Human–Environment Interactions in GeoHealth: Addressing Terrestrial Ecosystem Health, Land Degradation, and Carbon Management

Abstract Global environmental changes have posed threats to ecosystems worldwide. Safeguarding terrestrial ecosystem health in particular is fundamental to achieving global sustainability targets, yet land degradation, carbon depletion and climate extremes continue to undermine resilience due to climate change and human activities. Therefore, Understanding human‐environment interactions is increasingly important for enhancing the resilience of terrestrial ecosystems under global change. The collection for this special issue addresses urgent challenges of land degradation, soil carbon loss, and ecosystem vulnerability by assembling eight regionally grounded studies from diverse landscapes of Asia. Collectively, these contributions reveal how land‐use transitions, restoration strategies and climate variability shape ecosystem health and carbon dynamics, while advancing methodological and governance frameworks that link science with policy. The collection offers critical insights and practical lessons for scholars and policy planners to sustainably manage land resources within the GeoHealth paradigm.
