Assumptions, challenges, and future directions in cumulative impact analysis
Open accessAbstract
Efforts to understand and map cumulative impacts of human activities on ecosystems have gained new interest and relevance as management moves towards ecosystem‐based approaches that require such assessments. The last five years have seen a proliferation of efforts to characterize and map cumulative impacts, providing insight into the strengths and limitations of these efforts and where opportunities lie for progress. Here we provide a review of the key assumptions that underlie most cumulative impact mapping efforts, describing the implications and rationales for the assumptions, and highlight the many challenges cumulative impact mapping efforts face. We end with a brief summary of several future research directions that will help greatly improve application of cumulative impact mapping to resource management and conservation planning efforts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
