A quantitative model, based on canonical correlation analysis applied in Fuerteventura Island (Canary Archipelago), detected indicators of human– landscape relationships and predicted potential shifts based on simulated environmental changes. In the last few decades, the landscape of Fuerteventura Island has changed: natural components and cultural agrarian uses have decreased, while the population has increased due to immigration, mainly from mainland Spain and other European countries. The island shows a transition from a coupled local socio-ecosystem to one based on the interaction between environment and coastal tourism that decouples native inhabitants from the landscape and traditional land-use practices. As vulnerability and adaptation to climate change represent critical sets of potential interactions in Canary Islands, a model and a map of the socioecological system under four Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change scenarios show rural decoupling through ‘deagrarianization’ and ‘deruralization’, as well as stronger links to the tourism system. eng People and nature in the Fuerteventura Biosphere Reserve (Canary Islands): socio-ecological relationships under climate change journal article URL https://docta.ucm.es/bitstreams/e234e7cb-ce58-4edc-ac62-c912f6221644/download File MD5 c0ad4656d1cc66cca29aa74a4faf0e0c 553342 application/pdf Schmitz, M.
