise itself from the habits of this past despite decades of reconsideration. To date, the enduring coloniality of conservation prevents local citizens from truly participating in the planning and designing of the TFCAs they live in, leaving room for limited benefits to local citizens and often limiting indigenous people's capacity to conserve. </span></li> <li> <span>A practical way forward is to consider environmental justice as a cement between the two pillars of the TFCA concept, i.e.</span><span>nature conservation and socioeconomic development of local or neighbouring communities,</span><span> as part of a more broad and urgent need to rethink the relationships between people in, and with, the rest of nature.</span> </li> </ol>

Data from: Conservation versus livelihoods: spatial management of non-timber forest product harvests in a two-dimensional model
Areas of high biodiversity often coincide with communities living in extreme poverty. As a livelihood support, these communities often harvest wild products from the environment. But harvest activities can have negative impacts on fragile and globally important ecosystems. This paper examines trade-offs in ecological protection and community welfare from the harvest of wild products. With a novel model and empirical evidence, I show that management of harvest activity does not always resolve these trade-offs. In a model of continuous harvests in a two-dimensional landscape, managed harvest activity improves welfare, but is uniformly bad for other ecosystem services that are sensitive to the presence (as opposed to the intensity) of human activity. Empirical results from a unique dataset of mushroom harvesters in Yunnan, China suggest more experienced, poorer, and more vulnerable individuals tend to rely on more distant harvests. Thus, policies that limit the extent of forest travel, such as protected areas, may protect fragile ecosystems but can have a disproportionately negative effect on those most vulnerable.
Data of subjective poverty, public services supply, and livelihood capital
<p><span>Poverty is not only an economic problem but also a social problem, and there are certain limitations of objective poverty based on the population's income. It does not reflect the residents' true feelings regarding education opportunities, pension and medical security, and participation in decision-making. Researchers have studied it intensively in different objective dimensions of Chinese poverty, and little attention has been paid to subjective poverty. This study analyzes how public services supply, livelihood capital, and livelihood strategies affect subjective perceptions of poverty.</span></p>
