Drivers of Environmental Change


in Uplands

The uplands are a crucial source of ecosystem services, such as water pro-
vision, carbon retention, maintenance of biodiversity, provision of recreation
value and cultural heritage. This makes them the focus of environmental and
social scientists as well as of practitioners and land managers. This volume
brings together a wealth of knowledge of the British uplands from diverse
but inter-related fields of study, clearly demonstrating their importance in
twenty-first-century Britain, and indicating how we may through interdiscip-
linary approaches meet the challenges provided by past and future drivers
of environmental change.
The upland environments are subject to change. They face imminent threats
as well as opportunities from pressures such as climate change, changes in land
management and related changes in fire risk, increases in erosion and water
colour, degradation of habitats, altered wildlife and recreational value, as
well as significant changes in the economy of these marginal areas. This book
presents up-to-date scientific background information, addresses policy-
related issues and lays out pressing land management questions. A number
of world-class experts provide a review of cutting-edge natural and social
science and an assessment of past, current and potential future management
strategies, policies and other drivers of change. After appraisal of key con-
cepts and principles, chapters provide specific examples and applications by
focusing on UK upland areas and specifically on the Peak District National
Park as a key example for other highly valuable upland regions.
With its strong interdisciplinary approach, this book will be of interest to
a wide range of students, researchers and practitioners in the field, includ-
ing those engaged with Environmental Economics, Conservation and Land
Management, Rural Development, Environmental Management and Phys-
ical Geography.

Aletta Bonn is Research Manager for the Moors for the Future Partnership
in the Peak District National Park. Tim Allott is Reader in Physical Geo-
graphy at the University of Manchester and co-leader of the Upland Environ-
ments Research Unit. Klaus Hubacek is Reader in Ecological Economics at
the School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds. Jon Stewart is
a Team Leader with Natural England working in the Peak District.

Foreword
John Lee

It is nearly sixty years since W. H. Pearsall’s classic text Mountains and


Moorlands appeared. At the time, and for at least two decades afterwards,
it was arguably the best English ecological text, providing an unrivalled descrip-
tion of the ecology of the British uplands. Pearsall had known the uplands
intimately since he was a boy in the last years of the nineteenth century, and
had pursued distinguished ecological research there during an academic
career begun at the Victoria University of Manchester and continued at the
Universities of Leeds and Sheffield and at the University College London.
Among the many important observations in the book, Pearsall emphasised
that the British uplands had been subjected to continuous change since the
last glaciation, although the cause and nature of this change had altered over
time. In the intervening years since Mountains and Moorlands appeared there
has been a number of books devoted to upland ecology and at least one devoted
to ecological change, but the present volume is perhaps the first to adopt a
wide-ranging interdisciplinary approach incorporating science, policy and man-
agement considerations.
The fact that change in the uplands has been continuous but that the drivers
have changed over time makes predictions about the future problematic. One
can immediately see this by reading the last chapter of Mountains and
Moorlands, which is devoted to the future as Pearsall saw it in 1950. To take
but one example, Pearsall could not have foreseen the massive overgrazing
problems of the last few decades of the twentieth century conditioned by the
European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy, one of the largest drivers
of change in the uplands. Few can doubt today the importance of the link
between science, policy and management when considering the viability of
upland farming, very much a major current concern. The interdisciplinary
approach as exemplified in many of the chapters in this book is very much
to be applauded.
A major preoccupation of environmental scientists, managers, policy-
makers and indeed the general public today is that of human-made global
climate change, and many of the authors in this volume refer to it as a major
driver of change. They are of course right to do so, given the over-riding
importance of climate in determining ecological processes. In helping us to
9780415447799_1_pre.qxd 02/12/2008 11:25 AM Page ix

Foreword ix
predict the effects of climate change scenarios on the uplands we are in a
much stronger position now than in Pearsall’s day. The last fifty years have
seen a great increase in environmental research in the British uplands, much
of which is documented in the chapters of this book. We have now know-
ledge based on considerable careful experimentation as well as on observa-
tion to guide managers and policy-makers into the future. However, we still
have an imperfect understanding of how upland ecosystems respond in the
longer term to environmental perturbations and restoration practices, and
this is likely to be the focus of much further research to help us anticipate
future challenges.
The huge economic and social value of ecosystems as a source of goods
and services for people has become much more widely recognised in recent
years, notably through the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment launched in
2001. For many years the uplands have been used as a source of water for
lowland cities and towns as well as a place of recreation for their inhabi-
tants. However, until recently, very little emphasis has been placed on the
connections between upland and lowland Britain. One topical example of
these connections is to what extent the management of upland catchments
for agriculture or game birds may influence lowland flooding and water qual-
ity. Similarly, it is only recently that peatlands have been valued for their
potential long-term carbon storage as atmospheric concentrations of carbon
dioxide continue to rise. Peatlands play an important role in both the water
and carbon economies of upland Britain and of some other parts of the world,
but have been badly neglected in the past. The neglect and the environmental
problems this has caused are well documented in this volume, as are attempts
to rectify the situation through reclamation practices.
The uplands have provided, and continue to provide, many benefits to soci-
ety. Perhaps these benefits have not been as widely appreciated by policy-
makers and the population at large as they should have been. This volume
brings together a wealth of knowledge of the British uplands from diverse
but inter-related fields of study. It clearly demonstrates their importance in
twenty-first century Britain, and indicates how we may through interdiscip-
linary approaches meet the challenges provided by past and future drivers
of environmental change.

This book has been a great collaborative project by all authors involved. The
inter-disciplinary nature of this project brought together social and natural
scientists as well as key experts and representatives from upland policy and
management. The collation has been a stimulating and productive process,
and we are grateful to all contributors. Similarly, we are indebted to all review-
ers, both scientists and practitioners, who examined the contents with a crit-
ical eye and provided many constructive comments that enhanced the book.
Special thanks to Joanna Collins, Dabo Guan and Yuan Guan for editorial
assistance. We are also grateful to the Routledge publishing team for their
advice and guidance.
The project developed out of a productive upland research forum in the
Peak District National Park, UK, a platform for cross-disciplinary upland
research. The forum is fostered by the Moors for the Future Partnership,
a public–private partnership dedicated to restoration, awareness-raising
and research. The partnership aims to develop and share expertise of
how to protect upland environments and adapt to change in the future
(www.moorsforthefuture.org.uk). The first phase of the programme was
supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund, and past and current partners include:
Peak District National Park Authority, Natural England, National Trust,
Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), Environment
Agency, United Utilities, Severn Trent Water, Yorkshire Water, Sheffield City
Council, Derbyshire County Council, Moorland Association, Country
Land and Business Association, National Farmers Union as well as private
moorland owners. We would very much like to thank staff and members of
these organisations and individuals, whose vital support facilitated many
of the case studies reported in this book.
Two of the editors and several authors (Hubacek, Bonn, Boys, Fraser,
Holden, Quinn, Reed, Termansen and Worrall) are involved in the re-
search consortium project ‘Sustainable uplands: learning to manage future
change’ RES-224-25-0088, funded through the Rural Economy and Land
Use (RELU) Programme, co-sponsored by UK research councils ESRC,
NERC and BB SRC and UK agencies Defra and SEERAD.
