Abstract

The legacy of historic anthropogenic disturbance can significantly affect the structure and function of contemporary freshwater ecosystems. Environmental research and management that neglect anthropogenic legacy are likely to lead to a biased interpretation of present and future ecosystem dynamics. Yet, anthropogenic legacy remains poorly considered, mainly because of the challenges associated with its identification. Synthesizing past progress in legacy research, we present a conceptual framework for the systematic identification of anthropogenic legacy. We focus on the dynamic processes occurring during legacy formation (e.g., disturbance regime, ecosystem trajectories). Based on the review of relevant case studies, we discuss the historical and contemporary sources of information (e.g., communication, cartographic, paleoenvironmental sources) that can be employed for legacy identification. Finally, we provide practical examples of anthropogenic legacy identification in real‐world freshwater ecosystems. Produced in multidisciplinary collaboration, this review presents a comprehensive approach to anthropogenic legacy to foster its informed and systematic consideration in freshwater research and management.This article is categorized under: Science of Water > Water and Environmental Change Water and Life > Stresses and Pressures on Ecosystems

确定淡水生态系统中的人为遗产
历史遗留的人为干扰会对当代淡水生态系统的结构和功能产生重大影响。忽视人为遗留问题的环境研究和管理很可能导致对现在和未来生态系统动态的解释出现偏差。然而,对人为遗产的考虑仍然很少,这主要是因为对其进行识别所面临的挑战。综合过去遗产研究的进展,我们提出了一个系统识别人为遗产的概念框架。我们重点关注遗产形成过程中的动态过程(如干扰机制、生态系统轨迹)。在回顾相关案例研究的基础上,我们讨论了可用于遗产识别的历史和当代信息来源(如通信、制图、古环境来源)。最后,我们提供了在现实世界淡水生态系统中进行人为遗产识别的实际案例。通过多学科合作,本综述提出了一种全面的人为遗产方法,以促进在淡水研究和管理中对其进行知情和系统的考虑:水科学> 水与环境变化 水与生命> 生态系统的压力与应力
