Land in sight? Achievements, deficits and potentials of continental to global scale land-use modeling

2006-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Land use plays a vital role in the earth system: it links human decision-making to the terrestrial environment and is both driver and target of global environmental changes. However, decisions about how much land to use where and for what purpose (and the related consequences) are still poorly understood. This deficit is in contrast to the fundamental need for global analysis of future land-use change to answer pr...
