Evaluating Anthropogenic Risk of Grassland and Forest Habitat Degradation using Land-Cover Data

Peer-reviewed publication
Agosto, 2009
Estados Unidos de América

The effects of landscape context on habitat quality are receiving increased attention in conservation biology. The objective of this research is to demonstrate a landscape-level approach to mapping and evaluating the anthropogenic risks of grassland and forest habitat degradation by examining habitat context as defined by intensive anthropogenic land uses at multiple spatial scales.

Studies and researches regarding the urban policies impact on land valuation

Peer-reviewed publication
Agosto, 2013

The authors develop a concept paper on the economic valuation of land. They detail the basic principles corroborated with the direct factors that modify the mathematical parameters and also the impact of construction on the land. Starting from the principles of Darin Drabkin, the authors develop, within the concept of a market economy, an urban land sale procedure by optimizing the control of land instruments. This study asks about the expected consequences of increasing the tax rate on the land component of real estate while reducing the rate at which the improvement is taxed.

Land use change and agriculture role in managing green spaces: a methodology for land use change analyses

Peer-reviewed publication
Enero, 2016

Land consumption is currently one of the major problems affecting green spaces, natural or agricultural. This issue is very important both for agricultural system functionality and, consequently, for its permanence. This paper proposes an analyzing tool of land use changes to support planning policies, in order to highlight the major determinants of land use that affect the permanence of agricultural activity. The case studies are Lodi, Milan and Monza Brianza Provinces, in Lombardy Region.

Knowledge Enclosures, Forced Specializations and Investment Crisis

Peer-reviewed publication
Diciembre, 2012

Like land before the industrial revolution, in the present global economy much knowledge is being enclosed in private hands. In this paper we argue that these enclosures have become a major factor in specialization among firms and among countries: both are forced to specialize in the fields that are not restricted by the enclosures of the others. We use data on 26 OECD countries over the 1978-2006 period.

Misure e politiche per contenere il consumo di suolo

Peer-reviewed publication
Enero, 2016

The consumption of natural, agricultural and forest soils that follows urban growth and infrastructural development is responsible for the fragmentation of the open spaces and the ecological connections, and for the functional disorganisation of the territory, bringing relevant environmental, economic and social impacts. The quality and quantity of this consumption relates to the ability to manage, at the different scales, a global phenomenon.

Real Estate Development, Highest and Best Use and Real Options

Peer-reviewed publication
Agosto, 2013

The primary aim of this work is to connect the Real Options Theory (ROT) with the real estate investment framework. A great deal of theoretical work exist today; it begun with Merton (1973) and Black & Sholes (1973) and provided new insights into capital budgeting decision-making and new models, used today by corporate managers and practitioners too. Unfortunately, the ROT is not widely used by appraisers respect to the traditional DCF model, even though the developers behaviour gives evidence to the model.

Contributing to the cultural ecosystem services and human wellbeing debate: a case study application on indicators and linkages

Peer-reviewed publication
Marzo, 2017
Kenya

Inadequacies in the indication of cultural ecosystem services (CES) are a hindrance in assessing their
comprehensive impacts on human wellbeing. Similarly, uncertainties about the quantity and quality of
CES, in real time and space, have hampered the ability of resource managers to precisely take responsive
management actions. The aim of the study is to demonstrate, how CES indicators can be identified and
qualified in order to link CES to human wellbeing, and to integrate them into the ‘ecosystem services cascade’

Percezione del rischio da campi elettromagnetici in presenza di servitù di elettrodotto: incidenza sul valore dei fondi agricoli

Peer-reviewed publication
Julio, 2014

In recent years, the media impact of the damage from electromagnetic fields generated by high voltage power lines on human health has grown considerably. Hence, judges increasingly require the assessment of the compensation concerning the land depreciation for the “perception” of the health risk from land market operators, regardless of the land use and the ascertainment of the health damage.

Evaluation of agricultural ecological environment in determining the capable areas: A case study of city of Esfahan, Iran

Peer-reviewed publication
Febrero, 2013
Irán

The nature of different activities in production, agriculture as well as distribution and consumption section, called as expansionist activities, largely influence the ability of the land. Production of consumable material, which is required for increasing population in various areas, and their attractions make it possible to earn more profit and it causes a significant pressure on soil and water resources and can threaten environmental pollution and human food security.

The appreciation of nature and landscape by tourism service providers and visitors in the Ore Mountains (Germany)

Peer-reviewed publication
Abril, 2015
Alemania

The paper presents empirical studies on the appreciation of nature and landscape in the Eastern Ore Mountains (Saxony, Germany) by tourism service providers (TSP) and visitors. Attractive landscape and experience of nature are the most important reasons to visit this region and to spend leisure time there. Particularly mountain meadows, raised bogs and mixed forests are highly appreciated. Deforestation, industrial development and the decline of biodiversity would reduce attractiveness for visitors.

Ecosystem Services at the Landscape Scale: the Need for Integrative Approaches

Peer-reviewed publication
Enero, 2010

During the symposium “Ecosystem Services at the Landscape Scale” from the EU-IALE conference 2009, several
challenges for future research on approaches to use the concept of ecosystem services at the landscape scale were
identified, focussing on the need for integration. Three main research directions were discussed, (i) the definition
of the potentials and limitations of the ecosystem service approach for landscape analysis, (ii) the identification of
