Excerpt

Radical disturbance from natural disasters or socio-political upheaval, defined here as trauma, can have enduring consequences on environments and societies. Little is known, however, about the long-term outcomes of trauma, including whether response efforts intended to reduce public health threats instead defer or inflate risks by influencing socioecological reassembly. Innovative theory and tools are needed to foster adaptive response strategies that account for coupled social and ecological dynamics. …
