Information flow in the CLUE-S /Dyna-CLUE model (overview) [9] The Dyna-CLUE (dynamic conversion of land use and its effects) model is the adapted version of CLUE-S model, built upon the combination of the top-down approach of spatial allocation of land-use change and bottom-up approach of specification of conversions for specific land-use alterations.
the anticipation of process and effect evaluation. Intervention mapping is characterized by three perspectives: an ecological approach, participation of all stakeholders, and the use of theories and evidence. Although intervention mapping is presented as a series of steps, the authors see the planning process as iterative rather than linear. [1]
The process of land use planning developed putting into consideration those aspects, allows the identification, location and evaluation of areas exposed to natural phenomena, which allows the implementation of measures that guarantee risk mitigation. Good land use planning positively impacts the development of urban economy. [9]
Land change modeling has a variety of implementation opportunities in many science and practice disciplines, such as in decision-making, policy, and in real-world application in public and private domains. Land change modeling is a key component of land change science, which uses LCMs to assess long-term outcomes for land cover and climate. The ...
The land-use sector is critical to achieving the aim of the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 2 °C (3.6 °F). [18] Land-use change alters not just atmospheric CO 2 concentration but also land surface biophysics such as albedo and evapotranspiration, both of which affect climate. [19] The impact of land-use change on the climate is ...
Cumulative CO2 emissions from land-use change (as of 2021). Emissions from land-use change can be positive or negative depending on whether these changes emit (positive, brown on the map) or sequester (negative) carbon (green on the map). Land use is an umbrella term to describe what happens on a parcel of land.
In LEAM, a region is represented as a 30x30-meter cell grid. A discrete-choice model controls whether land use in each grid cell is transformed from its present state to a new state (residential, commercial, or industrial use) in a particular time step. Several factors, or drivers, go into determining the likelihood of land use change. Drivers ...
Land use policy is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering various aspects of land use research. It is published by Elsevier and was established in 2004. The editor-in-chief is J. A. (Jaap) Zevenbergen (University of Twente), Xiaoling Zhang (City University of Hong Kong).
