Human societies have caused large-scale modifications of the landscape and observed the ecosystem consequences of these changes for centuries. Natural terrestrial ecosystems have been greatly altered through the actions of humans by grazing, agriculture, forestry, and urbanization. Natural populations have been fragmented and their numbers reduced. Natural forests have been turned into grasslands or crops, and shrublands in many cases have expanded. Species have been driven to extinction. The results of these actions through time are easily seen and quantified, and thus surprises are few, although the interannual variability of climate and outbreaks of diseases and invasive pests can cause deviations from expectations and hence local hardships.
