Human migration to and from rural areas is so prominent and persistent globally that land system science must understand how the movement of people is integral to land system transitions both at the origin of migration and at its destination. With a focus on Latin America, we review research on how land change affects migration and how migration affects land systems, to demonstrate that the relationship is complex and context-specific. Various types of migration evidence the challenges of managing land for multiple goals and the needs of diverse groups. A perspective that connects land change in multiple locations is needed. In particular, concepts of telecoupling and translocality can help to further understanding of how globalized economic systems link changes across distant places and capture the economic and non-economic processes that accompany migration and shape land change in multiple, connected locations. Land systems research must anticipate that migration will continue to contribute to complex land systems with multiple users and goals.

在全球范围内，人类往返农村地区的移民非常重要和持久，以至于土地系统科学必须了解人口迁移在移民起源和目的地如何成为土地系统转型不可或缺的一部分。我们以拉丁美洲为重点，回顾了有关土地变化如何影响移民以及移民如何影响土地系统的研究，以证明这种关系是复杂的且因地制宜。各种类型的移民证明了为多个目标管理土地和不同群体的需求所面临的挑战。需要一个将多个地方的土地变化联系起来的观点。尤其是，远程耦合和跨地域的概念可以帮助进一步了解全球化的经济系统如何将遥远的地方的变化联系起来，并捕获伴随迁移和塑造多个相连位置的土地变化的经济和非经济过程。土地系统研究必须预期移民将继续为具有多个用户和目标的复杂土地系统做出贡献。
