Abstract

Landscape sustainability is a new area of transdisciplinary research and application that integrates ideas from fields such as sustainable development, landscape ecology, landscape architecture, geography, and sustainability science. It emerged from research and application about how changing landscapes are influenced by human–environment relationships and how sustainable landscapes can be designed, planned, and managed. The coproduction of transdisciplinary knowledge that integrates research and application is a distinctive characteristic of the literature about landscape sustainability. Important paradigms about landscape sustainability include landscape sustainability science and design‐in‐science. Important areas of research and application include social–ecological systems and sustainable landscapes. Future challenges and opportunities in research and application emphasize the maturation of the transdisciplinary perspective of landscape sustainability, so that there is deeper integration between the paradigms of landscape sustainability science and design‐in‐science.
