Introduction: The distribution and abundance of organisms are impacted by dynamic changes in the landscape’s structure.One of the main factors influencing ecosystem services in landscapes around the world at the moment is changing land use. More quickly and extensively than at any other point in history, human activity is changing the land. Research in the area of developing sustainability science faces this perspective difficulty. Land use change and the destruction of natural habitats by humans are not just local or regional issues; they are also significant contributors to global change. Only at the landscape scale can some of the effects of global change on biodiversity be examined, such as the shifting vegetation zones brought on by climate change. A multi-scale approach to sustainable landscape management is encouraged by a landscape perspective.Furthermore, the creative application of the common management paradigm to many applications in forestry, agriculture, and water resource management benefits greatly from a landscape scale. It is now clear that sustainable landscape planning and management are required. It appears that a new paradigm for biodiversity conservation is landscape conservation. The goal of this Special Issue (SI) of the Sustainability magazine is to apply sustainability as a fundamental conceptual framework to bridge the gap between scientific theory and landscape management and planning practice. Included are papers discussing a range of theoretical research as well as case studies on the best practices for sustainable landscape planning and management in various global landscapes.

Keywords: multidisciplinary approach to landscape research, land-use changes, decision support tools, ecosystem services from a landscape viewpoint, sustainable agriculture practices, sustainable forest management, and sustainable landscape management.
