Abstract

The Belgian loess belt and its watersheds are particularly affected by runoff and erosion
[Bielders et al., 2003], causing significant damages [Dogot et al., 2019]. Specialists are reflecting on watershed management which, in addition to combating these disturbing phenomena,
promotes a wealth of ecosystem services (ES). The objective of this work is to evaluate the
ecosystem services of different existing developments in the fight against runoff and soil erosion
in an agricultural catchment in the Belgian Loessic belt. Based on the work of [Cantreul, 2020],
nine management scenarios of the experimental watershed of Chastre, in addition to the initial
scenario, are used to evaluate the services of pollination, carbon storage, agricultural production,
landscape attractiveness and erosion prevention. These scenarios are established by specialists
on the basis of grassed strips and channels, wooded strips, hedges, fascines and changes in the
direction and intensity of tillage. The ES of pollination, carbon storage and erosion prevention
are assessed using InVEST models. A methodology based on the loss of utilised agricultural area
(SAU) is developed for the agricultural production service and a survey-based methodology is
used for landscape attractiveness. The results obtained are rich and varied. The scenarios with
the best results for pollination, carbon storage, landscape attractiveness and erosion prevention
are also the most expensive to implement and they have the greatest impacts on SAU. The
choice of an ideal management scenario must take into account the trade-offs between ES and
the synergies between them.

Abstract

At the heart of human intelligence rests a fundamental puzzle: How are we incredibly smart and stupid at the same time? No existing machine can match the power and flexibility of human perception, language, and reasoning. Yet, we routinely commit errors that reveal the failures of our thought processes. 'What Makes Us Smart' makes sense of this paradox by arguing that our cognitive errors are not haphazard. Rather, they are the inevitable consequences of a brain optimized for efficient inference and decision making within the constraints of time, energy, and memory - in other words, data and resource limitations. Framing human intelligence in terms of these constraints, Samuel Gershman shows how a deeper computational logic underpins the 'stupid' errors of human cognition.

Abstract

Landscape is central to tourism. It is key to the development, marketing/promotion, and consumption of tourism destinations, to triggering and sustaining tourism markets, and to enticing tourist dreams, fantasies, and behaviors. From ‘sight-seeing’ practices—at the basis of all tourism activities—landscape figures prominently all the way to the overall spatial planning and management of a destination for tourism development. The intertwined relationship between tourism and landscape comes with a series of costs and benefits, in the context of tourism landscapes. Landscapes of tourism reflect and stage recreational trends, multifunctional livelihood systems, conflicts and opportunities for employment and income generation, as well as human, cultural, and natural resource management and use. This Special Issue aims to enhance the interdisciplinary scientific dialogue on these issues and challenges, while highlighting their range and significance for tourism and the landscape, in terms of theory, empirical practice, approach, policy, ethics, and future prospects. Some of the questions posed for consideration here are: What are landscapes of tourism, for whom and how/why? What is the role of the landscape in tourism promotion, attraction, and experience? How does tourism affect the landscape? What lessons do the history and geography of tourism have to offer to tourism landscape stewardship? How may we best plan for and manage the landscape in the context of various forms of tourism growth and spread, at various scales? Scholarly advances in the past few decades have steadily built on a diverse—but spread-out and not adequately connected—bibliographical basis for future research. Much remains to be understood and exchanged as landscape and tourism—two highly complex and multifaceted scientific areas—come together in the scope of this Special Issue in a variety of ways across time, space, and culture.
