Reports & Research
Agosto, 2020
Global

En 2020, las emisiones de carbono se han reducido drásticamente a causa de las restricciones impuestas por la pandemia de COVID-19. Sin embargo, la crisis climática, desencadenada por la acumulación de emisiones en la atmósfera a lo largo del tiempo, ha seguido agudizándose.

Innovation is an inevitable way to enhance regional competitiveness, promote urbanization and achieve sustainable development. The sci-tech park is one of the main land use types in the construction of a new town and the critical space carriers of urbanization.

Peer-reviewed publication
Septiembre, 2020
Estados Unidos de América
Eslovaquia

Astrotourism is considered to be a modern form of ecotourism. The main resource for astrotourism is a high-quality night sky, but this is very sensitive to natural as well as anthropogenic factors; for example, land utilization and expansion of urban areas often cause the negative effect of light pollution.

Land consolidation as a factor for successful development of agriculture in Moldova

Reports & Research
Noviembre, 2005
Moldavia

Since 1991, Moldova has carried out a wide range of radical reforms affecting its social and economic system. The land reform, which was practically completed in 2000, created over 1 million landowners among the rural population. Many of them entrusted their land to managers of newly created corporate farms. Others used their privately owned land to establish independent family farms. The creation of independent family farms (so-called "peasant farms") was one of the primary goals of the land reform. More than 280,000 peasant farms have been created, averaging 1,86 hectares in size.

EU’s rural development policy at the regional level—Are expenditures for natural capital linked with territorial needs?

Peer-reviewed publication
Agosto, 2018
Global

The restoration and improvement of natural capital (NC) in rural areas represents one of the main objectives of the EU’s rural development policy (RDP). In addition to creating environmental and biodiversity benefits, NC represents an important territorial asset and a basis to generate socio-economic second-order effects for economic competitiveness and rural viability. However, the regional capability to valorise NC depends on the specific regional context, needs and potentials, as well as targeted policy support.

Australia
Estados Unidos de América

As new industries emerge in rural areas, land use change can have important implications for affected communities. In-turn, social responses to developments can have important implications for industry. The idea that communities may, or may not, approve of landuse change has been conceptualised in the literature on ‘social license to operate’.

Peer-reviewed publication
Junio, 2014
Nueva Zelandia

Sustainable land management is essential to meeting the global challenge of securing soil and water resources that can support an ever increasing population. In Auckland, New Zealand's largest city, population growth is forecast to increase from 1.5 to 2.5 million by 2040 which will put immense pressure on the region's soil resources.

Evaluating municipal landscape plans and their influence on selected aspects of landscape development – An empirical study from Germany

Peer-reviewed publication
Noviembre, 2020
Alemania

In this paper we examine the question of whether and how municipal landscape plans exert a positive influence on and/or correlate with selected aspects of the landscape. To this end, a representative sample of municipal landscape plans in Germany and a statistical-quantitative evaluation approach are used to uncover correlations between planning and landscape development. As a result, we can show that municipalities which draw up a landscape plan have a higher proportion of natural areas and a lower hemeroby index, i.e. a lower level of human influence.
