“…A reason for the limited instrumental use of specific ecosystem services in coastal and marine decision making could be the potential conflict with existing better known terms, which are often related to existing sectors (Bouwma et al, 2018). This begs the question whether the current ecosystem services categories are suitable to directly inform decision making, or if a 'translation step' between ecosystem service research and decision making is required, for instance through bundles of indicators (Martín-López et al, 2012) or narratives combining multiple topics, not limited to ecosystem services (Bontje and Slinger, 2017;Delmotte et al, 2017). The interplay between scientific classifications and policy-relevant issues is likely to remain dynamic, and will depend on the socio-environmental and decision-making context (Díaz et al, 2018).…”

“…Drought and its associated degradation are the causes of most problems in Mediterranean areas, so all future plans of land use should take into account droughts' impacts on the water cycle while considering future scenarios of more droughts and fewer water resources [247]. Appropriate revegetation is the main way to stop desertification where it has already occurred.…”

The increase in aridity, mainly by decreases in precipitation but also by higher temperatures, is likely the main threat to the diversity and survival of Mediterranean forests. Changes in land use, including the abandonment of extensive crop activities, mainly in mountains and remote areas, and the increases in human settlements and demand for more resources with the resulting fragmentation of the landscape, hinder the establishment of appropriate management tools to protect Mediterranean forests and their provision of services and biodiversity. Experiments and observations indicate that if changes in climate, land use and other components of global change, such as pollution and overexploitation of resources, continue, the resilience of many forests will likely be exceeded, altering their structure and function and changing, mostly decreasing, their capacity to continue to provide their current services. A consistent assessment of the impacts of the changes, however, remains elusive due to the difficulty of obtaining simultaneous and complete data for all scales of the impacts in the same forests, areas and regions. We review the impacts of climate change and other components of global change and their interactions on the terrestrial forests of Mediterranean regions, with special attention to their impacts on ecosystem services. Management tools for counteracting the negative effects of global change on Mediterranean ecosystem- services are finally discussed.

“…This methodological choice is shared with many participatory research projects and facilitates reflections on "the" transition. But we can also follow a prospective approach that holds several scenarios and several possible paths (Delmotte et al 2017). It can maintain comparability of different options, not necessarily dominated by strong agroecology.…”

Agroecological Transitions: From Theory to Practice in Local Participatory Design

This chapter is written by researchers at UMR Innovation (Montpellier) who propose an external critical analysis of the TATA-BOX project. Firstly, we highlight the main contributions of both the project and the book, which cover different stages of a participatory research project, by crossing several disciplinary viewpoints. We note multiple outputs that can strengthen the capacities of farmers and researchers. We then develop three questions that echo our own works on innovations and agroecological transition: (i) How to associate agroecological issues with the diversity of practices and projects in a given area which is not necessary in a transition towards "strong ecological modernization"?; (ii) What are the conditions for disseminating/outscaling the TATA-BOX approach? In particular, can the project be replicated without the support of researchers? (iii) How to best integrate the political dimensions of ecological transition at different scales? We conclude that TATA-BOX could become a "political object" that promotes agroecological transition to local authorities, national policy makers and media, and international networks.
