Specific definitions of sustainability are difficult to agree on and therefore vary in the literature and over time. The studies ranged from micro-scale experiments to global analyses. 67 31 Moreover, this synanthropic species could meet many of the typical criteria requested for a biological indicator of human-induced landscape changes in land use policies. There is an abundance of indicators in use, but considerable variation in terms of what is being measured and how indicators are applied, making it difficult for end-users to identify suitable assessment methods.

Sustainability is a societal goal that broadly aims for humans to safely co-exist on planet Earth over a long time. Specifically, plant fast resources use strategies characterized by high SRL, RNC and low RTD occurred more frequently in nutrient-rich soils and in soils with light sandy textures. Some Ecological Indicators that weren't compiled nationally are available at state or local scales, and these can and should be added to the RPS Tool by the user as appropriate to support their screening objectives. 0000007427 00000 n We conclude that indices can be applied as solution-oriented tools, evaluating scenarios and identifying tradeoffs among services and beneficiaries, rather than only assessing and monitoring existing conditions.
