Environmental change and variability are increasingly recognized as key drivers of threats to human security at local, national, regional, and global scales. Interdisciplinary data and analytic tools and methods are critical for strengthening the ability of society to improve understanding of past trends and interactions, monitor current conditions and key drivers, anticipate or predict future conditions or extremes, and assess policy options. Widespread access to these data and tools through open source approaches helps to accelerate innovation, increase the reproducibility of and trust in outputs, and facilitate engagement by all stakeholders. We welcome papers on approaches to improving the interoperability of existing tools and data to better support eco-security studies, case studies of the application of data and tools to specific eco-security problems, analyses of stakeholder needs for improved data and tools, and examples of academic, government, private sector, and civil society collaboration on eco-security analysis and decision making.
