城市土地集约利用是城市土地利用变化研究的重要内容之一. 了解城市土地集约利用的机理,
过程和效应, 有助于优化城市土地利用空间结构, 提高城市土地利用效率, 缓解资源环境约束带给 …

The spatiotemporal variation of any landscape patterns is as a result of complex interactions
of social, economic, demographic, technological, political, biophysical and cultural factors …

The rapid development of cities in developing countries results in deteriorating of
agricultural lands. The majority of these agricultural lands are converted to urban areas …

This paper proposes a spatiotemporal model of land use change based on ant colony
optimization (ACO), Markov chain and cellular automata (CA). These three methodologies …

Calibration and validation of models predicting urban growth have been largely developed
using internal variables. Further investigation is required to improve model's calibration and …

Nowadays, trans-boundary natural systems are facing land management issues due to
conflicts of two territories. Thus, land dynamics information has great importance to …

The Cellular Automata Markov model combines the cellular automata (CA) model's ability to
simulate the spatial variation of complex systems and the long-term prediction of the Markov …

The optimization of land-use spatio-structure is one of the most important areas of land use
management; constructing a spatial optimization model that is based on the micro spatial …
