Mental landscape: landscape as idea and concept

It is argued that the protection of landscape diversity is as important as the protection of bio‐diversity, in a world where an accelerating rate of technological change is forcing cultural landscapes to change in the direction of greater uniformity.     

Refining landscape change models through outlier analysis in the Muskegon watershed of Michigan

Balancing natural resource protection and urban development is of concern to researchers, planners and citizens who are aware of the environmental, social and economic impacts of urban land use. Land-use change models can assist in finding this balance. An objective of this research was to build a better model of land-use change by integrating quantitative and qualitative techniques. A modelling approach is presented that combines statistical logistic regression with field-based outlier analysis. To this end, a collaborative effort between researchers, who are adept at building models, and local experts, who better understand the dynamics of landscape change in their communities, was undertaken. The findings indicate that this modelling approach is successful in improving overall model performance, as measured by pseudo r-squared value, and identifying additional drivers of land-use change, namely zoning, soil suitability and distance to highway interchange. Most importantly, this collaborative modelling process, involving researchers and local planners, has practical utility for land-use decision making.

On change in the landscape

Research in landscape history/archaeology frequently concerns studies of human interventions in the cultural landscape. Decisions are seen to produce interventions that change a setting in some way, and each combination of decision, intervention and result tends, often sub-consciously, to be regarded as an episode of change or a discrete chapter in the evolution of a locality. Research will conventionally culminate in the completion of such an episode. The habit of perceiving landscape change in terms of discrete chapters or episodes distracts attention from the on-going nature of changes that reverberate around a landscape causing adjustments and compensations long after the termination of the initial intervention. The processes of adjustment and compensation endow landscape change with the character of a continuum rather than that of an episode. Examples from a long-term and highly detailed investigation of landscape evolution at Ripley, North Yorkshire, are used to illustrate the need for more refined perspectives on change. These perspectives should embrace continuing consequences of change as well as the initial impact of a decision upon a location.

Drivers for plant species diversity in a characteristic tropical forest landscape in Bangladesh

The importance of understanding biotic patterns in managed tropical landscapes is increasingly recognised. Bangladesh is a country with a long human land-use history and constitutes almost a blind spot in vegetation science on the landscape scale. Here, we analyse patterns and drivers of plant species richness and community composition along a land-use intensity gradient in a forest landscape including tea gardens, tree plantations and nature reserves (Satchari Reserved Forest) based on multivariate approaches and variation partitioning. We find richness as well as composition of tree and understory species to directly relate to a disturbance gradient that reflects protection status and elevation. This is astonishing, as the range in elevation (70 m) is small. Topography and protection remain significant drivers of biodiversity after correcting for human disturbances. While tree and non-tree species richness were positively correlated, they differ considerably in their relation to other environmental or disturbance variables as well as in the spatial richness pattern. The disturbance regime particularly structures tree species richness and composition in protected areas. We conclude by highlighting the importance of explicitly integrating human–biosphere interactions in any nature protection strategy for the study region.     

Conservation planning within a framework of landscape planning in Slovenia

Within the landscape planning practice, three approaches of the environmental protection or conservation activity can be distinguished: definition of the land reserves, environmental impact assessments and vulnerability analyses. These three approaches are used in different administrative, social, and professional contexts, although they are oriented towards the same protection or conservation goals and they share the same basic conceptions. The three approaches demonstrate positive aspects as well as some drawbacks. To understand their real nature it is essential to see them as special steps in a planning process. The latter is represented, in this case, by a rational problem-solving paradigm.Protection through reserves can be defined as planning ‘in advance’ like the definition of environmental protection standards. The environmental impact assessment enters the planning process at its end after the solutions have already been formulated, thus it operates ex post. The vulnerability analyses represent a part of the solution-searching procedure within the planning process. The three approaches demonstrate different attitudes towards the planning alternatives. The first one totally ignores them. The second one is limited to the alternatives that come out of the planning process, which by definition, does not consider conservation requirements. It normally assesses a restricted number of alternatives. The third one investigates the entire field of possible solutions.The alternatives are the most fundamental issue in the conservation activity because they represent the only possible way for resolution of many conflict situations.
