Interactively modelling land profitability to estimate European agricultural and forest land use under future scenarios of climate, socio-economics and adaptation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Studies of climate change impacts on agricultural land use generally consider sets of climates combined with fixed socio-economic scenarios, making it impossible to compare the impact of specific factors within these scenario sets. Analysis of the impact

Production–Living–Ecological Spatial Function Identification and Pattern Analysis Based on Multi-Source Geographic Data and Machine Learning

open access: yesLand, 2023
Land use cannot be simply understood as land cover. The same land may carry different functions, such as production, living, and ecological applications; the dominant function of land will affect and restrict other uses.

Land-use intensification effects on functional properties in tropical plant communities [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Applications, 2015
AbstractThere is consensus that plant diversity and ecosystem processes are negatively affected by land‐use intensification (LUI), but, at the same time, there is empirical evidence that a large heterogeneity can be found in the responses. This heterogeneity is especially poorly understood in tropical ecosystems.We evaluated changes in community ...

Land use trade-offs and synergies based on temporal and spatial patterns of ecosystem services in South China

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
A clear understanding the relation between ecological protection and economic development provides new insight into land use policies. Land use trade-offs and synergies based on ecosystem service value (ESV) is important to regional sustainable ...

From Land Cover Map to Land Use Map: A Combined Pixel-Based and Object-Based Approach Using Multi-Temporal Landsat Data, a Random Forest Classifier, and Decision Rules

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
It is essential to produce land cover maps and land use maps separately for different purposes. This study was conducted to generate such maps in Binh Duong province, Vietnam, using a novel combination of pixel-based and object-based classification ...

Estimating the HARA Land Use Model for Housing Planning based on Hedonic Price Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
HARA is a land-use model that uses a search algorithm to find the optimal spatial allocation of new housing demands in an urban plan area. In the model, the plan area is represented as a grid of cells.

Land Use Ratio Function: a Tool to Analyze Land Use Mixture Closely

open access: yesTheory and Applications of GIS, 1993
The aim of this study is to develop a method to analyze land use mixture closely based on geographical information systems (GIS). To this end, a function that indicates land use mixture closely ( land use ratio function ) is proposed. First, land use ratio function is formulated.

Consequences of Land Use Changes on Hydrological Functioning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Land use and land cover changes are well known to have a strong influence on the water cycle and its evolutions. Vegetation cover is the main component of the land surface that explains the behaviour of rainwater transforming into runoff, infiltration or evapotranspiration.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Study on Spatial Scale Selection Problem: Taking Port Spatial Expression as Example

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Spatial scale is a key factor, which affects the accuracy of spatial expression and further influences the spatial planning of a research area. In order to help improve the efficiency and accuracy of optimal scale selection for all sizes of research ...
