Landscape Research
ANIMALS AND THE LANDSCAPE SPECIAL ISSUE
The Editorial Team of Landscape Research is commissioning a special issue which aims to examine topics surrounding the interactions between animals and the landscape. Landscape is generally described or defined by the way humans interact with nature and although there have been papers over the years which examine aspects of the role of animals in creating and maintaining landscapes, this area of landscape studies is generally not well explored.
Research-based articles are invited from across the globe that address aspects of this theme and that will be of interest to our readers, so there must be a clear emphasis on the discussion of landscape issues. Landscape Research is an international cross-disciplinary peer-review journal. Three types of paper may be submitted: Standard Research papers, Review papers or Short Communications, which may include work in progress and 'think pieces'. Possible subjects might include research relating to historical, contemporary or future landscapes on the following broad areas:
. Animals as landscape management tools
. Animal conservation and the landscape
. Animal husbandry and landscape
. Urban landscapes and animal issues
. Biodiversity and the landscape
. Sacred animals and cultural landscapes
. Tourism and animals in the landscape
. The role of animals in landscape identity
