“…Yet, our results showed that only 5% of studies combine several spatial levels, while no studies from our sub-corpus addressed multiple temporal scales. This result echoes with other recent literature reviews that pointed to the lack of multi-level and spatiotemporal approaches in ecological research on human-dominated landscapes(Blanco et al 2022).Filling this gap in fostering multi-scalar PLSA would appear a key priority for future research given the valuable insights provided by the minority of studies that implemented this approach. For example, Karner et al (2019) conducted a multi-scalar participatory process to compare land sharing and land sparing approaches in Europe.…”

In line with interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary principles of Sustainability Science, Participatory Landscape Sustainability Assessment (PLSA) studies are developing. These studies make the paradoxical promises to standardize observations to obtain robust and comparable data, while including a diversity of case studies, stakeholders and viewpoints. ObjectiveThe purpose of this paper is to highlight the diversity of perspectives on PLSA, arguing that the lack of coherent framing and a poor substantive theorization can limit the development of PLSA studies. MethodsWe conducted a systematic literature review on a corpus of 425 publications by combining bibliographic mapping on the full corpus and a content analysis on a sub-corpus of 138 full-texts. ResultsOur results showed that (i) this eld is at the crossroads between ecology, landscape planning and sociocultural approaches, (ii) indicators combine on average 4.7 categories of sustainability, but are most applied at a local level and in a snapshot perspective, (iii) stakeholders are rarely involved in the choice of indicators (28.9% of studies) or in the assessment design (7.2%), and are mostly only asked to populate pre-identi ed indicators (63.9%), and (iv) viewpoint diversity is taken into consideration mainly by using indicators (67.3%) rather than by promoting deliberation (39.8%). In sum, we distinguish the participationoriented approach, the contributive approach (anchored in positivism) and the collaborative approach (anchored in constructivism). ConclusionWe advocate that future studies should be more explicit on the perspective they adopt in order to improve consistence between PLSA objectives, methods, and theoretical anchorages. This clari cation might ultimately avoid confusion about the different regimes of participation and their respective contributions to Landscape Sustainability Science.

“…Therefore, it is possible to effectively promote the development of the forestry industry by studying and implementing management policies based on ecological intensification (Montesinos, 2019). At the same time, strengthening and deepening research on the ecological environment can also better guide forestry production practices (Blanco et al, 2022).…”

China’s economy has entered a new period of transformation, and the development of various industries will become the backbone of promoting economic sectors. At the same time, it will also become a booster for promoting the transformation and development of various industries. As an essential component of China’s economic construction, forestry will also enter a critical period of transformation. However, because the forestry industry mainly relies on forest resources as production factors, there is a certain contradiction between the forestry industry development and the ecological environment. Therefore, taking Heilongjiang Province as an example, this paper applies the PSR model to explain the mechanism of the relationship between forestry industry development and the ecological environment. The PSR model mainly consists of three indicators: Pressure, State, and Response, which analyze the interrelationships between elements within the system. On the other hand, the coupling coordination model is applied to analyze the coupling coordination relationship between the forestry industry development and the ecological environment in Heilongjiang Province from 2011 to 2018. The results show that the development of the forestry industry puts pressure on the ecological environment. At the same time, the environmental climate also imposes restrictions and constraints on the development of the forestry industry. The two promote, influence, and constrain each other. The development of the forestry industry was antagonistic, running in, coupled, and coordinated with the ecological environment in Heilongjiang Province from 2011 to 2018. However, there is still a particular gap in the level of coupling and coordination between the two, and they have yet to reach a state of good coordinated development. Therefore, Heilongjiang Province can promote the coordinated development of its forestry industry and the ecological environment through innovative forestry industry transformation models, policy-oriented rational development and utilization of forest resources, environmentally constrained clean production of the forestry industry, and complementary and shared development of the forestry industry and ecological environment.
