Projections of land use change and habitat quality assessment by coupling climate change and development patterns.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Exploring future land use changes and assessing the habitat quality remains a challenging topic for watershed ecological sustainability. However, most studies ignore the effects of coupled climate change and development patterns.

Urbanization, land use change, and carbon emissions: Quantitative assessments for city-level carbon emissions in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region

, 2021
Globally, urbanization has dramatically changed land cover, causing a rapid growth in carbon emissions and related risk of climate change. This study estimated city-level land use carbon emissions (LUCEs) using a novel method based on the correction ...

A global overview of studies about land management, land‐use change, and climate change effects on soil organic carbon

Global Change Biology, 2021
Major drivers of gains or losses in soil organic carbon (SOC) include land management, land‐use change, and climate change. Thousands of original studies have focused on these drivers of SOC change and are now compiled in a growing number of meta ...

Impact of land use change on ecosystem services: A review

Environmental Development, 2020
Changes in land use and ecosystem services influence each other and such changes have consequences for human wellbeing. In this paper, we review the research literature on how different types of ecosystem services are affected by LUC, and the ...

Land Use and Land Use Change

2021
Humans carry out fundamental activities like agriculture, mineral extraction, and home building on land. Through these activities, they inscribe revealing patterns in landscapes, patterns that promote affluence, degrade habitats, and indicate growing inequalities among humans.

Using an improved SWAT model to simulate hydrological responses to land use change: A case study of a catchment in tropical Australia

, 2020
Land use change is one of the dominant driving factors of watershed hydrological change. Thus, hydrological responses to land use changes require detailed assessments to ensure sustainable management of both water resources and natural ecosystems.

Land use change and driving factors in rural China during the period 1995-2015

, 2020
Land use/cover change (LUCC) is the result of interaction between human activities and biophysical processes. Extensive researches have been done on LUCC in urban China, but the understanding on rural land-use remains relatively inadequate. Based on land

Land use change

Geoforum, 1984
Abstract Despite decades of interest by geographers in patterns and processes of land use change, the data base for such studies is at best fragmentary. In the absence of an adequate land inventory, it is difficult to see how an effective land planning and allocation system can be devised to meet future social, economic and ecological needs.
