Advancing Land Change Modeling
People are constantly changing the land surface through construction, agriculture, energy production, and other activities. Changes both in how land is used by people (land use) and in the vegetation, rock, buildings, and other physical material that cover the Earth''s surface (land cover) can be described and future land change can be projected using land-change models (LCMs). LCMs are a key mean...
