AFRICA CHAPTER OF THE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR LANDSCAPE ECOLOGY
Africa IALE is a chapter of the International Association of Landscape Ecology (IALE) - https://www.landscape-ecology.org/home.html. Landscape ecology draws together expertise from both biophysical and socioeconomic sciences to explore basic and applied research questions concerning the ecology, conservation, management, design/planning, and sustainability of landscapes as coupled human-environment systems. The concept is increasingly being used to study complex landscape patterns and ecological functions emerging from the impacts of human activities on natural resources.
