Introduction Conclusions References

Land-Use/Convection/Regional Climate

This paper reviews the cumulative effect of land-cover change on local, regional, and global weather and climate. Documented land-cover changes from 1700 to the present are shown to be particularly significant in the tropics. Model results are presented which show the teleconnection of weather patterns worldwide result from these landscape changes.

GISELA ¬タモ GIS-based evaluation of land use and agriculture market analysis under global warming

One of the important future issues is how agriculture production can meet the future demand increase due to the population and the income growth. Global warming would give both positive and negative impacts on them. Agriculture is often expected to supply biofuels to meet the growing transportation energy demand and the warming control policy. GISELA – GIS-based evaluation for land use and agri...

Changes in agriculture and land use in Europe

Changes in land use and agriculture have occurred frequently during the last millennium in Europe. Now at the start of the millennium a review of how and why changes took place may lead to a better understanding of these developments. This insight based on scientific analysis and understanding may be combined with explorative studies to gain a view on future possibilities. Such an explorative s...
