Este estudio presenta una revisi\u00f3n sistem\u00e1tica de c\u00f3mo estas transiciones impactan en los medios de vida y los servicios ecosist\u00e9micos en la regi\u00f3n. M\u00e1s de 17 000 estudios publicados entre 1950 y 2015 se redujeron, en funci\u00f3n de la relevancia y la calidad, a 93 estudios para su posterior an\u00e1lisis. Nuestro an\u00e1lisis de las transiciones del uso de la tierra de los sistemas de cultivo sucios a los intensificados mostr\u00f3 varios resultados: m\u00e1s hogares hab\u00edan aumentado los ingresos generales, pero estos beneficios tuvieron un costo significativo, como la reducci\u00f3n de las pr\u00e1cticas consuetudinarias, el bienestar socioecon\u00f3mico, las opciones de medios de vida y los rendimientos de los productos b\u00e1sicos. El examen de los efectos de las transiciones en las propiedades del suelo revel\u00f3 impactos negativos en el carbono org\u00e1nico del suelo, la capacidad de intercambio cati\u00f3nico y el carbono sobre el suelo. En conjunto, los impulsores inmediatos y subyacentes de las transiciones de la EPA a los usos alternativos de la tierra, especialmente la intensificaci\u00f3n de los cultivos comerciales perennes y anuales, condujeron a disminuciones significativas en la seguridad de los medios de vida preexistentes y los servicios ecosist\u00e9micos que respaldan esta seguridad. Nuestros resultados sugieren que las pol\u00edticas que imponen transiciones en el uso de la tierra a los agricultores de las tierras altas para mejorar los medios de vida y los entornos han sido err\u00f3neas; en el contexto de los diversos usos de la tierra, la agricultura sucia puede apoyar los medios de vida y los servicios ecosist\u00e9micos que ayudar\u00e1n a amortiguar los impactos del cambio clim\u00e1tico en el sudeste asi\u00e1tico.", "keywords": ["Economics", "Cropping", "Geography", " Planning and Development", "0211 other engineering and technologies", "Optimal Operation of Water Resources Systems", "Review", "02 engineering and technology", "livelihoods", "910", "630", "Agricultural and Biological Sciences", "land-use change", "Livelihood", "Engineering", "Context (archaeology)", "Natural resource economics", "11.

Yet, there is  little understanding of soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration processes  during tropical forest succession, particularly after land abandonment  from agriculture practices. Here we used vegetation and environmental data  from two large-scale surveys covering a total landscape area of 20,000 ha  in Southeast Asia to investigate the effects of plant species diversity,  functional trait diversity, phylogenetic diversity, aboveground biomass,  and environmental factors on SOC sequestration during forest succession.  We found that functional trait diversity plays an important role in  determining SOC sequestration across successional trajectories. Increases  in SOC carbon storage were associated with indirect positive effects of  species diversity and succession age via functional trait diversity, but  phylogenetic diversity and aboveground biomass showed no significant  relationship with SOC stock. Furthermore, the effects of soil properties  and functional trait diversity on SOC carbon storage shift across  elevation. Synthesis: Our results suggest that reforestation and  restoration management practices that implement a trait-based approach by  combining long-lived and short-lived species (conservative and acquisitive  traits) to increase plant functional diversity could enhance SOC  sequestration for climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts, as  well as accelerate recovery of healthy soils.", "keywords": ["2.
