Spatial ecology and the spatial sciences in general are increasingly applied to support
evidence-based policy and environmental management decisions in an era of global
change. The effects of global change agents – climate change, land-use change, novel
species, and altered biogeochemical cycles and disturbance regimes – play out over
multiple spatial and temporal scales. International and multilateral agencies are calling
for spatially explicit information in support of policy and management supporting biodiversity,
ecosystem services and sustainable environmental management. Conservation and
environmental planning can no longer be restricted to a static landscape but must
explicitly account for temporal dynamics.
