A Generalized Deforestation and Land-Use Change Scenario Generator for Use in Climate Modelling Studies
A new deforestation and land-use change scenario generator model (FOREST-SAGE) is presented that is designed to interface directly with dynamic vegetation models used in latest generation earth system models. The model requires a regional-scale scenario for aggregate land-use change that may be time-dependent, provided by observational studies or by regional land-use change/economic models for ...
متن کاملPredictive Modelling of Contagious Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon
Tropical forests are diminishing in extent due primarily to the rapid expansion of agriculture, but the future magnitude and geographical distribution of future tropical deforestation is uncertain. Here, we introduce a dynamic and spatially-explicit model of deforestation that predicts the potential magnitude and spatial pattern of Amazon deforestation. Our model differs from previous models in...

15 صفحه اولApplication of Object Based Approach to Heterogeneous Land Cover/use
While analyzing satellite or aerial images different inconveniences can have negative effects on final classification accuracy. The objective of this paper is to expose the problems that were faced while classifying land use and land cover over two study areas in Slovenia. Two differently covered areas were chosen intentionally; the intensive agricultural area of Gornja Radgona in NorthEastern ...
متن کاملDeforestation, land-use change and REDD
Unasylva 230, Vol. 59, 2008 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s fourth assessment report (IPCC, 2007) estimated that the forest sector contributes 17.4 percent of all greenhouse gases from anthropogenic sources; most of this is due to deforestation and forest degradation. The Stern Review on the economics of climate change (Stern, 2007), furthermore, observed that “curbing deforesta...
