Ever-growing human population and nutritional demands, supply chain disruptions, and advancing climate change have led to the realization that changes in diversity and system performance are intimately linked. Moreover, diversity and system performance depend on heterogeneity. Mitigating changes in system performance and promoting sustainable living conditions requires transformative decisions. Here, we introduce the heterogeneity-diversity-system performance (HDP) nexus as the conceptual basis upon which to formulate transformative decisions. We suggest that managing the heterogeneity of systems will best allow diversity to provide multiple benefits to people. Based on ecological theory, we pose that the HDP nexus is broadly applicable across systems, disciplines, and sectors, and should thus be considered in future decision making as a way to have a more sustainable global future.
不断增长的人口数量和营养需求、供应链中断以及气候变化加剧,让人们逐渐意识到多样性变化与系统性能密切相关。此外,多样性和系统性能取决于异质性。缓解系统性能变化并促进可持续生活条件需要做出变革性决策。在此,我们引入异质性-多样性-系统性能(HDP)关系,作为制定变革性决策的概念基础。我们认为,管理系统的异质性将最有利于多样性为人们带来多重益处。基于生态理论,我们提出HDP关系广泛适用于各个系统、学科和部门,因此在未来决策中应予以考虑,作为实现更可持续全球未来的一种方式。
