This comprehensive book empowers readers to acquire a holistic understanding of natural, human-made, and coupled human-natural systems. The authors delve into the structure, function, and dynamic mechanisms of diverse systems, encompassing both natural and human-made elements, while also examining their reciprocal interactions within the framework of "coupled human-natural systems." The chapters challenge traditional planning and management assumptions and strategies related to natural resources, human-altered systems, and the environment.

Recognizing the vital importance of effective regulations, policies, and governance structures, the authors analyze advanced research and practices on policy design for managing natural, human-made, and coupled human-natural systems. They conduct impact evaluation and integrative ecosystems assessment, discussing policy interventions and decision-making strategies. They acknowledge the localization of policy design, considering regional and global dynamics that shape responses of local human-made and coupled human-natural systems.

A dedicated section of chapters explores legal foundations for sustainable development and strong institutions. The authors employ models from both natural and social sciences to obtain and present significant research results.

This book serves as an indispensable resource for sustainability research and practice in human-made, natural, and coupled human-natural systems. It appeals to scholars, practitioners, and advanced graduate students with an interest in systems theories, methodologies, and applications.
