Urbanization brings benefits and burdens to both humans and nature. Cities are key systems for integrated social-ecological research and the interdisciplinary journal of Ambio has published ground-breaking contributions in this field. This reflection piece identifies and discusses integration of the human and natural spheres in urban social-ecological research using the following foundational papers as important milestones: Folke et al. (1997), Ernstson et al. (2010) and Andersson et al. (2014). These papers each take unique approaches that aim to uncover core properties-processes, structures, and actors-of urban systems and set them into mutual relationship. This piece will end with a forward-looking vision for the coming 50 years of urban sustainability and resilience study in Ambio.
城市化给人类和自然带来了好处和负担。城市是综合社会-生态研究的关键系统，而《AMBIO》这一跨学科期刊在该领域发表了开创性的贡献。这篇反思性文章使用以下重要里程碑式的基础论文，确定并讨论了城市社会-生态研究中人类和自然领域的综合：Folke 等人（1997 年）、Ernstson 等人（2010 年）和 Andersson 等人（2014 年）。这些论文都采用了独特的方法，旨在揭示城市系统的核心属性——过程、结构和参与者，并将它们置于相互关系中。本文将以对未来 50 年《AMBIO》城市可持续性和弹性研究的前瞻性展望结束。
