smaller areas. The A. argues that not only the location within designated areas but also the spatial parameters and configuration of new woodlands must be considered. Two methods (forest pictures and gradient pictures) are presented.

The preconditions for applying GIS-based location-allocation analysis for health service planning in rural Ghana are examined in terms of data availability and quality. A vector-based transport model of the region is established by merging data from
Location-specific cumulative distribution function (LSCDF) : an alternative to spatial correlation analysis
The paper presents an approach for spatial correlation analysis for count variables by comparing their cumulative spatial distributions. Using the concept of LSCDF in classical statistics, it shows that location-specific and its associated K-S-like

Location and height of intertidal bars on macrotidal ridge and runnel beaches
The principal aim of this paper is to investigate whether the ridges are preferentially located on the intertidal profile where the water level is stationary for the longest time and whether the height of the ridges increases across the intertidal
profile in the seaward direction. The morphological characteristics of ridge and runnel beaches from 3 locations (Lincolnshire, Blackpool beach, England, and Leffrinckoucke beach, north France) with varying wave, tidal and geomorphic settings
