Influence of landuse on soil erosion risk in the Cuyaguateje watershed (Cuba)
. further examined to what extent landuse changes (forest converted into arable land) over the period 1985-2000 influenced the erosion risk, and the impact of different landuse systems on soil loss.
to perceived changes of flow regimes and landuse in the upper catchments of river in North Antrim. A need exists to closely monitor the hydrological characteristics of these catchments in order to calibrate more precisely the flood hazard in this part
Tools for the spatial analysis of land and for the planning of infrastructures in multiple-landuse situations
This study put emphasis on two fields of research. On that concerning the spatial relationships of landuse, and on that concerning methods and techniques for making landuse plans. A number of (interactive) computer programs have been developed
Validation of representativeness with relief parameters based on the comparison of two landuse classifications
This study compares the results of a conventional landuse mapping to a Maximum Likelihood classification of Landsat-TM data for a study area of 9 km2 in the foothill section of the southern Upper Rhine Valley (South West Germany). In spite
In spite of a widespread cliché of pristine nature, Alpine scenery is widely formed by human landuse. In the last century the change of Alpine landuse was dominated by a withdrawal of agriculture from steep slopes, wet and dry areas, followed
this landuse change, its driving forces as well as perception and evaluation by stakeholders, tourists and inhabitants were analysed and recommendations for action were developed. - (IfL)
The study was concerned with conditions, under which Holocene gully systems could develop, which are nowadays under forest cover. The AA. study the impact of landuse or changes of the landuse on the development of these forms.
The contents of the planning include (a) spatial division according to a series of targets and with proper evaluation of land resources| (b) projection of changes in landuse and land allocation in the short, medium, and long term| (c) determination
of scale of urban growth with concomitant transportation networks| (d) determination of the directions for agricultural landuse, pattern and structure| and (e) evaluation of comprehensive plan for the whole province. Steps approaching the final preparation
This geography program evolved from strong links with geology since the 1940s. Its applied emphasis on landuse and environmental problems of Montana fits into the mold of many public universities in the Western USA. - (DWG)
