Sustainable land-use optimization using NSGA-II: theoretical and experimental comparisons of improved algorithmsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 36 - Trang 1877-1892 - 2020

United Nations outlined 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but at the
current rate of progress most will not be achieved within the desired timeframe.
Since a third of SDGs are directly related to land resources, it is crucial to
improve the effectiveness and efficiency of land-use planning. In that regard,
there is particular value in algorithmically optimizing land-use planning to
better s... hiện toàn bộ
Landscape-scale Edge Effect in Predation Risk in Forest-farmland Mosaics of Central EuropeSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 - Trang 927-940 - 2005
Ilse Storch, Evi Woitke, Stefan Krieger
Avian nest predation is known to increase with the degree of forest
fragmentation. A common explanation is that farmland allows for high densities
of generalist predators, and predators penetrating into the forest cause higher
nest losses at forest-farmland edges than in forest interiors. In contrast to
numerous patch-level studies of forest edge effects conducted earlier, we
broadened the spatial... hiện toàn bộ
Landscape effects on scales of movement by white-tailed deer in an agricultural–forest matrixSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 27 - Trang 45-57 - 2011
David M. Williams, Amy C. Dechen Quinn, William F. Porter
Understanding how organisms respond to landscape heterogeneity is foundational
to landscape ecology. We characterized seasonal scales of movement of
white-tailed deer (Odocoileus viginianus) in an agricultural–forest matrix using
first-passage time analysis (FPT) for 62 GPS-collared individuals. We
investigated whether those scales were driven by demographic or landscape
features. We found FPT for... hiện toàn bộ
Combining historical aerial photography with machine learning to map landscape change impacts on dry grasslands in the Central AlpsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 38 - Trang 2121-2143 - 2023
Elisabeth Kindermann, Norbert Hölzel, Camilla Wellstein
Striking land-use changes after WW II characterize the past century in the
European Alps with impact on ecosystems and biodiversity. Documenting land-use
changes is often difficult due to limited information from the past. Mapping
landscape history with aerial photography can foster the understanding of
human-induced changes in vulnerable ecosystems, such as the remnants of dry
grasslands in the C... hiện toàn bộ
A landscape-level assessment of understory diversity in upland forests of North-Central Wisconsin, USASpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 16 - Trang 55-69 - 2001
Beth A. Sweeney, James E. Cook
The study measured landscape level diversity of the understory plants of mature,
upland forests in north-central Wisconsin USA. Habitat types were used to
segregate the landscape along a moisture-nutrient gradient. Forty sites that had
closed canopies, had been undisturbed for at least 20 years, and were at least 8
ha in size were used. The percent cover of groundlayer species was ocularly
estimat... hiện toàn bộ
Spatiotemporal dynamics of housing growth hotspots in the North Central U.S. from 1940 to 2000Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 22 - Trang 939-952 - 2007
Christopher A. Lepczyk, Roger B. Hammer, Susan I. Stewart, Volker C. Radeloff
Housing growth is a primary form of landscape change that is occurring
throughout the world. Because of the ecological impacts of housing growth,
understanding the patterns of growth over time is imperative in order to better
inform land use planning, natural resource management, and conservation. Our
primary goal was to quantify hotspots of housing growth in the North Central
United States over a... hiện toàn bộ

Invasion of grasslands by woody plants has been identified as a key indicator of
changes in ecosystem structure and function in arid and semi-arid rangelands
throughout the world. We investigated changes in the balance between woody and
herbaceous components of a semi-arid landscape in western Colorado (USA) using
historical aerial photography. Aerial photographs from 1937, 1965–67, and 1994
were ... hiện toàn bộ
