According to the pattern-oriented modelling (POM) paradigm, recently gaining weight in ecology as a strategy for modelling complex systems, patterns at multiple scales should be considered to reflect the underlying processes of a complex system. Yet, calibration and validation of urban growth models is typically performed with a goal function of locational (cell-by-cell) agreement only, thus not in line with POM. We therefore examined POM as an approach to calibrate and validate (constrained) cellular automata for the European cities Warsaw, Milan, and Dublin. For Milan and Warsaw, the model structures identified with POM outperformed reference solutions calibrated on a single pattern with improvements up to 25% and 30%, respectively. For Dublin, no good model structure was found, but POM did help to recognize this problem, while locational agreement only failed to do so. Furthermore, the model structures identified with POM were more diverse, i.e. including more driving factors. In these diverse structures, the importance of the neighborhood effect relative to the infrastructure and land use effects reflected the polycentricity of the city as well as its type of sprawl: from monocentric edge expansion in Dublin to in-between ribbon sprawl in Warsaw to polycentric infill development in Milan. We conclude that POM improves the robustness of urban growth model calibration and validation, and obtains more dependable information about the processes driving urban sprawl that may serve the design of instruments to limit it.

Although, previous research identified drivers and environmental impacts of abandonment, few, described the post-agricultural abandonment trajectories. However, examining the, driving forces leading to different post-agricultural abandonment trajectories is key to, understand how alternative uses of these lands can be developed to address the, environmental, economic, and social challenges faced in these areas. This paper, reviews the literature of the different trajectories observed after agricultural, abandonment and the related drivers and processes. Based on the literature evidence, we proposed a novel categorisation of different abandonment trajectories, with their, drivers and landscape outcomes. In most reported cases, lands transitioned towards, semi-natural landscapes and few returned to different agricultural uses after, abandonment. The most common driving force of the landscape trajectory was the, absence of land management where secondary succession processes led to seminatural, landscapes. Quality and state of these landscapes were variable. Alternative, trajectories were essentially driven by institutional and socio-economic drivers within, biophysical constraints and opportunities for (re-)afforestation, re-farming, and multifunctional, uses of the land after abandonment. While abandoned lands can bring, opportunities to respond to biodiversity and other environmental policy goals, the, evidence across case studies suggests that adequate resources with institutional and, socio-economic incentives are required to stimulate favourable development, mitigate, potential trade-offs, and support land management.

    Not just sand: The folly of dismantling the environmental protection of dunes in Brazil

    Soares M.O.Barros E.L.Guerra R.G.P.
    5页
    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 Elsevier LtdThe Brazilian federal government has followed an open agenda and land use policy against existing legislation in the past three years using the false argument that it hinders national development. A recent loss has been the repeal of national resolution CONAMA 303/2002. With the action of the Brazilian government to revoke this resolution, the mobile and eolian dunes are currently without legal national protection, and are available for real estate, industry (e.g., wind farms), and urban development, among other activities. In this context, the occupation of the mobile dunes promoted by the revocation of CONAMA 303 increases the risk of erosion of the beaches, damage to estuaries with mangroves, and destabilization of the coastline as a whole owing to the interruption of wind corridors of sand transport. The dunes are also one of the main freshwater reservoirs in Brazil. Therefore, the occupation of the dunes and encouragement of their impermeabilization by the attempted permanent repeal of CONAMA 303 resolution clearly puts the water security of Northeast Brazil (a semiarid region) at risk. This incentive to occupy mobile dunes by changing legislation will have a synergistic impact and amplify the predicted effects of climate change with negative repercussions on the sedimentary balance, tourist activities, and blue carbon sequestration. In addition, the vast quantity and value of goods and services provided to society and discussed in this article are sufficient to justify their conservation and a permanent decision from Supreme Court to keep the CONAMA 303 active.

    Financial sector actors, the state, and the rescaling of Jakarta's extended urban region

    Shatkin G.

    查看更多>>摘要：? 2019 Elsevier LtdThis article analyzes the role of financial sector actors in recent plans for the expansion of the extended urbanizing region around Jakarta. An emergent literature on financialization has argued that, in the contexts of wealthy countries, the politics of the production of urban space has been transformed by capital switching to the urban built environment in the aftermath of the crisis of profitability of industry that deepened in the 1970s. Urban planning and policy, in this view, have increasingly been shaped by the interests of banks, hedge funds, pension funds, and other financial sector actors. This article argues that a focus on the changing role of financial sector actors is highly relevant to the Jakarta case, but that theories of the financialization of urban production must take into account two significant potential sources of variation in urban contexts in the Global South. These are: variation in the role of the state, and especially the national state, in fostering regulatory, fiscal, political, and institutional environments to attract international financial actors; and variation in the sources of finance that are shaping urban outcomes. In the extended Jakarta region, the recent wave of proposals for megaproject infrastructure investments have reflected a historically and contextually specific interaction between financial capital and national state actors who seek to extend their power by maximizing their ability to direct urban development in ways that build political coalitions and feed discourses of state developmentalism. These proposals also reflect the current moment of capital switching from China, which has provided the Indonesian state with an alternative source for, and model of, financing urban development, albeit one that poses distinct geopolitical and financial risks. The result of this combination of circumstances has been a state strategy of engagement of capital, in which the Indonesian state has sought to assert new economic powers through the empowerment of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in urban development, and in which the state strategically tacks between various sources of capital to maximize its agency and autonomy. The paper illustrates these dynamics through an examination of the Jakarta-Bandung high speed rail project, a 142-kilometer rail project connecting Jakarta and the city of Bandung that is to be financed with loans from the China Development Bank and developed by a consortium if Indonesian and Chinese SOEs.

    How does the extension of existing transport infrastructure affect land value? A case study of the Tyne and Wear Light Transit Metro system

    Pearson J.Muldoon-Smith K.Liu H.Robson S....
    10页
    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 Elsevier LtdThis paper seeks to investigate the timing of land value uplift associated with an extension to an existing light rail transport system. It seeks to understand the amount of land value increase on residential properties at different stages of the infrastructure delivery process of the Tyne and Wear Metro (TWM) system in the North East of England. This is to shed light on the potential use of land value capture methods for subsequent extensions. Whilst there has been substantial international research into transport related land value capture methods, this tends to take place in atypical capital cities with buoyant land markets and/or entire transport systems. This is reflected in England, where research is less frequent in major conurbations outside of Central London, which are more typical of urban areas in this country. In response, the intention is to shed new light on this situation by updating historical research into the impact of the TWM. Its primary focus is the longitudinal performance of the 2002 Sunderland Metro Extension (SME). This historical appraisal of impact is sinnicant because it is important to understand when and how much uplift is generated. This in turn helps to evidence any justifications for subsequent extensions and funding via Land Value Capture. This study uses a novel time based analysis to quantify differences in property prices before, immediately after and fifteen years after the Sunderland Metro Extension (SME) was constructed. The original results show that property values increased immediately after the extension becomes operational, though no significant results were found 15 years later.

    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 Elsevier LtdNatura 2000 network is becoming increasingly important for ecosystem services but not all human activities are limited as long as they ensure protection of conservation values. Private owned areas should harmonize biodiversity conservation and other compatible land uses with human activities sustainability. The purpose of this study is to present a methodology for the assessment of urban use capacity considering restrictions presented in a Natura 2000 site in Central Spain (Madrid). This assessment takes the advantages of high-resolution images and point clouds LiDAR data using Object Based Images Analysis (OBIA). Considering different ranges of (i) tree height, (ii) slopes and (iii) the existing protected habitats, six scenarios of Urban use capacity were obtained. A canopy height vegetation was derived, and the maximum height was assigned to each delineated crown polygon tree. The implementation of this methodology proposes the largest potential urban area (Scenario 6) but priority habitats and habitats of Community interest were entirely removed from it. Finally, plots (1000 m 2) with greater or lesser capacity of vegetation coverage change were located. A total of 145 plots (6% of the whole property) with urban use low capacity were located. This methodology can be extrapolated to any protected area that seeks to harmonize biodiversity conservation and human activities.

    Facilitating the participation of civil society in regional planning: Implementing quadruple helix model in Finnish regions

    Roman M.Fellnhofer K.
    11页
    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 The AuthorsThe engagement of a wide range of stakeholders has become a key element in regional planning, particularly in the development of regional research and innovation strategies for smart specialization (RIS3) in Europe. The quadruple helix model from the literature on regional innovation systems has been raised on the forefront of RIS3. This comes in spite of the fact that the literature surrounding the quadruple helix model (i.e., the collaboration among the university, industry, government, and civil society) is still in its infancy compared to the well-established triple helix model. Our paper addresses this gap and explores how regional authorities can facilitate the participation of the fourth helix (civil society) and ensure democracy of the participatory policy process. We adopted a grounded theory approach and collected primary data through interviews with regional authorities in Finland. Based on 28 interviews from all 18 Finnish mainland regions, we identified three mechanisms for facilitating the participation of civil society: information exchange, feedback, and co-creation. For policy-makers, our paper provides recommendations on how to overcome impediments in the engagement of civil society in regional planning.

    Global scientific production on LADM-based research: A bibliometric analysis from 2012 to 2020

    Alkan M.Paulsson J.Paasch J.M.Kalogianni E....
    9页
    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 Elsevier LtdMultiple Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) related studies have been carried out in two decades. ISO 19152 LADM is an international standard and an abstract, conceptual model covering the land administration domain (including those over land and water and elements above and below the earth's surface). The LADM is considered an important component for managing and developing land administration systems worldwide. In the context of this study's, scientific publications related to LADM are examined to carry out a bibliometric analysis on LADM research from 2012 to 2020. The extent of this investigation is limited to the Scopus database for scientific publications. All databases belong to the most extensive peer-reviewed summary and citation databases. It is noted that this study is based on the same principles as the research published by Paulsson and Paasch (2015), building on existing knowledge and aiming to add value in support to the current development of Edition II of the LADM. In this study, which covers 2012–2020, 175 LADM related scientific publications were found in the Scopus database. When the distribution of publications in journals is examined, Land Use Policy has the most published manuscripts related to ISO 19152 LADM. This analysis considers author identification, type of paper, organisational issues, and bibliometric analysis components. The analysis considered articles, books, and proceedings directly related to the LADM and included in the Scopus database or conference and workshop proceedings. For this, articles and books were selected from the Scopus database. Also, the proceedings were selected from those presented in the International Federation of Surveyors (FIG) events and workshops on LADM. Overall, this paper aims to arrange and present the global scientific production on LADM-based research.

    Urban food policies and their influence on the development of Territorial Short Food Supply Chains: The case of cities in Colombia and Spain

    Reina-Usuga L.de Haro-Gimenez T.Parra-Lopez C.
    16页
    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 Elsevier LtdUrban food policies (UFPs) have emerged as a key mechanism to drive the transition towards more sustainable food systems, with cities as the appropriate scale for their implementation. The aim of the paper is analysis of the boost that UFPs have given to one of the most widespread forms of Alternative Food Networks, these are Territorial Short Food Supply Chains (TSFSCs). For this, the territorial factors that strengthen TSFSCs in the cities of Bogotá (Colombia) and Córdoba (Spain), one being UFP, are prioritised using a multi-criteria model based on the Analytic Network Process. Based on this prioritisation, the way the UFPs interrelate with the other prioritised territorial factors in both cities is identified. Consequently, the influence of UFP implementation on social capital of TSFSCs is analysed through Social Network Analysis. The results indicate that there are four types of priority territorial sub-factors on which UFPs should have an impact in order to promote TSFSCs in the two cities. The first group is classified as means to achieve the other sub-factors. The other sub-factors are classified as ends. The main means are UFPs and partnership linkages. The territorial sub-factors included in the UFP are in the design and implementation phases of the policy cycle. Furthermore, UFPs foster bridging social capital, with actors connecting unconnected nodes. Finally, some of the reflections on the implications of UAPs indicate that the promotion of participatory governance mechanisms involving civil society is an important element to include in UFPs, given their influence on strengthening collective action and social capital in cities. This shows that a territorial approach in UFPs can have greater results in policy implementation. In this way the paper contributes, at the theoretical and empirical level, to recent debates on UFP approaches and the integration of key factors for food transformation in cities.

    Using geographically weighted regressions to explore spatial heterogeneity of land use influencing factors in Campania (Southern Italy)

    Punzo G.Bruno E.Castellano R.
    15页
    查看更多>>摘要：? 2021 Elsevier LtdThe progressive artificial covering of originally natural surfaces (land consumption) is a major concern of today's societies due to the implications for the environment and the availability of land resources. This study aims to explore the local variations in the effects of the main socio-demographic, economic and institutional determinants of land consumption in Campania (southern Italy). Using data from official sources for 2020 at the municipal level, geographically weighted regression was run to address local variations through a set of coefficients as a function of spatial location. One of the main elements of novelty of this study is that it links research on land use influencing factors to such a high level of geographic detail (all 550 Campanian municipalities), while controlling for spatial non-stationarity and morphological characteristics. Understanding how the impact of the determinants varies across municipalities can help local policy makers adopt the regulatory instruments for land use management envisaged by law. The results show that the levels of land consumption are not aligned with the real demand and carrying capacity of several areas of the region, suggesting that: i) knowing the local specificities explaining land consumption is the prerequisite for preserving environmental quality and ecosystem services; ii) better quality local institutions are needed to curb unbalanced land consumption and to guide spatial planning in support of sustainable land management.
