No single model or scale can fully capture the causes of land change. For a given region,
land changes may have different impacts at different places. Limits and opportunities …

This paper describes the concepts behind the implementation of a multi-agents model
aimed to explore how marine activities respond to various environmental constraints. The …

TerraME is a platform for modeling and simulation of environmental systems that offers a
conceptual basis and services to build environmental models through a high-level …

Land change models require large amounts of data, and are difficult to be reproduced, as
well as to be reused. Some initiatives to open and link data increase the reproducibility of …

Many modeling and simulation platforms provide general programming languages as
interfaces for model construction. Some offers high-level modeling languages with …

Demands for agricultural commodities are a major threat for some of the most valuable
ecosystems in the world. The expansion of the agricultural sector in Brazil, fueled by global …

This work introduces the concept of 'non-Toblerian geographical spaces', where anisotropic
and action-at-a-distance relations are relevant. Non-Toblerian spaces arise often in cases of …
