The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities awarded a $1,599,400 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Michigan State University to study the transformation of integrated human and natural systems following the collapse of a socio-environmental system. The 5-year project will track changes in small-scale fishing communities and adjacent marine environments in Yucatan, Mexico after the recent collapse of the sea cucumber fishery. The research aims to understand how socio-environmental systems behave and transform following a collapse event, with the goal of providing insights to help society reorganize and create more sustainable and equitable outcomes. The project will leverage social surveys, environmental monitoring, and advanced analytical methods such as social-ecological network analysis and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. A sub-award was made to the University of Maryland, College Park, where a co-investigator will contribute subject matter expertise on conservation criminology, participatory risk mapping, and human dimensions of global environmental change.
