Forests across the world stand at a crossroads where climate and land-use changes are shaping their future. Despite demonstrations of political will and global efforts, forest loss, fragmentation, and degradation continue unabated. No clear evidence exists to suggest that these initiatives are working. A key reason for this apparent ineffectiveness could lie in the failure to recognize the agency of all stakeholders involved. Landscapes do not happen. We shape them. Forest transitions are social and behavioral before they are ecological. Decision makers need to integrate better representations of people?s agency in their mental models. A possible pathway to overcome this barrier involves eliciting mental models behind policy decisions to allow better representation of human agency, changing perspectives to better understand divergent points of view, and refining strategies through explicit theories of change. Games can help decision makers in all of these tasks.

International audience ; 21 Terminos Lagoon is a 2000 km 2 wide coastal lagoon linked to the largest river catchment in Mesoamerica. Economic 22 development, together with its ecological importance, led the Mexican government to pronounce Terminos Lagoon and 23 its surrounding wetlands as a Federal protected area for flora and fauna in 1994. It is characterized by small temperature 24 fluctuations but with two distinct seasons (wet and dry) that control the biological, geochemical and physical processes 25 and components. This paper presents a review of available information on Terminos Lagoon. The review shows that 26 diversity of benthic communities is structured by the balance between marine and riverine inputs and that this 27 structuration strongly influences the benthic metabolism and its coupling with the biogeochemistry of the water column. 28 The paper also presents a number of specific drivers and recommendations for a long term environmental survey strategy 29 in the context of expected Global Change in the Centro America region. 30 31
