Simulation of Soil Erosion to Support Sustainable Land Management in the Mo River Basin (Togo, West Africa)
This paper examines possible management pathways to address soil erosion issues due to
improper land management and landform patterns. Therefore, a landscape management and
planning tool (LAMPT), a spatially explicit model ...
Agent-based modeling of complex social–ecological feedback loops to assess multi-dimensional trade-offs in dryland ecosystem services
Context: Recent conceptual developments in ecosystem services research have revealed the need to elucidate the complex and unintended relationships between humans and the environment if we are to better understand and ...
Land use change and ecosystem services in mountainous watersheds: Predicting the consequences of environmental policies with cellular automata and hydrological modeling
Integrated model systems that simulate land use and land cover change (LUCC) and associated changes of ecosystem services (ES) are increasingly important for supporting policies and management decisions. However, only few ...
Mapping soil erosion hotspots and assessing the potential impacts of land management practices in the highlands of Ethiopia
An enormous effort is underway in Ethiopia to address soil erosion and restore overall land productivity.
Modelling and participatory approaches can be used to delineate erosion hotspots, plan site- and context-specific ...
Assessment of multifunctional landscapes dynamics in the mountainous basin of the Mo River (Togo, West Africa)
In this study, historical landscape dynamics were investigated to (i) map the land
use/cover types for the years 1972, 1987, 2000 and 2014; (ii) determine the types and processes
of landscape dynamics; and (iii) assess the ...
Impact of Land-use/cover Change on Tree Species Diversity in Dry Forestland in Southeastern Senegal
Given that land use/cover change is one of the major drivers of biodiversity loss, yet this
impact remains poorly quantified. This study aims to estimate the impact of land
use/cover change on tree diversity in the Missirah ...
